Sew Sally: Kimono Dress
http://sewsally.blogspot.com/2010/07/kimono-dress_9777.html
My musings on sewing and crafting and teaching. Friday, July 02, 2010. I made the Kimono Dress in the Heather Ross Weekend Sewing Book. I wanted to make it out of knit fabric, and I scored some inexpensive, yet stable interlock knit at my nearest mega-store, so I was willing to consider this dress a muslin. Yes, I bought the fabric to match my shoes. I'll be making many more! The photos dont show! Im curious to see. Thursday, July 01, 2010. Thats gorgeous, Sally! Time to open your own boutique. :). My lo...

Sew Sally: Jeans
http://sewsally.blogspot.com/2010/06/jeans.html
My musings on sewing and crafting and teaching. Wednesday, June 02, 2010. I'm still working on my Jalie jeans, but they are slow going. Most of my sewing projects get done in small bits of time, 20 minutes stolen here and there, maybe 45 minutes during nap time. I've found that the jeans really require a lot more concentration. The fly is done now and I'm feeling good about it. As it turns out, I needn't have worried. I had THIRTEEN metal zippers in my stash. It's been busy around here! Im going to have ...

Barbara Shapel: October 2011
http://barbarashapel.blogspot.com/2011_10_01_archive.html
Wednesday, October 26, 2011. October 17, 2011. So, I am looking forward to returning to this lively group in 2012. Thank you everyone for such a wonderful reception! Gals lining up for Show and Tell - I saw some great work that night! October 12, 14, 15, 2011. The tables were turned and I got the opportunity to take a class instead of teaching one. And what a great class it was! We experimented with discharging, foiling, bleaching, and painting. Throughout the entire three days of classes, Velda was very...

Sew Sally: Quilt for C + K + A
http://sewsally.blogspot.com/2011/09/super-awesome-friend-c-had-baby.html
My musings on sewing and crafting and teaching. Friday, September 16, 2011. Quilt for C K A. My super awesome friend C had a baby. We know the gender NOW that the baby has been born, but at the time of quilt-making, it was unknown. It was really hard for me to let go of making a feminine quilt (I really thought it would be a girl! So I let go of the idea of the quilt being for the baby. I just made the quilt for my friend. And she liked it. Which is all I really wanted. Saturday, September 24, 2011.

naicissetho: January 2011
http://naicissetho.blogspot.com/2011_01_01_archive.html
Sunday, January 30, 2011. First of all I want to say thank you for all the nice comments and advice you gave me on my fourth block. I wasn't satisfied about it, so after a week of tossing it around and around (in my mind) I decided to rip some of the parts and redo them. This is the result, in my opinion much better! I think it fits in much better! Kim McLean Flower Garden. Saturday, January 29, 2011. Two More Lollypop Trees. Thursday, January 27, 2011. I'm really loving the texture, the applique and sta...

State of the Craft: More Adventures with Scrap Strips
http://stateofthecraft.blogspot.com/2013/05/more-adventures-with-scrap-strips.html
State of the Craft. Further Adventures of a Boy Quilter. Tuesday, May 07, 2013. More Adventures with Scrap Strips. I was pretty pleased with Green. The second of my "sew a bunch of strips together and call it good" quilts. It and its earlier cousin Purple and Blue. Were great ways of burning through fabrics that were ugly or just not to my taste, or of which I had long, skinny pieces not likely to be of much use otherwise. Purple and Blue. Here is what happens when you start working with the concept of "...
