Handy and pandemic appropriate Christmas gifts for about 35 people. Super quick and easy in the hoop portable hand sanitizers.

Favorite sewing tool right now. Like an extra finger but fits near the presser foot. LOVE IT!

seems our pillowcase drive was a resounding success. Look at this haul for Ryan's Case for Smiles. These will be going to kids in our local hospitals. 272 pillow cases!!!!

newest quilt just finished tonight. Full out quilted with rulers using several different ones. Definitely need practice and correct that tension but going to try again!

Fresh off of the sewing machine! Not bad for scraps.

Did a test class virtually today with Allison Spence of Meadow Rose Quilting and this is the result. Not too bad if i say so myself

100% cotton fabric $8. yard prewashed 59" wide buyer pays shipping about 8+ yd available each. PayPal accepted

I am in search of this fabric to finish off a quilt, need about 1 yd. Please PM if you know where I could find this.

Hey, y'all - I don't know who needs to hear this but if you DO NOT SEW and you have hit up a Stitch Bitch for a mask ... 1. 1/4" elastic has now become Unobta...inium. You're going to have to settle for ties or hair elastic or some other "make do" 2. Bias tape takes forever and a fuck to do by hand AND you get to give yourself at least 10 2nd degree burns - 1 for every finger and 2 left over because we're so tired we actually FORGET THE IRON IS HOT. 3. FABRIC STORES ARE CLOSED! You get the colors/patterns we have in stock. Now, since by nature, we hoard fabric like dragons hoard gold, there is generally a decent selection BUT if you are wanting Lisa Frank Unicorn print or aubergine houndstooth, well, suck it up. This is what we have and NO ONE is going to weave you a custom fabric right now. 4. Most of the solid fabrics are gone. Sorry. SOME are ordering flat sheets from a big box store and cutting THAT down to make yardage but your choices are pretty much white, cream, brown, 2 shades of blue, or grey. Black sold out long ago. Also, since it is not deemed essential, delivery is like 2-3 weeks. 5. DO NOT BITCH ABOUT COST. Fabric is NOT cheap. Seriously, like low end $8 a yard, high end $24 a yard. It takes a GOOD sewciopath 25 minutes to make one mask. $7-$10 is not even MINIMUM WAGE for a mask and materials. 6. DO NOT BITCH ABOUT DELIVERY TIME. You have NO idea how long it takes to make 50 masks, 100 masks, 400 masks, and that is what the requests are looking like because for every one person you know who sews, 500 do not sew and want not just 1 mask but 2-4 masks for everyone in their household. STFU and get in line - we are NOT industrial machines; we're human beings doing all the same life stuff YOU ARE and trying to mass produce freaking face masks. 7. All y'all thought is was so funny to snicker at the hobby sewists - the ones who learned from previous generations of women and kept the skill ALIVE. "Oh how quaint," "You know you can buy it cheaper," "Aren't you a feminist? Isn't this like 'woman's work' to keep you tied to the home or something?" I think some of you need to step up with an apology or two. Remember that meme last year about how if you don't have crafters and seamstresses on your Zombie Apocalypse team, you're running around fighting monsters naked? You thought we were joking, didn't ya?

ok this is my second of this quilt pattern. Little more challenging as more fabric patterns to work around but just as fun. Happy happy Kitty is waiting for me to put the dryer back on!
