Colleen Scott commented on the blog post 'My Soul is Fed by Needle & Thread'
Gloria, Glad to hear you are 'on the road again'. Being constructive, be it sewing, gardening, beading, quilting, fills a need in our souls. I, like you find it in sewing. I used it also when my father passed on. It somehow comforts us to…

Re: What are you working on?
I am working on quilted checkbook covers. I had bought a pattern for them but it had binding on it. I hate doing binding on small things. So I made my own pattern. It is so easy I can put one together in 20 minutes after completing the quilting. Now I am whizzing right through them. They are going to be on my site where I sell things I make to raise money for my missionary friends in Senegal. ColleenSee More

Colleen Scott commented on the blog post 'AAAAAGGHHHHH.... I'm a SEWING HOARDER !!!!!!!!!!'
I did it again. I gave in to a frenzy of buying. But I think I came out on top this time. I went to a tent sale of old patterns, and books and such. Heard a little voice of reason in my head saying -'Now you know you don't have much money…
I DID IT AGAIN
I went and added to my stash of patterns and books. I already have patterns I probably will never ever use. But when I saw that this quilting place was having a tent sale to get rid of outdated patterns, I just couldn't help myself. The books were $1, the videos were $1 and the patterns were 25 cents.I got $165 worth of patterns for $4, $158 worth of books for $11 and two $20 videos for $1 each. Not bad, says I.The videos are on Silk Ribbon Embroidery and Embellishment by Judith Baker Montano.…See More

OMG! There are actually women out there that have the same disease. Is there actually a cure? I doubt it but maybe we can help each other cope with our wonderful disorder. I know every time I see fabrics that go together, I think now that would look…

Birdie said… - Thanks for the great tips Colleen! I'd never heard of steam & seam. I'll have to hunt it down and try it. I did end up using pinking shears AFTER I cut out one body panel and saw hoe it frayed terribly. For that one panel that I'd cut, I went around it with a zig zag stitch in hope that it would stop some of the fraying. See, this is why crafting keeps the brain young...always a challenge!
