Happy Valentine's Day!










Lots of changes in my life recently. Not good or bad, just opportunities to become more efficient. I gave away lots of fabric to my daughter's art teacher, and my stash shelves were a mess. Fabric stuffed and thrown into a shelf by color. I am beginning to list my projects in order of quick completion and make a calendar with dates of show deadlines. Also I've begun to cut scraps. This is time comsuming but very good. I just don't want the mess.



My older daughter and I went to an antique market a few weeks ago. I got a tin of sewing items for $3, and Atlantic County Beach Patrol patches for $1 each (totally Boardwalk Empire). Great stuff. In the tin of sewing items was this hand crocheted pin cushion. I washed it in oxyclean (best cleaner ever) and made a new pincushion from muslin and fluff and now its the perfect vintage Valentine.
