Stitch-ripper (can't live without):

  1. I just love your pictures. I found your blog through a search for sewing blogs. I also teach my children at home. I sew in a corner of the master bedroom, a nice corner, but I don't have a full room. I have not sewn in years, and and seem all thumbs at times. Your blog seems so refreshing for married moms, with children, who work at home. Thank you. Lynn

  2. 'Snap' on the strawberry pincushion - I inherited mine and wouldn't be without it. :)

  3. You inspire me to 'unpack' my sewing room corner again! Like Lynn, I have a table in the master bed room, but a couple of weeks ago we had the floors in there refinished and my sewing things are still stuffed in my craft closet. I loved the flannel for Daisy's jammies - it looked like some 'keepsake quilting' '30's flannel I was admiring. So fun! My current projects are home decor - curtain toppers and pillows! Then on to flannel jammies for the kids!

  5. Anna,

  6. Sewing tools are works of art in and of themselves! Ditto the not being able to live without the seam ripper!

  7. Thank you for the refreshing pictures of homelife, proof that beauty is often found in the simple things. You make me want to learn to sew. But I am afraid I would be all thumbs.
