Sew Thinky Linky and Progress

 Sew Thinky Thursday again! Emily has a new question. Don't forget to check out her blog  Mommy's Nap Time  to see her adventures at Quiltcon!!! Here's our question for this week: Tell us about your sewing friends. Have your fabric tastes changed by having friends who like to sew? Do you like the same things or are you completely opposite? I think my fabric taste changes just about every day. I have favorites and if I pile all my fabric in one place I would see that I have way more of some colors than another but I feel like a seed in a giant seed pod. I have been starting to stretch and grow in several directions. I have always liked crafty things and dabbling in this and that. I am sure you have heard the saying "jack of all trades but master of none" ...that is me.  I love being around all the new blogging friends since I started my blog. I feel everyday is a learning experience.  I see a quilt-a-long and I want to do that but before the minut

WIP and ...a finish to wear!

I joined in the Linky this week with Lee at  Freshly Pieced   to keep the progress going on some small projects I have. This week I decided to try my luck with a hexi template my mom gave me and see what I could come up with. The verdict is still out but I am working with greens and black/gray and that I love! Stay tuned on that one.  Here is a Make it and Wear it Finish for the month! I cut this top out back in the fall and then set it aside when my mom passed and I hurt my back.  Now it is finished and I am really excited but...gained some weight and hope to lose it before it is nice enough out for me to wear it. :) It is Simplicity pattern 1884. Went together pretty easy and love the silky featherish fabric! Hope I can wear it soon.
