Hump Day Ramblings... Fashion, Fabric and things of that nature...

• I enjoy looking at high end designer clothes. I'd never buy any of it, but I love looking at it and saving what I like on Pinterest lol

• I pin a LOT of things to pinterest. I take bits and pieces of it and kinda make it my own.

• For a long time I didn't know what MY style was. I'm finally figuring it out! YAY ME! LOL It's not even a STYLE just dress according to how I feel lol & wear what looks good on me lol

• I love fabric. I'm letting my girls pick more of my fabrics instead of buying them stuff. I still buy for them but I think they have more fun picking MY stuff lol

• I have a list of fabrics I need. Yes NEED.

• Seems like the magic number for fabric in my stash is 2 years. Once it's sat there two years it seems like that's what I pick from.

• I can remember where I bought fabric. Maybe not WHY I bought it but I can surely tell you where it came from,

• OHHH my mom & I take this annual lil trip every July. I actually forgot about it until JUST now lol. Need to start stashing my pennies lol.

• I love sewing. People think if they tell me I'm sitting on my "God given talent" That I will sew for them. Uhhh NERP. I would LOVE to teach a beginners class. If not, I can surely recommend you to a good class lol.

• I never fabric shop without a coupon, UNLESS I'm ordering online.

• Lately Hancock & Joanns has had a great selection.

• So glad Tony supports my fabric addiction lol.

• I have a pattern addiction. I LOVE patterns!!! This year my GOAL is to put my patterns in numerical order.

• I still organize all my patterns on Flickr. I think it was Mimi that had the original Idea. BEST THING EVER. I just scroll through my collections and grab the pattern number lol. LOVE it.

• I have a few favorite fabrics that I try to literally keep on hand in all colors. No, seriously. If I want something I grab it and keep it moving.

• I want what I wear to always for my age. I'm not 50 so I won't dress like I am. I'm not 21 so I won't dress like I am. I'm 34 lol. That is all.

• I just saw the most gorgeous fabric.  I seriously need to order it.

• I often plan what I want to sew around my shoes lol. Yep. I sure do.

• I ordered some patterns and I will be SO happy when they come in the mail.

• Erica B made a shirt a few years ago and I wanted one too. Had the fabric and pattern and it's STILL sitting there. Already cut out, just need to sew it lol

• Sometimes I don't notice a pattern until someone else had made it.

• I love how two people can make the same exact thing and it look totally different.

• Jaelyn is expressing REAL interest in learning to sew. I'm happy! I'm gonna teach her (and Kayla if she wants) this summer.

• I took out my spring clothes and I'm so happy about the quality of the garments I'm making. It TRULY makes me happy to see how I've improved over the years!!! YAY! LOL

• I love the fashion bombshell blog. I always look at it at the end of the day so I can read all the comments lol

Ahhh ok, that's all I got lol

Toodles!

I wish I had learned how to sew before my mom died I have 3 of her sewing machines that just collects dust. I am glad they want to learn

From the first time I saw your sewing on PR I've thought you had great sense of your own style.. and it's great that your girls want to learn to sew.. There'll be no stopping them soon..

* The way you feel about sewing, I feel about knitting (and now crochet) but I just don't seem to have the time to do both the way I want to.

* I used to apologize for my yarn addiction, now I don't.

* I love the way we can express God's creativeness in our own unique ways.

I want to learn to sew, so if you start teaching, please let me know or I will take you up on the recommendation of a class.

Thanks!

Love your list. One of these days when time permits I'm going to try my hand at clothing. Love the things you, Erica and Sheila make.

Happy sewing!!!
