I have two grand daughters and I can see so many possibilities with this pattern. Add an apron, ruffle the hemline, & my daughter loves when I put appliques on their clothes, usually cats. I have 2 bins full of yo yo's of different sizes…

I'm sewing two bucket bags and two tote bags ordered by a friend for Christmas gifts. My bucket bag is one of my biggest sellers at craft fairs. They are reversible and machine washable. They are a quick & easy project.

- About Me:
- I'm all about crafting. I spend all my free time making things. My favorite craft is sewing, I'm close to disabling my second sewing machine. I am disabled due to herniated discs in my back and fibromyalgia. If I couldn't craft I'd go crazy!!!! I love to quilt, make baby items and well just about anything useful. Oddly people just love my bucket bag. It's a medium size tote bag that is big enough to hold all your stuff but not so big that it kills your shoulder.

Lynne Demeter said… - Thanks for commenting on my page. I didn't realize how dimensional it was till I actually had it all sewn together and put it up on the wall. I am mostly a very traditional quilter and it's nice to jump outside the box for a change!

This video demonstrates how to fix / adjust / repair the timing of the hook on a sewing machine. If the thread from your needle isn't getting caught by the hook that rotates around, this video explains what to adjust to fix that. Requires some very basic tools and takes 15-30 minutes - maybe less.
