We Have a Winner!

Before I announce the winner of this past weekends Giveaway, I want to share another sneak peek at my contribution for the next issue of Fat Quarterly -- My Heartfelt Pillow Cover! This is a project combining felt, fabrics, and a reverse applique technique to create this one-of-a-kind, soft and cozy pillow cover, very similar to my Purple Stitch Pillow that was a favorite here and on flickr.


Fat Quarterly Issue 6 - Alternative Fabrics will be available for sale on the 27th July!!! Update :: VERY SOON!!! I'll announce it here just as soon as the release day is set.


We have a winner!

In the Studio -- Tutorials : :

So far this week, I have spent most of my sewing time creating two new very detailed sewing tutorials. It has certainly given me a new appreciation for how much work goes into these, but honestly I have enjoyed the process!

First, here's a little peek at my "Heart Felt Pillow Cover." This is a reverse applique project combining felt and fabric that I just finished for the next issue of Fat Quarterly. I'll be sure to share all the details as soon as I can!


And, here's my "Fabric Lover's Apron" I promised! Still a work in progress at the moment, but so very close to being finished! All that's left are the waist straps and typing up the instructions and I.AM.DONE! This photos makes me think a Loulouthi cafe curtain would be super cute!

If all goes well, my apron tutorial should be ready for action tomorrow! Get your fabrics ready and be sure to stop back!!!
