Hello Readers. I have had this corduroy fabric sitting in my stash for a few years. I finally decided what to do with it. I could make a vest.

Simple Appliqued Sweatshirt
Hello Readers. Today is election day. I hope you can get out and vote if you are in the U.S. I wanted to make a shirt for the day that went with the voting theme. (I really love a shirt with a theme.) I wanted spell out the word vote but this idea would work for any word. (Thankful for Thanksgiving, Love for Valentine's Day, Luck for St. Patrick's Day...) I don't have a fancy embroidery sewing machine so let me show you how I did this.

Weird White Sweater to Sweater Vest
Hello Readers. I honestly have no idea where I got this cropped sweater. Maybe from my daughter. It was soft and fuzzy but the fit was wild. I decided it would make a fun sweater vest. Let me show you how I did it.

A Golden Wrap Skirt
Hello Readers. I have a small stash of fabric that my mother-in-law gave me and I am always trying to use it instead of buying new fabric. (I am really cheap like that.) I really liked this golden fabric. It was a weird shape and there wasn't very much of it. What could I make?
