I started this blog to find crafting ideas, simple things to do with all my spare time. I got a sewing machine at a thrift shop and sewing notions. I like to make things for my home and myself. I will be sewing for my (adult)children and grand children as well. Hoping my family will join my blog, if not to sew than to keep up with each others lives whether good or bad. Also to make new friends.

Hope to be making soon. I an planning to make some baby blankets for some up coming babies in September and December.

Refashioned Dresses
I have also been on a sewing kick. First off I have refashioned this yellow Mexican style mumu dress, which was way to big for me. And the white one which was nice but i wanted something a bit cooler, Houston is way to hot to wear anything to heavy in the summer time, my Vickie liked it. As you can see i cut off the sleeves and the top half so i plan on using these pieces for a clutch purse.
This is what I have been doing lately, the yellow ones I made for my niece Ashley while i was visiting in AZ. The others I've made since getting back home. I got this idea from www.tipjunkie.com . The purple and red pair are from a tutorial at www.petalstopicots.com please go check them out for more ideas.
