Sewing is a lot like life...sure, there are patterns for just about everything, but in order to love what you do, or love what you make, you have to change the pattern to make it your own regardless if the change is a fraction of an inch or the length of a yard. And more often that not, those choices you make to change the pattern do not work out exactly the way you hope. It can be frustrating and challenging, and sometimes you have have to rip it all apart at the seams and start completely over. Which requires patience. A lot of patience. But in doing so, you create something that is far more rewarding, and far more beautiful, then what you started with.

Fun new fabrics!

Oooooo I bought some new fabrics this afternoon that I LOVE LOVE LOVE! I love unexpectedly finding fabrics I can't seem to live without (or, at least I can't seem to leave the store without!) . Now, if I can only find the time (and the energy!) to cut some fabric for a few projects I am looking forward to starting. Hmmmm.....do you think my hubby would take Z for a "father-son" play date this weekend? I think I am going to suggest it.....I think I will do it right now! :) But first, I want to give a sneak peek of what I am going to be working with....
