Sewing Projects

One of my goals this summer was to start sewing. I've been working on a patchwork pillow, but it's going slowing due to my lack of organization. In the meantime, here are a few sewing projects that I'm liking lately:

This skirt by What Would a Nerd Wear - I love that shade of yellow

Also this skirt tutorial - Pockets!

A make-up bag by the Purl Bee

This quilt by Posy Gets Cozy

Not a pattern, but I like this dress by Wikstenmade

Yet another skirt, this one by Angry Chicken

And many more that I can't think of right now...

Back to the real world

I just got back from a very relaxing vacation to Florida and am now dealing with the post-vacation blues.
Beach sunset
Walk to the beach
Florida gators

I've been knitting hats during my break. I finished one and started another. I also have some new necklaces almost ready to put up for sale in my shop that I'm excited about. Just need to put some finishing touches on them.

It's amazing how much you miss when you're away for a week. I've got lots to catch up on...

4th of July


Hope everyone has a happy and safe holiday! I'm off to celebrate by drinking lots of iced tea and staying in the a.c. I'm also planning some necklace ideas to put up for sale in the shop. Stay cool!
