Sew Your Stash
Little secret? I had totally planned to enter this for Circus week in the Project Run and Play sew-along. I figured ice-cream shirt = circus food or something like that.

Circus Act!!
Oh man! Here I am, hours before a Project Run and Play sew-along deadline submitting my own entry. What's new? That's kinda how I roll. (Even though I don't prefer that method.) The funny part?

My Best 5 of 2017
It's been a little quiet on the blog front. That's ok though. At this point, I don't have ambitions to write a blog post on any type of schedule. But lately on IG (where I do enjoy my online sewing friend socialization) I've seen the hashtag #sewingtop5 and I went searching for what that was… Continue reading My Best 5 of 2017
