Looking back at some of the older projects - a  gift to Cassidy a few  years ago - so much fun to make little purses.

Seems like  I have dropped out of sewing and the computer in general....I am back I hope!  

I have started a few projects and hope to start getting my pictures in order...I'm doing a  neat stitching class from Craftsy and it's  so much fun...it seemed an easy way to get back into sewing...my camera  is out and I need to work on that too...a beautiful day here...

Owl Have Some Owl Yardage

Have  you noticed all the  owl fabric out now? I really
like it ..I have a  few  pieces in my stash ...love  to make a baby
quilt or some fun project.
 
Think this  was  an  applique from Fabric Worm ..they   really have some neat
things..I used to order from   them a lot.
I  have  been  reading a  lot  of  blogs mostly quilting and sewing and
have  come to the  conclusion that  I am not windy enough, I cant cut quilt
pieces and  cant sew them straight...what  I need is one  of the  cutters ,and
someone to sew the parts   together!
 
 
These  aren't owls but I love the  birds  too...
