Moved into our new house last week. This is my sewing/craft room so far. I got a big sewing cabinet from my mom that is in the little closet to the left of the pic. And also have a HUGE closet attached to the room. I want to do a big cutting/craft table like (without the wheels) this along the wall where the white shelf thing currently is.   |

Working on some plushie commissions over the next two weeks. This guy I made for a friend who wrote a children’s book about a monster that is coming out on Oct 1. Making two more of him this weekend hopefully.  And I have a commission for two little plushie narwhals I’ll work on next week. Also on my list: postpartum cloth pads, fitted diapers and breast pads. |

That's adorable Dramaphile! I finished the top of a quilt for DS, now I just have to sandwich and quilt it (or pay to have it done)  |

Today I made two superhero capes that the girls will probably never wear. I'm still trying to narrow down the quilt top pattern I wanna do.

I'm finishing up my parents' 50th anniversary quilt finally...only a couple months late, heh. I printed out some photos of them from their wedding album onto fabric...still have to sew those onto the back.
My historical dress group is re-forming and this month we are doing Edwardian era. I am wayyyy out of my comfort zone! I just got a dress form recently, so that is helpful at least.

I thought I had a bunch of black felt, so I told DS we were going to use it to make chains for Halloween to hang on our porch. Buuuuuut, it was green felt. Mommy fail. I'm going to have to think of something cool to do this weekend to make up for it.

I’m so excited I just got picked for testing PAB’s new pattern! I was assigned the top length, long sleeves, and a hood. I can’t wait! I printed my pattern and I decided last minute to do a muslin so I’m going to hit Joann’s and see if I can find a cheapish fabric.

The shirt so far. Need to add the hood, sleeve cuffs, and I’m doing a band on the bottom to add some length. Pattern is drafted for a 5’6” person and I’m 5’8”. Also, diet starts tomorrow. 😂😂 The grey fabric seems to have some sort of run in it or something that only showed up on the side shot. I’m not sure what’s up with that. But I have a question. Do I do owls on the sleeve cuffs or grey? The hood will be grey on the outside and owls on the inside. Waist band will be grey.   |

Pistol For me personally, I would prefer grey cuffs.
