A little over a year ago I took my first sewing class. I was incredibly nervous because I knew next to nothing about sewing, but very excited. I fumbled around the class with about 7 other women with varied experiences using a sewing machine. Once I found my bearings and settled into my task I calmed myself and managed to complete the project. Two and a half hours later, I emerged with a pink and green pillow case that is proudly displayed on a wall in my home.

Of course, I haven’t used it because it’s turned into an heirloom; A piece that makes me proud. Since that time I have scoured the internet searching for sewing 101 tutorials and sewing/crafting blogs. And I have shamefully emerged myself into the abyss of fabric that lines the shelves of my local craft store.

I’ve been bitten by the crafting bug. And I’m loving every minute of it. I hope you enjoy my projects. I certainly love creating them!
