Another class sample complete

I finished 2 little storage pods. The directions say to use regular batting but after completing one it seemed rather flimsy to me so I decided to make another one using iron on fleece so the pod would be sturdier. I liked it much better so I took the first one apart and remade it […]

Awake and ready to sew!

I planned on working on the doll right away but actually I need to first make a sample of 2 projects that I’ll be introducing to the sewing and quilting classes that I teach. Whatever I’m […]

Doll…almost done

This little doll is almost done. I was going to make a Christmas outfit but realized I didn’t have enough of any one type of Christmas fabric. It’s not bad just not Christmassy. I still have to make her shoes, sculpt her hands and I’m not happy with the hair so I […]
