Patterns, Techniques, Articles, Blogs, and other resources to learn how to sew
While I’m no hoarder and I’m pretty good at giving a good clean-out to most rooms of my house, my sewing room is my Kryptonite. But even your sewing space needs a good tidying up now and then. Melisa from Blank Slate Patterns and Melly Sews tells how she used the Marie Kondo method to tidy up her own sewing space, and gives some advice for us to do the same.

Freebie: Printable Christmas Eve magic pillowcase poem
With all the excitement and expectation of Santa’s visit, it can be hard for kids to go to sleep on Christmas Eve. Melissa from Polka Dot Chair created special pillowcases for her nephews, to be used only on Christmas Eve. When she gave them to them, she included a little poem explaining that they’re magic pillowcases to help them have sweet dreams. She’s sharing a free printable of the poem on her blog, plus she links to a tutorial she’s written for making a pillowcase, so you can start the tradition with your own kids.
