Sewing Machine

My first Janome

I finally got my new sewing machine. I have been putting it off due to all the things that I have been having to do.... but I now have my new baby... my bad I meant sewing machine (key evil laugh here).

Oh, the bags, the bags I am envisioning making. Hopefully this one does not have a problem with sewing up to 7 layers.

Today bags... Tomorrow the WORLD... mwa ha ha ha ha hahahahahahah *cough* *cough*

Craft Expo & Fashion Show


Honestly, I didn't know that the picture was being taken
Craft Expo
I really enjoyed this expo. It was the first one that I have ever attended and it was a lovely experience.  There were not many attendees but it was intimate because I was able to give my undivided attention to those that wanted to ask questions.

Jackets Techniques and Tutorials





Today I have amassed a few video's on how to do jackets. I was just surfing on youtube and stumbled across some videos that I think would be good for the beginner as well as the intermediate sewer.

Technique: The Tailored Look

Today I want to share with you this video that I stumbled across on tips to help you sew like a pro. Yep, a pro... by helping you put a tailored look into your skirts or maybe your jacket sleeves (hhmm... something worth looking into don't yah think). I love little tips and tricks that help you figure out ways to make your sewing more personal and give it a little bit of added flair.


I hope you enjoy it. I thought that she was very clear and concise in her explanation.
