Happy Independence Day to all my American Sewing friends! It’s the BIG 250 here for us and there’s excitement in the air Today. I have a feeling that the celebrations and the fireworks will be EPIC across the nation! I am about to go make myself a reverse appliqué Flag T-shirt to wear to a 4th of July party this afternoon. Nothing like waiting to the last minute eh? Anyway, I will post pics when it’s all done. What projects have you all been working on this week? Let’s see em! As always: Big wins, little wins and anything in between; sewing related or not… share away so that we can all ohhhh & ahhhhh. Ready♥️ Set⭐️ Go🎆

I would love to use Taylor ticks and not pens anymore. Do you have any tips on how to do this and how do you do it if you do use this method

Yalllllll!!!! I have literally gone all day thinking that today is TUESDAY! I completely missed our regular What’s Up Wednesday post because in my brain “it was only Tuesday” 🤪 Clearly I am losing it. For me it Is VBS week at my church and I am The Snack Lady so I’m going to blame this all on needing to feed 75 energetic children not one but two creative, on theme snacks EVERY DAY this week!!! This grandma is tired!! So with that, I will save my what’s up Wednesday discussion for next week and suggest we just simply make each other laugh by sharing a gif that describes how your week is going so far. Share as many as you’d like… I will get us started. Here’s hoping that you each remember what day it is and enjoy every moment.

I have a few things that I need to do but want to ask all of you for some help or ideas. Clothing items number one:I have two skirt slips that a bit to big for me what would be the best way to take them in, sew a new seam or put in elastic with a button on the side seams? Clothing item number two: I have two sets of legging that I need to bring up the hem of the legging to be not so long, my idea is to pin it where I want them and then sew a new hem and then cut off the extra. What do you think? Clothing items number three I have a sweater dress that I do not wear so I was thinking about making it into a sweater/cartridge, any ideas or tips on how to do this?
