What’s new here?

West Hill Fabric by Heather Ross

Motivation comes and goes, but when I stumbled upon Heather Ross’ new line, I had the best excuse to purchase it. My second born son is part farmer and other part cowboy. West Hill was perfect.

How to make a Homemade Tea Towel

While I thoroughly enjoy the tedious sewing of a quilt, this project was simple and refreshing. When Ruby Star Society first released their chore coat toweling, I was intrigued, but the yardage never made it further than my shopping cart on Etsy until this month.

A Hand Quilted Strawberry Pillow

I had been hoarding the strawberry fabric, but Ruby Star Society recently mentioned they’re bringing it back. They’re going to print yardage of it again. They’re adding new colorways too!

Big Patch Quilt by Hopewood Home

I was first drawn to Susan’s (Hopewood Home) aesthetic style. Her eclectic feed on Instagram is charming, and her fabric choices are one of a kind. I love her quilt inspiration. Her gardens are stunning. And I’ve saved numerous pictures of her home decor for inspiration in my own home.

How to Make a Pillow Cover with a Zipper

These are rather simple to make if you have the patience to learn how to put in a zipper. If you don’t want to tackle the zipper, try an envelope pillow cover instead.

How do you sew a pillow cover with a zipper? Here’s a tutorial.

Christmas Fabric by Rifle Paper Co.

(Please note that affiliate links have been used in this post.) I found a favorite this year, and I thought I’d share them. Actually, my sister requested a Christmas pillow…

The Gypsum Skirt

Sewing my own clothes has been a bit of a sheepish endeavor for me. I’m fascinated by it, yet I hesitate to talk of it with most people. It’s a foreign concept to many people. For many, sewing clothes takes an unreasonable amount of time. Or, it’s something that’s already been done by most people at some point, and the joy of sewing for them is gone.

New Pillows in my Etsy Shop!

I had hoped to have about ten of these done by now, but greater things in life are taking up my time these days. Right now, I’ve completed two, and they’re listed in my Etsy Shop. Maybe I’ll have more soon!

Heirloom by Alexia Marcelle Abegg

I ordered this, I believe, back in January. It kind of felt like endless delays waiting almost ten months to get it, but I love it. This is the third Heirloom fabric line by Alexia Marcelle Abegg, and I have grand ideas for my Etsy Shop with this bundle. Pillow are coming in time for Christmas.

Parisian Blue by Art Gallery Fabrics (and some other new fabric)

I talked about her shop when it was brand new, but I just got around to purchasing something for the first time from Liz Taylor Handmade.

Big Patch Quilt by Hopewood Home

My favorite part about quilting is the fabrics. I love the fabrics. The patterns, textures, and colors are beautiful, and when you combine them into a patchwork quilt, everything gets better.

A Finished Checkered Garden Quilt

Completely finishing a quilt is taking longer and longer for me. Hand quilting definitely slows down the process, but the flowers in my yard, precious children growing out of nap times, and too many books to read these days are also willingly taking up my quilting time.

Checkered Garden Quilt Block

If you’re new to quilting, experienced, or if you’re looking to use up 2 1/2 inch wide scraps, I think this is a great block.

The Linden Sweatshirt by Grainline Studio

Many mysteries of life have been solved now. Up until a week ago, clothes have been a mystery to me. I’ve sewn squares and triangles together for the last ten years of my life, but I’ve never sewn curves and hems.

New Floral Pillows for my Etsy Shop

Adding pillows to my shop is few and far between right now, but there are two new ones in there. I fell for the florals on this one.

New Fabric Shop: Liz Taylor Handmade

I’m popping into let you know I just found a new fabric shop. If you like fabrics I like, you may enjoy this shop. I thought I’d share it with you.

Homemade Underwear

I made my first garment. This is the third pair of underwear I’ve sewn. You may laugh, but this is quite an accomplishment for me. I’ve sewn straight lines for years. I’ve never embraced curves, and I’ve only sewn with right angle pieces of cotton quilting fabric.

Do Fabric Pens Work Well?

I’ve recently discovered a new marking pen that I love. I 100% understand the majority of you have likely already been using a water soluable fabric marker for years, but I have not. In case you have not found this little gem, I figured it’d be worth while to mention it here.

Homemade White Linen Pillows

My sister said she read that we should all be changing out our pillow covers to white linen right now. Spring is here and summer is right around the corner, and we need to freshen up our decor.
