Food for the Sewing Soul


AHHHHHH ... I am at a sewing retreat this week. A room full of tables, filled with friends sewing by hand and machine.

I planned to finish a little editing work each day. HAHAHAHA It is NOT happening, I am sewing my brains out. And in the best style of those of us who improvise, I brought along a beeg bag of scraps and I felt certain I would be entertained. And I am. I started by stitching together strips of scraps, mostly square, that will be sashing in a project I plan to work on this summer (t-shirt quilts for my girls).


Now I'm making coasters from scraps.

Next pins. Stay tuned.
