I love it when I can find a Fabric sample book. My husband takes it apart for me, and I end up with lots of fabric swatches/samples of all sizes, textures, etc.

I have two more pieces of my advent scroll finished. Not stitched on the scroll yet but finished. Candles and mistletoe. This is a project I'm doing in Dotty Bee's slow stitching group.

Who knew you could make adorable flowers for your junk journals using everyday cotton balls?

I am excited about expanding and learning new skills in 2026, upcycling being one of the top items on my bucket list. I've been making pockets and patches and have a few of them ready to go. But now I'm going to work on some scrappy fringe trim. I've made this in the past and loved using it. If you upcycle, do you make trims, etc. in advance?

I started the assembly on a new English Paper Piecing project today. It will be a topper on the side table to use as a large mugrug placemat sized. I'll come back and post more as I get farther along.
