I wasn’t exactly sure what I wanted to make with it, but I knew it had a beach feel to it. I looked through shirt dress patterns from several pattern designers and ultimately decided on… View Post

Perfect Mitered Corner Napkins

in Sewing Tutorial on 05/30/21

The Cloth Napkin & It’s Perfect Corners I needed a batch of cloth napkins for our everyday meals at the table. Napkins that weren’t “precious”; something you could use when you eat spaghetti. As I was looking at quilting cotton fat quarters, the idea struck me. I grabbed ten fabrics with some type of food item on them; grapes, sushi,… View Post

DIY Wedding Veil

in Sewing Tutorial on 05/12/21

Finding the Dress & the Veil I had the pleasure of going with my sister-friend (sister-in-law) to find her wedding dress. She found the dress she loved and she wanted to wear a veil so we grabbed a simple, chapel-length veil to try with the dress. The veil was purely tulle; no beading or lace at all. It beautifully complimented… View Post

Today I did my own plumbing work for our shower re Today I did my own plumbing work for our shower remodel. I was afraid to do it, but I spent a lot of time learning and preparing. The more information I learned the more I felt capable. The soldering made me nervous and my hands felt a little shaky, but I committed no matter the outcome. I followed all the steps (even if they aren't shown in this tiny video). John encouraged me and showed me how to turn our water supply off for the first time. This was a good exercise in being willing to try something new. I'm really proud! We turned the water on and it's holding tight! On to the next task. 🚿
