This is where the pillow covers are sewn. My husband was home early from work, so I went out to see what he had for lights in the shop. 20 minutes later I have a much brighter light system in my sewing space! #photoaday #365photochallenge #challengeyourself #brightlights #craftroom #sewsewsew #freshlook #icanseeclearlynow #sewexciting https://www.instagram.com/p/BsWe1NpFsph/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1trt4kigizstz

This is a little project I’ve been working off and on for the last week. I bought the main body of fabric just before Christmas with a vague idea of what I was going to do with it. I bought some navy patterned fabric with teal leaves on it to go with the abstract fabric, I had to buy more of the main body fabric and managed to get the 5 or so meters of it, all together I spent about $140 on the fabric, which is cheaper than buying curtain panels. #homemade #sewing #sewexcited https://www.instagram.com/p/B-bKx2jHiolYNOB5ndyNrDjgtRdspol1LX7P0w0/?igshid=6rclcax8h6dp

This is Wilson. He came with his momma, Millie E., to Appletree Quilting Center. He helped her pick her Christmas present for herself - new BERNINA 570QE with embroidery! This is sew exciting. #appletreequilting #berninausa #christmas #sewexciting #bernina570qee #dogsofinstagram (at Appletree Quilting Center) https://www.instagram.com/p/Br-9ps-H1_5/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=nbv2aggjkp64

Tonight was a private lesson with these to super fun ladies; we got working on cutting out the tee shirt pieces! They got all the pieces cut to size and squared up for construction. Their homework is to interface the tee shirt sashing 😁✂ we will start piecing in 2 weeks 👍 #sewexcited #teeshirtquilt #quiltersofinstagram #needleinkandthread #privatesewinglessons #beavercreeksewinglessons #beavercreek #jesyanderson #sewist (at Needle, Ink and Thread)

I made myself a bag out of some of my favourite hoard fabric, I am an anglophone at heart #sewing #sewexcited #homemade 🇬🇧 #unionjackalldaylong https://www.instagram.com/p/B6HMyjHnhUMTZABcMGgiMvVL23XjJ43j_POV8A0/?igshid=t57mv06cbrhv

I finished my first practice duster! I'll be making another practice one as I need to make some adjustments to the bust and the sleeves. It was so much fun to try out new techniques. #spooltail #practiceround #dakotaduster #serendipitystudio #sewexcited #garmentsewing #needmorepractice #learningnewthings #overlockstitch #princessseams #collars #ruffles #placket #bustadjustment #hem #sleeves #sidepockets #practicefabric https://www.instagram.com/p/BnL3etTBl_I/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=znf9mllmgtbe

Well, I’m finally making some cloth masks. This pattern is found on IThinkSew.com and has 4 sizes- baby/kid, kid, and 2 adult sizes. There is also a pocket for a filter, something like a coffee filter or another non-woven material, making it more effective. Wish me luck. Practical sewing is my least favorite, but I have some great fabrics to work with and my new sewing room really is so nice. #sewing #sewingroom #sewess #sewingforkids #sewingartist #sewingmama #sewingmomma #sewexciting #newsewingmachine #singerheavyduty #sewingstudio #sewingarts #pittsburghsewing #pittsburghartist #pittsburghhandmade #handmadepittsburgh #sewingproject #clothmask #pandemicsewing #sewingpattern #practicalsewing https://www.instagram.com/p/B_lf2xpA8ft/?igshid=x81basv9fkjw

The tooth pillow is a little wonky because I used quilters’ cotton instead of flannel (at may daughter’s request, but it’s what I have used previously), but I stayed up until about 2:30am to finish it, and the littlest is happy with it, so I am too. As I was cutting out the fabric, my son (oldest child) came through the room. I mused on the fact that this would be the last tooth pillow that I made for the children that I gave birth to (in this lifetime), but if they had children, then I would make them for their children. He said that if he had kids, then he would make tooth pillows for them. 💖💖💖 So, I’m definitely keeping the pattern. 😍😍😍😍 #sewing #sewingroom #sewess #sewingforkids #sewingartist #sewingmama #sewingmomma #sewexciting #sweetfamilymoments #passingonthetradition #sewingstudio #sewingarts #pittsburghsewing #pittsburghartist #pittsburghhandmade #handmadepittsburgh #sewingproject #toothpillow #toithfairypillow #family #familytradition #newtraditions https://www.instagram.com/p/B-8TY4HAYwQ/?igshid=zfwnpddsyym6
