HELLO PEEP’S

I DECIDED I WANTED TO DO A TIP OF THE DAY HERE ON TOP STITCH.
THAT WILL PROBABLY KEEP THIS PLACE A LITTLE MORE ACTIVE

I AM NOT DOING IT BECAUSE I THINK I KNOW IT ALL WHEN IT COMES TO SEWING OR BECAUSE I HAVE SO MUCH ADVICE TO GIVE. I DECIDED TO DO IT BECAUSE THERE ARE SO MANY TIPS AND TRICKS THAT I HAVE LEARNED IN MY SHORT TIME SEWING. TIPS THAT I WISH SOMEBODY WOULD HAVE TOLD ME LOL

SOME OF THIS STUFF I LEARNED ON MY OWN FROM MAKING MISTAKES OR FROM JUST TRYING TO MAKE THINGS EASIER ON MYSELF

I’VE ALSO LEARNED FROM TAKING SEWING AND QUILTING CLASSES

FROM EXPERIENCED SEWERS

FROM PEEP’S ON LINE OR TUT’S I’VE COME ACCROSS

FROM THREAD TO FABRIC, FROM ROTARY CUTTERS TO QUILTING
I WILL BE TALKING ABOUT IT ALL!!

IF YOU HAVE QUESTIONS OR SUGGESTIONS OR YOU JUST WANT TO GIVE ME STUFF TO TALK ABOUT LOL PLEASE FEEL FREE TO EMAIL ME MIANTIFAZ@GMAIL.COM

SO TODAY’S TIP OF THE DAY IS: WHEN QUILTING, PRESS AS YOU GO. IT’S SO VERY IMPORTANT OR YOUR QUILT WON’T HAVE THAT NICE CLEAN LOOK IT’S SUPPOSED TO HAVE.

THAT TIP COMES FROM MAKING THIS BAG FOR THE SISTER.

SEWING 116 2 I/2 INCH SQUARES WAS HARD WORK!

THAT’S ALL I HAVE FOR TODAY. HAVE A GREAT WEEK

HAVEN’T BEEN AROUND SINCE 1902
SO I THOUGHT I’D COME MAKE A POST.
HAVEN’T BEEN SEWING MUCH LATELY BECAUSE OF THE DAMN WEATHER HERE IN CALIFORNIA
IT’S LIKE 300 OUTSIDE WHEN IT’S ALREADY SUPPOSED TO BE COLD
I DO HAVE SOME STUFF TO SHOW YOU, THAT I SHOULD HAVE POSTED A LONG TIME AGO LOL
BUT AS ALWAYS SOMETHING COMES UP

HERE ARE SOME COASTERS I MADE USING A MARY ENGELBREIT CHARM PACK
(I LOVE HER FABRIC BY THE WAY)

I MADE THIS 4 CORNER’S APRON THAT I AM NOT HAPPY WITH
I MADE A FEW MISTAKES I NEED TO SIT DOWN AND TRY IT AGAIN BECAUSE I REALLY LIKE THIS APRON.

I HAD SOME OF THAT FABRIC LEFT OVER SO I MADE SOME COASTERS
THESE LOOK SO CUTE IN PERSON.
EMAIL MIANTIFAZ@GMAIL.COM IF YOU WANT ONE (2 AVAILABLE)

MADE THESE FUN TRICK OR TREAT BAG’S FOR THE NIECES.
THEY HAD FUN PICKING OUT THE FABRIC

MADE THIS IN SEWING CLASS TONIGHT
USED PET SCREEN, MADE IT TO MATCH A TOTE I HAD MADE A FEW WEEKS BACK.
SCROLL DOWN TO SEE IT.
IT’S A LITTLE BIT BIGGER THAN A DOLLAR BILL

HERE IS THE BACK

FOR NOT HAVING SEWN MUCH LATELY I SURE HAD LOT’S OF STUFF TO POST LOL

HOPE YOU ENJOYED, COME BACK AND VISIT OFTEN!

HAVE SOME READING TO DO SO BUENOS NACHOS!!!!!

HAVEN’T BEEN HERE SINCE JULY. SO VERY SORRY IF YOU’VE COME BY ONLY TO FIND NOTHING HERE.

THERE ARE TIMES I WANT TO JUST DELETE THIS AND QUIT WASTING PEOPLE’S TIME. I KNOW THAT MARILLA AND HER MOM VISIT HERE AND ALWAYS WONDER WHEN I’M GOING TO UPDATE AND ASIDE FROM THEM I DON’T KNOW THAT ANYBODY ELSE COMES AROUND.

THEN THERE ARE THOSE DAYS WHEN I WANT TO KEEP IT AROUND TO SEE WHERE I’VE BEEN AND WHERE I’M GOING TO GO WITH THIS SEWING THING. THERE IS STILL SO MUCH THAT I NEED TO LEARN, SO I SORT OF WANTED TOPSTITCH FOR THAT. TO DOCUMENT ALL THAT I HAVE LEARNED.

SO UNTIL I DECIDE WHAT I WANT TO DO WITH IT, THERE ARE SOME THINGS I NEED TO TALK ABOUT TODAY LOL
MARILLA POINTED ME TO THIS SITE AND I THINK YOU ALL SHOULD GIVE IT A VISIT AND TAKE THE PLEDGE LIKE BOTH HER AND I DID.

SEPTEMBER IS NATIONAL SEWING MONTH SO THOSE OF YOU THAT SEW, I HOPE YOU ARE DOING TONS OF SEWING. I FINALLY PUT A STOP TO BEING LAZY WITH MY SEWING. I HAD NOT MADE ANYTHING ALL SUMMER SO I MADE 2 TOTES TODAY. ROFL YOU ALL PROBABLY THINK THAT’S ALL I KNOW HOW TO MAKE HA HA
MADE THIS ONE FOR ONE OF THE GIRL’S AT WORK

AND I MADE THIS ONE FOR ME!!
I LOVE THIS FABRIC (BUT THEN AGAIN I LOVE ALL FABRIC)

I’M GOING TO BE MAKING SOME MORE TOTES THIS MONTH.
2 FOR THE NIECES TO USE FOR TRICK OR TREATING. I FOUND THE CUTES FABRIC AND I WILL POST PICTURES AS SOON AS I AM DONE WITH THEM!!!

I THINK THAT MAY BE ALL I HAVE TODAY. I HOPE TO MAKE ANOTHER POST SOON!!!

THANKS FOR VISITING
