And the holidays are coming. Maybe even a little faster than we'd like to think about. So today is about sharing some of the perfect-for-a-gift projects that we've shared in the past few years. Like this Christmas Village pillow - the pattern for this 16" x 26" pillow can be found on this July 14,...

It's still July so we must still be talking about Christmas...

Christmas Village...

You know I love house blocks, right? Complicated or simple... especially simple. I've called this pillow Township. I made it a few years ago using one of my most favorite collections, Countdown to Christmas by Sweetwater . I had planned to make an updated version... actually two. One top is pieced...

Christmas in July ~ Candy Canes

I love candy canes. While I'm quite partial to the edible kind, most of the candy canes I have at the holidays are made of cotton. Many years ago, a friend had a big bucket full of these, all striped. Every time she'd see a red and white stripe fabric, she'd buy a little bit to add a few new canes...

Pillows and challenges...

We've got a pillow-palooza in the office! It was the first week of January and we were flush with the thought of a new year, a fresh start, good resolutions to be more productive. Let's plan ahead - get an early start on sewing projects. It seemed like a good idea. Most everyone here sews and likes...

July. Christmas. Ready.

Okay, maybe not completely. Probably not at all. (Someone - walks like a duck... talks like a duck... - has "borrowed" everything I've made so far for "other purposes".) So I may consider hiding the little bags I made for today. Bags like this have been around for years and years; there have been...
