Wild Flower Pincushion

I recently made a beautiful pin cushion to add to my sewing tool collection. I made it from free pattern by Anna Maria Horner. It is lovely and can be made using beautiful fat quarters or even some scraps fabric. The pattern and instructions were easy to read and use! I just love using it every time I sew. It looks much better then the old fashioned tomato and strawberry ones.

Summer!

It's Memorial Day! How exciting. This officially means the beginning of summer (well to me, I know the official first day of summer is not until June 21). I have been so busy finishing up my semester at school. I finished on May 1, so what have I been doing since then. Well, I've still been busy. But I have put together a binder of things that I want to make from free tutorials so I will be posting pictures as I make them and providing the link of each of the tutorials that I used. What can be better then free ideas. Why pay for patterns when there is so much on the internet for free.

Look forward to little girl dresses, a summer top for moms, tote bags, hand bags, a cork board pocket, an art folder for little ones, a butterfly mobile, and so much more!
