Wow, it's been a long time since I've been on here and updated anything! Today I changed the dates for my 2016 Shows. Same ones as last year. New Germany and Bedford Fall Foliage are the only ones I do now. I struggle all year to find the time to sew as much as I want to. It always seems like something is going on! I need to make more time to create!

Spring??

The calendar may say it's spring, Mother Nature didn't get the memo. Looking at snow again today. When will it end? Depressing!

Had to cancel my show at New Germany due to a medical problem. Very sorry to do this, but it couldn't be helped.

My next show is at Bedford Fall Foliage Festival on October 5 & 6.

Where Bloggers Create 2013

Just a little late to the party...I had it in my head to upload the pictures on Friday for Saturday? Not sure where I got that, but I am a day late. Here we go...

I haven't really changed a whole lot since last year. Mostly just moving things here and there and hiding things I don't want to look at. I really wish my rooms looked like this all the time, but when I sew I am messy. I tend to start multiple projects at one time and have them piled up and spread all over the rooms. I cut or trace 6-8 of one pattern at a time, move on to another and cut or trace those before I start sewing and tea staining all of them. Those all go in a pile before I start stuffing and get ready to put them together. Not a great system, but that's how I do it. I actually started sewing for my shows earlier this year instead of waiting till the month before! Hid all the body parts and mess for the blogger party. Have to drag it all out tomorrow.


I love antique photos and old purses!

Farewell till next year!

Well, that concludes the tour of my sewing rooms for this year. As usual this was done with little or no help from my 2 digital cameras, my iphone and ipad, laptop and most of all blogger.  Just lost the entire post for 20 minutes, but retrieved it from drafts. Shouldn't be this stressful to put some pictures on a blog!! But like my brother, Rog always tells me it's probably OE....operator error!  Hope you enjoyed checking out my cluttered spaces and a big Thank you to Karen at My Dessert Cottage for doing this every year!!

I got my dates wrong and didn't get my pictures loaded yet for Where Bloggers Create!!!!!  I am working on them now....check back later today. Sorry I'm late!
