Yep, with sweaty palms and lots of hesitation, I just entered myself in Family Ever After’s Sew-Vivor competition.  I’m not sure what has gotten into me as those who know me, I’m the one who hangs around just happy to watch all the going ons.  I am an introvert by nature and I don’t like read further...

I collect them for their styling and photography – makes nice coffee table books too, no? I see Penguin Books have read further...

Remember my post 3 weeks ago?  The no sew project I was working on were these wooden button paperclips (and the felt hair clips).  Did you work it out?  I bought a bunch of the wooden buttons a while back, and with no specific project in mind, I decided to turn some of them into read further...

I found these stickers stuck on my sewing machine. Do you think little miss is hinting for me to get her one of these?  I’m a bit partial to Hello Kitty myself and I love this green retro colour.  However at AUD 128.10 and not including shipping to Australia, this machine is not really a read further...
