Good morning everyone! Im Kathleen & new here but not a new sewer. Would like to learn how to do quilting. Have made clothes since I was 12. Took a very long break for 20 years but I'm retired now & back into sewing again.

I don’t know about you guys but to me, summer seems to be flying by. I have found myself so busy that I have not had much free time to sew and the projects are starting to stack up, LITERALLY all over my cutting table. It’s enough to have good intentions RIGHT???? Please tell me I’m right…🤣 Hopefully you all have something to show off this week. What has kept you busy? Any new projects, progress on existing projects, something finished or even some Good Intentions to share? We’d love to celebrate and encourage you so drop a comment (and photo if you have one) so we can cheer you on. I will share that I have a new YouTube Video just published and it is ALL about Sewing Machine Needles. I cover how to decipher the numbers and color codes as well as when to change your needle, which needle to use for specific projects and how to prevent expensive machine repairs caused by using old or damaged needles. In the video I have 2 handy printable resources that I will post below for you all to have here. Ok, now it’s your turn to share! Happy Saturday Sewing Friends!

I am so proud of myself!!! First dress that actually fit properly!!!! I even went out in public in it lol got a couple more things to do but I am loving it!!
