Here’s what I’ve got so far for my Stitch Craft fabric collection on Spoonflower…

big fabric sale and giveaway
Over at I Have to Say, Randi is having a big Spring Cleaning sale in her Etsy shop, Fresh Squeezed Fabric (a long time favorite of mine!), and a gift certificate giveaway on her blog. 20% off everything in her shop until Monday, April 5th. She’s got lots of great stuff! And I envy that […]
Stitch Craft
One more new design. I plan to play with the colors and layout on this one a lot more. But this is the first version. I was aiming for a design that I could do in a lot of colorways…I doodled these little icons. I figure I can do just sewing, just embroidery and just […]
Hexagons, revisited again.
First I started out touting the miracle of paper piecing hexagons. Then I quickly figured out that basting in the little papers was double the work – for me, anyway. Many people swear by it. So I made this handy tutorial for hand-piecing with no paper. I still think this method is the best for […]
still moving the guys around
A few more designs – my favorites so far. I can see using these for box bags, zipper pouches and quilts. Finally, a usable design.

True Up delivers
Look at this awesome chart on True Up – they’ve compared all the digital fabric printing companies so we don’t have to! Thanks, True Up! You rule the school.
Bee Happy
I just checked in over at Wondermommy and filled in my stashbusters yardage and project totals for the week. Not very impressive – 2.5 yards used and 18 items made. 18 sounds like a lot, but camera straps just don’t use much yardage. I just need more sewing time! Someone sent me a convo today […]
Boys are difficult.
As soon as I posted a few camera straps, I had requests for boy-appropriate fabric. Don’t boys want to carry little tiny Wizard of Oz characters? I guess not. So this week, I brought my son, and we looked and looked for something cool. This is not really in the spirit of stashbusters, but I […]
