The pile on the left is the fabric for 7 new pleated wristlets, and the pile on the right will be turned into 3 new pleated hobo purses. I do hope to get some more fabric cut before the machine returns so that I'll have plenty of new goodies to introduce to my shop. I am going back into the hospital for another surgery at the end of the month, so things will slow down a bit again after that. If you have any requests that you'd like to see, please feel free to let me know!!
My name is Jessica, and I am a proud military wife. I began sewing in junior high school, but lost touch with my creativity during college. After graduation, I moved across the country to be with my husband. After working in Special Education for many years, I was diagnosed with Interstitial Cystitis and Diabetes Insipidus. Unable to continue working outside the home, I turned to sewing to keep myself occupied. This is my life....

Updates galore
First things first, my sewing machine has been broken for quite some time now. The good news is that it is being repaired as I type this. The bad news is that it's going to cost both arms to fix. Well, maybe not both arms. It's much, much less expensive to have it repaired than to buy a new one, and, with the amount of abuse I put that thing through, it's actually held up beautifully. I should have it back by the middle of next week, and if things go according to plan, I will have some new things to add to my shop soon. I've been using the time since I dropped it off to work on cutting fabric, and prepping everything, so that all I need to do is sew, sew, sew once I have it back. :) Here's a sneak peek of what I've got ready so far....
