SEW EXCITING!

I’d like to dedicate today’s post to my mom who would have turned 76 today. Sadly she passed away 21 years ago at the too young age of 55. She taught me how to sew when I was young and by the time I was 12 I was making all my own clothes. Now in order to sew you need fabric, and every seamstress has their stash, usually a ridiculously large stash that you’ll never put a dent in but you keep adding to it, buying fabric that you just need to have! I think we sew as an excuse to buy fabric! She got to see my art in a lot of places but I think she would have gotten a real kick out of going into joann fabric stores and seeing so many of my prints. I haven’t sewn in a few years now but this weekend I did add to my stash, just in case…!


Here is just a little sampling of what I have there, also a couple of links to more.
