Fall 2021 Current Project #2, Week #1

The name of this wall hanging/table topper is Snowmen & Silent Night. This project is not a mystery, but the patterns for the blocks & finishing are being released individually on Mondays for 5 weeks. It is sponsored by Jacquelynne Steves on her website The Art of Home and is the second of the four projects I plan to work on this Fall.

Miscellaneous Sewing this Week & A New Tool

Sometimes it’s nice to just sew something quick. Pillowcases are one of those quickie projects I turn to when I just want to sew.

While searching through my fabric for my Fall Current Projects I found some Halloween fabric & since September is nearly Fall, so why not make some Pillowcases.

What Would You Do?

There are several reasons a project turns into a UFO. It can be waiting for border or backing fabric, or maybe it requires a new technique or skill or maybe something interrupted the work and it gets put aside.
