wednesday january 7 2009 pdf pattern recomendations does anyone else love pdf patterns as much as i do i love the fact that you pay for them and then you have the pattern in less than 24 hours when you get them you save them and print them out yourself the only issue i have with some pdf s is that they have sooooo many pages but i have been lucky enough to find my printer ink at a few thrift store s another option to check out is places like kinkos staples they offer services where you can upload the pattern thru the web and they will print it out for you for a fee that way you aren t waisting your ink and paper i have yet to try this method i print as i need them now to the good part i am going to be listing a bunch of great etsy shops you can purchase pdf patterns from these are sellers i have purchased from and the items i have purchased ok let the linking begin keyka lou sweetheart shopper city tote pixie handbag business card wallet clutch ithinksew not the most concise of

soon posted by katherine at wednesday january 07 2009 19 comments sunday january 4 2009 sunday stash today s sunday stash is dedicated to sandi henderson and her ginger blossom line oh how i love thee i had several other prints but they were used long ago this is all i have left just lovely aren t they i have joined 2 new swaps thru swap bot the first is an owl stuffie swap the other is a foodie fabric swap i think for the foodie swap my partner will be getting a 1 2 yard of 1 of these or maybe i will cut 2 fat quarters from 2 of them not sure yet i am excited about making an owl stuffie my partner has 2 kids so i will be making 2 instead of one 0 i have to say the only downfall with swap bot is that you get points which is fine but it is difficult to fing good swaps that accept newbies anyone else involved in a good swap or know of a good resource for swapping let me know well i have to ends this post now my daughter is tugging on my arm making it difficult to concentrate not to mention very hard to type enjoy your sunday evening 0 posted by katherine at sunday january 04 2009 9 comments thursday january 1 2009 what a way to ring in the new year first and foremost happy new year i am so glad the 2008 has come and gone hopefully 2009 will be a better year than last it was not a fun year let me tell you but i am going to start this year off on a positive foot this morning i woke up to several emails they were for 3 custom orders for purses and wallets woo hoo the other was a question in regards to my woodland bloom bag i had for sale in my etsy store well it sold finally i sell one of my bags on etsy this made my day 0 i have already begun making a few more items to list in my etsy store i am hoping to stock it well and to take way better pictures i feel like the pictures i have taken do not do my items justice so i will be working on learning how to take better pics hopefully at some point this year i will get a better camera and a better sewing machine hear that hubby i have also opened an account over at artfire i want to give it a shot over there with their free account option there are no selling fees and you can sell up to 10 items at a time it s worth a shot there is also a to check out artfire click here it seems to be growing 0 today seems like it is going to be a sewing day i have already cleaned and everybody around here seems to be in relaxation mode devin and my hubby jay are playing the wii together it s so cute they are playing lego batman sophia is plating with all of her toys she is the master of disaster it amazes me how quickly she can turn the house upside down but she s so darn cute i hope you all have a wonderful day we sure will 0 posted by katherine at thursday january 01 2009 13 comments wednesday december 31 2008 i m an artisan what are you i am bored and was passing some time looking around the web when i came across this little 3 question quiz this was my result your personality is artisan you are both grounded and flexible you adapt well to new situations you are playful and free spirited but you are also dependable and never flaky you don t do well in conservative stuffy situations it s probably very hard for you to keep a normal job or stay in school you are always up for fun and adventure most people are too boring for you you take risks and bend the rules and if things don t work out you chock it up to life experience in love you tend to take things quickly but you have a huge problem with commitment at work you need to make your own rules you re best suited to be an entrepreneur with others you are animated and physical you prefer doing something with friends to just hanging out as far as your looks go you tend to be buff and in good shape your spend more time on your body than your clothes on weekends you need to keep active from cooking up a storm to running a 5k you wear yourself out it s pretty true except for never being flaky and the buff body part more like flubby my nice figure went out the door with pregnancy 1 i gained way too much weight i have a thyroid condition that makes it hard for me to get the weight off thanks kids now i have a womanly figure as i like to call it to take the quiz go here have a fun safe new years eve mine will be spent at home with the family 0 posted by katherine at wednesday december 31 2008 3 comments sunday december 28 2008 gift for my mom here is the bag i made my mom i was in the process of making a zippered pouch to go with it when my sewing machine decided not to work this was christmas morning before we left for her house she was very happy with her bag though i really liked how it came out too it was huge it would make an excellent overnight bag or market tote on the flip side i used a cotton blossom s charm pack by moda the lining and handles were made using unbleached muslin i really like this muslin it is a new found favorite fabric of mine the fact that it is in expensive and neutral is great i use it to line my tissue cozies too 0 it looks great with this line of fabric with all the browns blues greens reds and orange i ll be making another one of these bags real soon by the way the pattern is from joann s fabric store it s like 3 00 for the pattern there is this one for charm squares and another for jelly roll strips that s next on my list for my grandma posted by katherine at sunday

company of your friends family and good food i ll be back after christmas 0 posted by katherine at wednesday december 24 2008 2 comments sunday december 21 2008 one more down many many more to go as promised i am posting my sisters finished christmas gifts hopefully she will not read this generally she doesn t unless i want her to see something so i made her this bag as well as a smaller version of this to be used as a makeup bag then i had to make a matching tissue cozy of course here they are drum roll please both sides of the bag it is reversible but only one side has a pocket the makeup case and tissue cover a close up of the covered button and loop closure i love the covered button i also used a hair band for the loop closure instead of the ribbon the instructions called for i really like to used these as closures for things such as crayon rolls they are much less of a headache what i mean is a kids can open and close themselves b kids are not constantly asking you to tie their crayon roll they keep undoing over and over again just makes life that much more easy peasy hopefully you all won t get too tired of me sharing my goodies i just get so excited luckily our families live and hour and a half away or i would be gift giving early 0 now i have one gift completely done off to finish some more i will be posting again tomorrow hopefully with several more finished goods goodnight posted by katherine at sunday december 21 2008 6 comments sunday stash wow these weeks are just flying by here is my sunday stash again so soon at least it feels like it is too soon here are this weeks choices i can never pick just one to share 0 all are amy butler fabrics from her daisey chain line the color is rose it looks purplish pink to me two of these beautiful fabrics have already been cut and are going to be several christmas gifts for my sister she picked purple as her color this is as close as i had to purple in my stash i am making her this bag and this and this too i think it s a nice little set i will post pics when i am done hopefully tomorrow mid morning 0 i still have more gifts to sew and my baking to begin hubby will be home tomorrow so he can help with the kids and baking he can t however help with the sewing because he is banned from using my sewing machine s yes machines i have 2 of them nor can he uses my scissors i caught that punk trying to cut paper with my fabric scissors as you can imagine i had to lay down the law about my stuff just like with the kids my hubby was scolded and told to never ever touch my sewing stuff again i gave him a pair of his own scissors and if something needs sewn he needs to let me know and i will do it control issues what who me never hahahaha ok maybe i am a little bit of a control freak it is what it is 0 posted by katherine at sunday december 21 2008 4 comments saturday december 20 2008 handmade x mas gifts galore there are very few days till christmas as we all know i have been so

received by the those that have placed their orders i am so pleased that they love all of the goodies i have made whew i try to make everything perfect but still worry that they will hate what i made but they didn t here is a recap of recent items i made 0 from l r clockwise amy butler birdie sling with heather bailey fabrics small handbag with amy butler fabrics sandi henderson market bag boxy version with hb fabrics and another small handbag with hb fabrics ohh and look what i got for my b day aren t they beautimus hopefully i won t kill them now back to the purses and patterns i love the birdie sling by amy butler i have read before that it is a large bag i have to say i was still suprised to see how huge it really is it also has 2 pockets on the inside i love pockets i am happy with how my work came out just as i am happy with how my sandi henderson market bag turned out again anothe good sized bag w pockets 0 it was my first time using both patterns i am always apprehensive the first time doing anything but the instructions on both patters were great the birdie sling is just a lot of cutting lots of pieces but once you piece it and start sewing it s a breeze it also called
