Happy Wednesday, ya’ll!\u00a0 Today is the day we not only share what’s on our workdesks, but also travel the world (virtually speaking) checking out the desks of creative folks from all over.\u00a0 Join us at Julia’s<\/a> to get started, it’s fascinating.<\/p>\n

My desk today shows a mish-mosh of stuff.\u00a0 At the bottom left is another version of Simplicity 2364 that I finished last night, this time in raspberry with the three-quarter length sleeves.\u00a0 I think I’ve resolved the fitting issues I mentioned in my review of the pattern<\/a>, and am ready to take apart the turquiose version and redo it.<\/p>\n

I’ll amend the review when I done and be sure to let you know the results.<\/p>\n

Have you noticed that this raspberry fabric keeps popping up?\u00a0 Last June a local, family-owned fabric store that had been in business since 1919 finally had to close their doors.\u00a0 It made me so sad, it almost felt like a death.<\/p>\n

However, on the up side, I got some amazing deals on fabric.\u00a0 I’d bought four yards of this lovely knit jersey for $1 per yard.<\/em>\u00a0\u00a0 When I got it home I said to myself, “What!\u00a0 Are you nuts?” and went back and bought the rest of the bolt.<\/p>\n

So far I’ve gotten a dress and two tops out of it.\u00a0 I’ve got a little over three yards left and am thinking of making this:<\/p>\n

(Click on the photo to get the free pattern for yourself.)<\/p>\n

Other things on my desk includes a Tim Holtz configuration I picked up at Michael’s yesterday.\u00a0 Ever since I took a class with Tim last year and made this Christmas Configuration<\/a>, I’ve been wanting to make another, this time\u00a0with a sewing theme.\u00a0 I’ve been digging through stuff left to me by my grandmother and mother-in-law (like the old thimbles) for special little goodies to fill it with. (I suspect the search for treasures will be just as much fun as actually making this project.)<\/p>\n

Finally, are not those little donut charms the yummiest things you ever saw?\u00a0 They’re polymer clay.\u00a0 Wish I had time to do polymer clay…<\/p>\n

Happy creating!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
