Sew N Tell

Hello again lovelies,
I cant believe this is already my third blog post!! I would like to talk a little about my sewing adventure that I have gone thru this past year. I was obsessing having my own  sewing machine and start learning how to quilt and sew basic stuff. I posted on facebook that I really wanted  to get a sewing machine. One of my friends mentioned that her mom was getting rid of one. I was so excited to finally have a sewing machine. After a tune up and some new needles it was like new again. I finally had my very own sewing machine Yay! Little did I know that it was going to unleash a sewing beast in me. I learned how to use the sewing machine in August. Since then I have sewn 5 purses a multi pocket hobby bag, 1 car seat blanket, a full size quilt and started another quilt. Here are a few of my completed projects....









 
Some of my upcoming sewing projects:
Queen Size Quilt(Me)
Autism Quilt(Alice)
Hot pink and black purse(Monique)
Blues and purples purse(Amber)
Light colored flower zippered purse(Mom)
 
As some of you may not know my dad passed away this time last year of a heart attack. With everything that our family had to endure due to my dad passing I NEEDED some form of stress relief.  Sewing, quilting, crafting, cooking and organizing has kept me sane this past year.  I have a ton of pictures and ideas that I will continue to share with you all.
As a side note I defrosted the turkey for too many days. When I went to put it in the roasting pan it smelled funky. Needless to say I didn't end up cooking it. So whole turkey roasting will have to wait for another day. 
 Bye For Now
