Clear Front Project Bags – Sewing Tutorial

by

Anyone who crafts or sews has multiple projects in process at any time.  Audrey Pettit has a tutorial on the Therm O Web blog showing how you can make these clear front project bags that will help you keep up with your in-process projects.  The zipper pocket keeps everything together, while the clear vinyl front lets you see what’s inside. Smart!

Monday Musings: My Fabric Stash is Judging Me (A Love-Hate Relationship)

I have a problem. Well, several problems, but today we’re talking about the 37 yards of fabric currently taking up residence in my closet. Some of it’s been there so long it could legally vote. That beautiful linen? Bought for a specific project in 2018. The designer wool? “Too nice to cut.” The rainbow of quilting cotton? Well, it was on sale.

Every time I open that closet, I swear the fabric whispers, “Remember when you were going to make that dress?” The guilt is real. But so is the joy of petting my hoard like a fabric dragon sitting on her treasure.

Last week I tried the KonMari method. I got as far as “does this spark joy?” before buying three more yards of floral voile. Some habits die hard.
