Pincushion

Hey, I made “something”.

Its totally crooked and wonky, but its TINY at appx 3″ by 3″, which is why I included the ruler in the pics. I still need some stuffing and a hand-sewing needle to finish it off.
Fabric Stash

I’m pretty much a quilting/sewing nub at this point, and so I don’t have much of a ‘stash’ to speak of. Yet.
muh leetle stash
Consists of mostly quarters, and a charm pack and some odds and ends I got from Erin D.
Just Bought A Sewing Machine.
Posted by Erin | Filed under General
Inspired by Erin D from work and her new quilting hobby, I’ve decided it looks like much fun and decided to take the first step myself by buying a sewing machine.
I already have a crap ton of ideas of stuff I want to make/do (even besides quilts). First I’m going to have to relearn the basics of sewing on the machine. I took a semester of sewing in 8th grade, some 17 years ago. I have a couple of comforters that have lost their seams along one side or on the corner(s) that I can fix up as a first project.
Next, I think I would like to make a sewing machine cover, a tutorial for which I found on Sew, Mama, Sew!’s blog. Then, a slipcover for my Crackberry. Then, some LONG neckties for Barton (cause even the “Xtra Long” ones are too short). And OMG QUILTS.
