About Me

I sew, therefore I am. Okay, not quite. I've been sewing since a was a little girl for the simple reason that my mom made all of my clothes. I also love to read. I don't really collect anything any more, unless you count fabric and notions. Then yes, I collect like crazy.

Favorite Crafts

Sewing, sewing and more sewing.

Favorite Books

Military fiction, Historical fiction (especially involving Ancient Egypt), detective novels, lawyer novels. Love the Outlander series!!

Favorite Movies

Christmas Vacation, The Mummy, The Mummy Returns, Pirates (all 3); While You Were Sleeping

Favorite Television

Documentaries on how things are made, Food Network, HGTV, DIY, Everybody Loves Raymond.

Favorite Fabric Artists

Amy Butler, Heather Bailey, Heather Ross, Amy Schimler, Anna Marie Horner, Joel Dewberry

Favorite Fabric Companies

Michael Miller, Alexander Henry, Free Spirit, Japanese Fairy Tale Fabric

Favorite Types of Fabric

My favorite types of fabric are: 100% cotton (it really king); linen; linen/cotton blends; denim; cotton knits; cottons with lycra for stretch, cotton jersey. I also love the 4-way stretch knits. I adore vintage fabrics. I also love to work with and wear poly crepes and double crepes, silk, silk blends, chiffon (silk and poly); georgettes (silk & poly) and wool crepe. Strangely enough, I am allergic to almost all wools, except cashmere and wool crepe.

Wish List

Solid color fabrics, especially broadcloth, linen, linen/cotton or linen/rayon blends, crepes, double-crepes, cotton knits and jerseys, cording foot for my sewing machine.

I can always use: Thread, vintage metal zippers, vintage buttons, any kind of trims, elastic...basically any sewing notion, sewing books and magazines.

I currently love to make

purses, totes, handbags, children's clothing

Comment: Lillie loves her blanket and treats. The bleanket is the right size for her to move around. You did a beautiful job on it. It is so special. Thank you for everything. Wish I could give a dozen hearts.
Response: I'm glad that she likes her blanket. I had a dog growing up that carried a blanket around. She started out with a bedspread, but finally got one her own size.

Comment: Thank you so much Christy for the wonderful placemats, napkins & potholders. These are exactly what I needed. I never make these for myself, just for others. You get a heart for telling your hubby that he couldn't have them because they were for me. Poor Baby. I can't believe that you had them done and mailed so soon. One "Atta-Girl" for you.
