So Sew! Day 31: Sewing recap

-
Welcome to day 31 of our 31 Days sewing series! This is the end...can you believe it?


New here? I'm glad you are visiting! You may want to follow this blog so you don't miss miss a post!

It is October 31, the last day of our sewing basics series! Can you believe it has been a whole month? I kind of can't believe I made it this far!

I've had a blast publishing this series throughout the month. There was a time when I never would have dreamed I had 31 days of anything to share, let alone sewing tutorials! It has been fun to pull from the resources of my mind and share interesting tidbits and a few of my secrets along the way.

It has been a stretching month, too. Posting every day of the week is not easy, and I have new respect for those that do it on a regular basis! From taking and editing pictures, to writing out the post and setting it to post automatically at the right day, there was always something in progress. It challenged me to really think ahead and plan, something I needed to learn as a blogger!

I'm excited to see where this series will go. I'm so thankful to those of you that have joined us this month for the first time, and hope the series has been a help! I would love for these posts to become a resource for you, that you can come back to again and again as you continue on your sewing journey. You can always find these posts under the tab at the top of the page. And feel free to share the ones that are a help to you personally!

And of course, I'd love to hear which posts were your favourite. Mine was probably the one where I taught you to turn things right side out. Based on your reactions, I'd say most of you liked the one about cutting $100 jeans. Leave me a comment and let me know!

I hope you'll continue to visit my little blog over the next few weeks. I will not be posting every day anymore, but I will be sharing some brand new shop items for Christmas, as well as some special promotions and Christmas fun. It is so nice to know you'll be along for the ride!

Some Friday Love: Recipe Binder Printable!

-

To celebrate this beautiful Friday evening (aren't Friday's just the best of days?) I have a FREE printable for you! I have to admit that I don't have a recipe binder, but a reader asked if I could make a printable to match the others for a recipe binder. If there is one thing I love, it is making printables that meet the needs of my readers! This blog would be pretty boring without you, so passing on some love in the way of printables is the least I can do! Anyway, back to the printable. How did I get on the sappy train? I really was not sure what all is included on a recipe binder page, but here is what I came up with: Then I thought that maybe there are some people out there that prefer to write teeny tiny and save space, and would like two recipes to a sheet. So I shrunk everything down and came up with this: Hopefully this will be a help! I could totally do a B&W version or size it for a half sized binder, if you prefer. After making these sheets, I began to see ...

"Frasier Island" Book Review and Giveaway!

Last month I spoke at a Christian Writer's Conference and met beautiful authors such as Susan Page Davis. I recently read her book, Frasier Island , and I am so excited to tell you about it! It is easy to tell when you've got your hands on a good book, and friends, this is a good book . It is full of mystery and intrigue, unexpected twists and plots, and just enough romance woven through to make it not over-the-top-lovey-dovey. Romance novels aren't really my thing, but a well written, informative, interesting mystery is! The story line takes Ensign Rachel Whitney to a new post on a remote scrap of rock in the Pacific called Frasier Island. Living there in isolation with two other soldiers, both Rachel and Lt. George Hudson are running from their past...and ultimately towards each other. While guarding a highly classified secret for the US Government, Rachel comes to realize the importance of letting God have His rightful place in her life. It is rare for a woman to be pu...

Quick Tip Tuesday: Facebook. Just Stop.

I have to say, I never, ever thought I'd be writing this post. But here we go. The goal of these quick tips is to simplify. Because really, isn't that the goal of every organizing project? We find a system that isn't working - something that aggravates our daily routine, and frankly, aggravates us! And we tear it apart and make an even bigger mess than before so we can find a better system that simplifies life. These quick projects do the same thing, with the added benefit of being, well, quick! These are quick fixes that take little or no time but have a big impact. Today's quick tip? Just stop with all the Facebook. Now hear me out. I am not getting rid of Facebook. It is one of the main ways I communicate with not only my immediate family in Canada, but my extended family and close friends that live all across the globe. And one day I realized...I'm spending a lot of time on Facebook NOT doing those things. Instead, I was scrolling through a lot of ...
