ALYOF October Goal

-

Hi Everyone!
Well once again I feel like the year is zipping by
and leaving me behind in a big way!

I missed September's goal making altogether
because I simply forgot with everything going on at home.
Zoey's was here for two weeks
and her Daddy picked her up on Monday.
I miss her terribly!

I do have a lovely giveaway going on for
ThimblePad!
(Click ThimblePad above to enter)
I would love for all of you to enter!

Colonial Needle sent the packages for the giveaway -
I'll be picking (3) winners from the blog giveaway and
(2) winners from the Instagram giveaway @intheboondocks,
(5) chances for you to win!

October will be a month to get back to sewing!
(I know that was last month and I did do some).

My goal for October is to make this pouch!
I have other projects and giveaways
to do throughout the month so please check back!


Create and be unique!
Lisa

Everyone else come by
and have a look around
at all the sewing goals we are setting at

April Showers Blog Hop

Thanks you Madame Samm Sew We Quilt! and Erin Sew At Home Mummy for being the best cheerleaders in the world. Madame Samm I love how you keep thinking up great hops! You keep us challenged, that is for sure! I love "Stitching On Prints" it is so fun! I tried out DMC Cotton Perle, Aurifil, and a pack of cheap stuff with great colors. The Cotton Perle is inexpensive and works pretty well. The cheap stuff is awful it is hard to pull through the fabric and I will not buy again. The Aurifil is just right. I hope to get more and start "Stitching On Print" a series. Where we work together once a week and learn stitches. I love the effect in the mug rug. April Showers Blog Hop Day 1! These are the Blogger for April 8, 2013. The April Showers Blog Hop is from April 8 - 18, 2013. Please stop by and give a comment for all their hard work. You can get the full schedule at Erin's blog Sew At Home Mummy Erin@Sew at Home Mummy Patty@A Stitch In Time Jenny@Squawk

Aurifil Thread Giveaway - Black and White

Let's talk thread! As Quilters and Sewers - thread binds everything we create together. Some will say the most important item is fabric, spend the extra on fabric, I say buy the best thread! Cheap cotton threads breaks and rots after a few years. Have a problem with your thread breaking try a spool of Aurifil 50 wt. thread! It may just cure it! Just a side note - if you have old thread that was given to you, use it as a decoration don't use it in your machine. Never buy old thread for sewing, it will just cause you a lot of frustration. When I needed a bag to hold my smaller rulers, I chose Aurifil 50 wt thread to zig zag the bag because it is strong and durable! I use white to sew almost everything light colored and that includes topstitching. I went back months searching my most used color and go figure it is Aurifil 50 wt. thread #2021, Natural White! It only goes to say that my other most used color of Aurifil 50 wt. thread is #2692, Black! Sometimes topstitching
