lol. I made something for this and forgot to post it😆
fun pockets are a must!!
I’ve used QC in the past but my QC stash is quite limited!
I’m definitely going to try cutting it on the bias next time! Hadn’t thought of that. Thanks!
What fabrics are we using for pockets in jeans these days?

JESS you absolutely knocked these out of the park!!!
these are so cute!!!!
I haven’t tried orange oil. Same here- nothing toxic. Food grade DE works when things are dry but once it’s wet it’s useless
all credit to a random lady in a local garden group for the idea! It’s a photo storage box. Michael’s has them I think!
fire ants are the worst!!!!!
disturbing them every day until they move has been the only thing that kinda works for me but our beds are raised/in-ground combo. Our compost bin is another story lol… I hope can get rid of them🐜
The Department of Ed has a form to snitch on DEI policies in schools.
I’d be a shame if we broke it with thousands of responses… enddei.ed.gov
Outdoor metal table covered with two balls of yarn, a half knit striped sock, seed packets, two upside down bins, a cup of coffee, a glass of water, and a garden planning notebook.
Sad and wilted young tomato plants under a grow light with immense cold damage.
Could not be more excited to get plants in the ground this year. Seed starting was a big bust for us this year. A late second freeze and we forgot to bring the plants into the house. Oops. Off to buy some tomatoes & get my hands in the soil👩🏼🌾🥳
Oh no! I was gifted a vintage machine that needed a motor replacement a few year ago.. I ordered from SewingMachineDepot on eBay and my partner installed it. Maybe you will be able to replace it?
godspeed🫡🫡
Pretty big news especially in light of ~current events~: Yesterday the FDA approved a new non-hormonal IUD for the first time in more than 40 years. www.prnewswire.com/news-release...
A poster for the economic blackout on February 28. It is a big red Jack rabbit on an aqua blue back ground. It says economic blackout in hand done black type. There are two black speech bubbles. One says “don’t buy stuff Friday February 28th. The other says we have power. Below it says No Amazon, Walmart, target, gas food, gas. Below that it says OK small business, use cash. Designed by Martha Rich.
I made this the other night while procrastinating, mainly because I thought all the posts about the blackout were boring. It feels like there is momentum bringing people together!
Celebrating H’s birthday with his “Chocolate with an entire jar of Luxardo cherries & cream cheese frosting” cake. Edible flowers from our garden. I love making birthday cakes!
He made his shirt (#SageTee) a couple years ago.
Great idea!

Apparently I just have the pdf of the manual. I messaged it to you. Feel free to reach out! I can take pics of mine & where I oil it.
I have this one too. Still haven’t quite figured out the right tension for it. It’s all metal- built to last & be used. If it’s been sitting it probably will need to be oiled every place metal touches metal & moves. I have the service manual if you need it :)
Yellow ☺️
I got one of those charts a few years ago. It’s been a great resource! Wawak has a conversion of the numbers. Large spools and small spools have different numbers for the same color
Wow this looks so good!!!! I can’t believe it’s your first time.. it looks so professional! Love all the color work tips in the comments too!

Bunched up black fabric with ties being sewn into a skirt with a Bernina sewing machine sitting on a wood table. There is a window in the background with colorful glass fiddle bottles, a floor lamp, and a Tony Rice “Native American” vinyl record sleeve leaning against a projector.
Working on my first #PeppermintWrapSkirt and listening to one of the latest records in our collection. Tony Rice is always a favorite.
