Witch’s Tea

Yesterday was my favorite day of the year.  I can't even believe how lucky we got. Every year I host a Witch's Tea sometime in October.  It is the one big event I host all year, and I honestly plan for it year round.  And this past week I pretty much only did Tea Prep... (I know, I know, working is important too... but this is more fun!)  I dragged the furniture out of my living room, set up a ... View Post

Introducing our Spooky Spiders Pattern!

I'd like to introduce you guys to our newest addition to our patterns: Spooky Spiders.  I'm pretty excited with how these turned out- Halloween patterns can be hard sometimes! (after all, you don't want to be sitting in front of your sewing machine making something that kind of creeps you out...)

Calmed the Storm Quilt

Finding the Best Fusible Web Out There

  I love using fusible web for applique.  It's so fun and easy and adds such a different dimension to projects that often couldn't be done any other way.  I don't know about you, but whenever I have to refill my personal fusible web supply, I find myself in front of the interfacing rack at a fabric store with my eyes glazing over all the options.  What do they all mean?  What's the ...
