Today I am posing a question to all my readers! I’d love to hear your answers in the comments on this post! Maybe you will inspire a lost crafting soul!!
For me, most of my crafting for the past few years has been focused around paper. It is the one true media obsession that I have. Recently, however, I have been developing a passion for fabric… There are a lot of similarities between these two materials.
In 2010 I was gifted a brand new sewing machine for Christmas – a Baby Lock Grace. At that time I had never set my hands on a single sewing machine, but I had every intention to learn as soon as possible … That is until I received 4 new winter tires and a shiny diamond ring later that day! Unfortunately my aspirations of becoming a world renowned seamstress was put on hold for 2011 as I crafted an October paper wedding…
… But now I have no excuses! The new craft skill I would like to learn is (drum roll please)… SEWING (are you surprised?)
So far I have created 2 quilt designs – one for us and one for both our mothers for Christmas. I have also made some pillow covers, but I don’t think that will warrant a name change to Betsy Ross! I did use my machine to stitch many paper designs together for our wedding, but that really doesn’t count!
