MY FAVORITE KIND OF SEWING

Always my first love

Garment sewing, especially for the little ones, will always be my first love in the sewing world.

Since I do have a great granddaughter. 

Who happens to love things I sew her.

My heart is full!

These dress's were from a Bonnie Blue pattern.

Named Kimberly.

Keeps me very busy.

CHANGE IS A GOOD THING!

Time for a change

Our smocking group has been named.

Apple Valley Smockers

since it was formed. 

I saw it as a time to change. Not, just the name but what we do as people that love to sew and create.

Apple Valley, is used for everything--the word smockers, said we smocked things.  What every that is supposed to be.

So, along with another member that shared my thought process.  We changed the name!!

I had some banners made and although I am not

excited about this display at our local quilt show.

I am excited about the possibilities. 

Like I said Change is good.

It has been slow

Slow in the sewing room

Still sewing is happening and what I love to do.

Update on the quilt tops, they are off

to the long arm lady Patti and she will

work her magic and they will be quilts.

I let Zoe have  a say in her quilt. She met with Patti

and discussed the quilting plan.

This was all new to Zoe and I am so glad

I was able to share this with her. 

Quilt top lay out.

I will finish the quilt and wrap it for Christmas.
