I went to my 'favorite' thrift shop today and look what I bought for $7.40- The 2 blues at top photo would be enough, I think, for a purse. The toy story with Woody is enough for the body of a pillowcase. There are about 2 yards in the stripe/tie dyed.

Decided to make another pinafore in two different pinwhale corduroys. I've not put an embroidery design on this one as yet! Just tried it on Ophelie and it looks great. She is growing so tall! The little vest I made from some pieces of fabric t

Do you remember these? I pulled this old pattern out as I need to make my younger granddaughter a poodle skirt for cotillion and I realized this pattern is way to small. I made one for me ages ago as we went to a 50's party and I made 2 for each grandd

When you make the kitchen towels with the fabric toppers what is the secret to getting them lined up so straight ? I made one and it looked so bad I took it apart and will fight with it another time. Do you sew across the top then gather or iron them or w

Good morning Cuties, I need some advice, or your expertise. Has anyone ever sewn, a cotton fabric skirt, to a tee shirt? The skirt is not made. I am attaching cotton fabric, to the tee-shirt, for a skirt. I would think you gather the cotton, to fit the te
