I have been filled with the spirit of Sewing this month and I have made dog sweaters today :)
ReplyDeleteI just finished up my very first quilt, so I celebrated by making a few "simple" things - curtains for my sister & a pillow for my nephew!
ReplyDeleteYes! I have been filled with the spirit of the Sewing Month! I'm supposed to be taking it easy at home recovering from our wedding last week, but instead I cleaned up my sewing room (which was migrated to the basement while I was getting ready for the wedding and making projects), and started making a baby quilt for a coworker's little girl =D It feels so good to be sewing at a leisurely pace again after all the crammed sewing I did in the last little while for the wedding! Thanks for the giveaway, really love the fabrics!!
ReplyDeleteEvery month is sewing month in my house! Well when I can fit it in around 2 kids. I've been sewing some kids clothes lately but I would love to win this nature walk giveaway as I'm going to use your nature walk collection to create the soft furnishings and accessories for the nursery.
ReplyDeleteSlipcovered an armchair. Finally. It's been waiting for literally years!
ReplyDeleteNo wonder I have been itching to sew! I started to piece together a quilt yesterday night for my daughter. I can't wait for the cooler weather.. that's when I really get into it. Nothing like hand sewing a blanket on a cold night.
ReplyDeleteI have just begun my sewing adventures. :) I have made two blankets this month. Simple ones just to practice straight lines. My sewing machine (singer 403a) was given to me by my granny and I am thankful for the chance to learn something new.

I am inspired to sew, have a few new bundles of fabric expected to arrive in the mail this week (including a bundle of Miscellany destined to become a throw for my living room couch)! Would love to win a pile of your scraps - there is no telling the goodness that could come out of that!
ReplyDeleteIt is always sewing time around here! I have been making potholders, mug rugs, baby blankets.. you name it, I've probably made it!!
ReplyDeleteI haven't been able to touch my sewing machine in a while... but I've definitely got the sewing itch!
ReplyDeleteYes, I have been filled with the spirit of Sewing Month and just finished a table runner.
ReplyDeleteLove your floor pouf and the Nature Walk fabrics. They'd be perfect for my daughter and son-in-law's new home (placemats, coasters, etc)
Thanks for the generous giveaway.

ReplyDeleteI've been sewing some linen men pants. wildkitten/dot/handcrafts/at/gmail/dot/com
ReplyDeleteMy sewing projects for the month and the theme seriously linked up. My partner of 5 years and I are marrying tomorrow, and I made our dresses! For the love of it, indeed!
ReplyDeleteOh yes Sept for me is looking super busy! I've been working on hexies right now. . but I hope to cute up some Forest Friends this weekend for a baby quilt!
ReplyDeleteI have 3 different quilt projects going on this month for sure. One of them I just finished (yay!), one of them has the pieces cut and is about to be pieced, and for the third I will buy the fabric tomorrow so I can get started right away (it's a gift). So yeah, I've got the bug this month!
ReplyDeletei love your floor pouf! i have made a quilt and a quilt top to donate, and have started cutting for a bag. i need to finish at least one more quilt though! these would be perfect for a fall quilt!
ReplyDeleteI have been knitting this month. Wrist warmers to my three daughters.
ReplyDeleteI have! I've started my first quilt with some fat quarters of Nature Walk and Cut Out & Keep I picked up over the summer, and I'm also working on a knitting bag for some of my larger projects.
ReplyDeleteI am in the spirit for sure! I have made my bocks for all my swaps plus the duplicate blocks of each in mine and my mothers chosen colors. I have also done some hand embroidery and am planning to start another quilt this weekend.
ReplyDeleteI'm working on a laptop sleeve for my husband. Sshhh! It's an anniversary present!
ReplyDeleteI have been filled with the spirit of sewing month and am eagerly awaiting the arrival of the new fabric I ordered as already have a pattern! I've also been cross stitching some things ready for Christmas!
ReplyDeleteI did an origami pinwheel tutorial for my LQS; and for it whipped up two new 'patterns'/'ways' to use the block.
ReplyDeleteIt's always national sewing month around here - so far this month I've made one quilt start to finish, bound three, quilted and bound two more, and made a flimsy for 100 Quilts For Kids; plus I just took a bridesmaid's dress apart at the waist to take it up three inches!
ReplyDeleteI have, although my project isn't complete yet. I'm in the process of making a blind for my front door.
ReplyDeleteOf course! So many project! A tea towel for a friend, a stop for the door, a pijama...
ReplyDeleteI am working on baby blankets for my coming soon 1st grandson (after 5 girls!) Have lots of projects lined up, will be sewing every chance I get.

National Sewing Month - I'm making a charity quilt though have a back brace so am doing so in small increments. In between, I'm making hexies for my seven year project of a Grandmother's Flower Garden quilt. Thanks for the chance to win some of your great fabric. alternate email mlwright29(at)hotmail(dot)com
ReplyDeleteWow I love the pouf, thanks for the link, I have some fabrics that would be great for that. I've just finished a quilt that has been on the go for 6 yrs! So I'm feeling quite pleased with myself. thanks for the great giveaway
ReplyDeleteI've joined 3 Quilt Alongs, an am working on those.
ReplyDeleteUgh! It's sewing month and I have lost my motivation, so no sewing yet for me. :-/ It doesn't help that we have been crazy busy lately!
ReplyDeleteI've actually started quilting classes this month and hopefully will be off and running once all the classes are done. So far, so good. Last week we did a flying geese block that had 8 in one block with two in each direction. I was extremely happy since I'd never made those in my life and every single one of mine had perfect points. :)
ReplyDeleteNext week I need to work on baby stuff too. Our 2nd grandchild was born and he needs some Grandma goodies. Of course his big sister needs to have some too so I have things to do for sure.
During September I have started sewing a lone star pillow, but keep unpicking as my diamond seams are not lining up! I also have a quilt front with echino fabrics finished for my brother - now to find the perfect backing fabric. Thanks for the chance to win some Nature Walk fabrics.
ReplyDeleteOh yes indeedy! I currently have 3 quilts on the go, at various stages of construction :) - would love to win this gorgeous scrap pack!
ReplyDeletethis september was the perfect season to cut and sew a jean waistcoat for me. Thanks for the chance!
ReplyDeleteIt is always sewing month in my house.I have just finished a baby quilt/playmat and another cut ready to sew. LOVE it!

I can't believe September is already 1/3 of the way through & I haven't sewn anything (busy!)
ReplyDeleteThis weekend I'm going to finish a cotton lawn nightgown my grandmother requested. She can't find in the stores that is exactly how she likes (:
The Floor Poof is wonderful!
ReplyDeleteI've been inspired by many things and haven't had much of a chance to sew in the last few days. I am going to be making a rather large bag tomorrow for a friend for her birthday! She's a knitter, so a nice big bag will be a welcome. Also making a smaller zipper bag to fill with whatever.
I'm sewing patchwork pillows for our living room, but today I took a break and decided to cover a notebook w/fabric and patches.
ReplyDeleteWhat a nice fabrics. My newest project is to sew a wigwam for my 2 boys.
ReplyDeleteafter not doing much in August I am back in the swing of things, made myself a shirt this week and the current WIP are a pile of owl brooches
ReplyDeleteI'm making all of my Christmas presents this year- this fabric would look so great in my mom's table runner! Table runners...placemats...baby quilts... and those wonderful burp cloths (Thanks for the pattern- they're great!) I'm a busy momma!
ReplyDeleteLove Cloud 9!!!

I just finished a mini art quilt for a swap. I have another to make this week, then I'd like to start some clothes.
ReplyDeleteI pieced a quilt I started last winter and I'm determined to finish it this week! Plus I have another quilt top done waiting for quilting AND a couple quilts that i haven't even started that need to be finished by Christmas. I have a busy few months in my future.
ReplyDeleteI made a mug rug and started a new quilt.
ReplyDeleteI wish that I could say that I've been sewing more, but being preggers has really zapped all my energy! We're beyond thrilled though, so a little delayed sewing is just fine :) Thanks for the giveaway!

I've been doing very little sewing so far this month. :( Must. Fix. That!
ReplyDeleteI've been working on baby quilts and am planning some cushions and a new bag, plus some clothes for my daughter :)
ReplyDeleteThanks for the incredible giveaways!
I've made a baby gift quilt, worked on some bags and accessories for birthday gifts, and started on a twin quilt for my little guy. THANKS for the chance at those fabrics!

I've been making lots of pillows. Love the fabric. I can see lots of possibilities. :)
ReplyDeleteI have been bit by the fabric bug this month! I usually keep my sewing very basic (mostly baby blankets, burp clothes, etc.) but last week i decided my little girl needed some clothes! so, i made a cute little pinafore (wish i could figure out how to post a picture) with the free as a bird fabric. it turned out amazing! the fabric is gorgeous and i have gotten so many compliments on it!
ReplyDeleteI just made a nursing cover for myself and my new niece too. I am working on making my son some new pillows for his crib now that he is old enough to have little pillows and stuffed friends. I would use the fabric for his new pillows...anyone know of a pillow form made of organic cotton or wool?
ReplyDeleteI've been filled with the spirit, but I'm still waiting for my littlest one to start school! She doesn't go back until 19th, so I have a stack of fabric ready and waiting for that day!
ReplyDeleteI wish I had the time to do all the sewing I want this September! This month I've finished my second Colette Violet blouse, but I want to start on some birthday presents for a cousin (who's birthday is right before Halloween). It's also never too early for holiday sewing! I'm already planning presents and decorations...now when will I have all the free time to do it?
ReplyDeleteI've been filled with the spirit of sewing today and I am still working on my mens shirting quilt. I got some lovely samples from my guilds scrap table..124 6" squares to be exact...add a floral and voila...almost done with the top.
