About Me

My photo
My mother was an expert seamstress and often did alterations on costly garments. She once told me that I would learn more about sewing by taking a well made garment apart than I would from any pattern. How true I discovered this statement was! Recently I was looking over a pattern that a friend gave me. She wants me to help her sew aprons for Christmas gifts. After studying the sewing instructions a bit I came to a familiar conclusion; if I purchased a finely crafted apron it would not be put together this way. Who writes these instructions anyway?!

The "Kathryn" Diaper Bag











The newest creation from my sewing studio is The Kathryn Diaper Bag. This was a custom bag created as a surprise gift from her sister. We went shopping together and chose fabrics and trim. We discussed the pattern and features and most of the embelishing and then I created the rest. It was so enjoyable shopping together. I guess that is why I love doing custom projects! $80
