Sewing room to nursery: Matching paint to a quilt

Last night I finished hauling the last of the sewing stuff out of the sewing room. It looks so empty and will look even more so once my husband moves the furniture out and into the basement this afternoon. The plan is for me to bring the dogs to my parents for the weekend while […]

Singer goes retro for its newest machine

My first sewing machine was a Singer and I loved it. My grandparents got it for me when I was in grade school. It sat mostly unused until I found myself incredibly bored one day after I graduated from college and took up quilting. From then on I used the machine almost every day for […]
