I suppose if you’re my friend nowadays and you get married, I’ll more than likely make you an embroidery! I was lucky enough to be my best friend’s Matron of Honor at her wedding in New Orleans, and I wanted to give her something handmade to commemorate the special day. She is a huge Lord… Continue reading A LOTR Wedding Embroidery
I feel like my sewing has slowed down, but my creating definitely hasn’t! I recently became a fan of hand embroidery and find it’s my solace after a long day of work or when I want my hands to be busy but my body wants to be lazy. I like being able to make things… Continue reading An Embroidery ‘Til Death Do Us Part
I am lucky to have some really great friends and even luckier that some inspire me creatively. One of my good friends is currently winning at life and has her own New Orleans designs for sale at Threadless.com and now has her own Etsy shop selling the cutest mermaid prints! We met in high school… Continue reading A Hand-Embroidered Mermaid for a Mer-Friend
Merry Christmas! It’s my favorite time of year – especially now that I’m finished all of that stressful holiday shopping and am enjoying a relaxing 4-day weekend away from work! Every year, my Sit and Sew group gets together for Christmas. It’s a rare occasion for the husbands and kids to get together all in… Continue reading Sewaholic Stanley Trees and a Sit and Sew Christmas
When it was time for me to visit my friends on the other side of the world, I wanted to bring a little something from home to give. It’s customary to give omiyage (souvenirs) when you are in Japan. Whether you are starting a new career or seeing friends or family after a while, you… Continue reading Southwestern Coasters
Why hello there! It’s been 3 weeks since my last post and it feels like forever to me! DD and I have been working lots of overtime, including some Saturdays, so sewing and blogging have slowed a little. But hey look! I have some new projects to show you! And check out the blog’s new… Continue reading Pneuma Tanks for Mom
I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas! I know in my last post I said I would post again on Christmas Day… well, my bad. But better late than never, right?! My Sit and Sew group had our Christmas get-together a couple of weeks ago and it was a lovely and delicious time. We stuffed… Continue reading A Crafty Christmas
Now that Halloween is over, it’s OK that I talk about Christmas, right? I don’t know how many of you are of the thought “Christmas should only be discussed AFTER Thanksgiving!” but I am all for busting out the Christmas decorations right after Labor Day. Sick, I know… But it’s never too early to start thinking… Continue reading DIY Handmade Gifts
I was see-sawing between two themes for this week: matching makes (the PJs mentioned in the last post) or things I’ve made for my mom. I think the matching pajamas would have been funnier, but I need to take better pictures of them and Sooo let’s talk about some fun and easy gifts you can… Continue reading Throwback Thursday: More Gifts for Mom
I’m one of those people who aren’t embarrassed when they see someone else wearing the same dress/shirt/shoes as them. Actually, I find it very amusing and have made sure that DD and I have had matching me-made pajama pants… twice. But I won’t bore you with plain ol’ pajama bottoms on this fancy schmancy blog.… Continue reading A Renfrew for Mom
