I think I'll start out my new blog with a sewing week summary. I think I will have a buying summary on Saturday. Sunday will be the sewing summary (because I do most of my sewing on Saturday) and on Monday I will post a summary of anything new and noteworthy I have seen around, patterns, fabric, blogs, etc. Of course I will do other posts in between, but I like setting up a schedule that I will never follow :)
So here's my first-ever Buying-Summary, please don't let my husband read this :):
First off my husband did some buying on ebay earlier this week and this reminded me I haven't looked on ebay in quite awhile. So on Monday off I went and I found some interesting things. I ordered 3 half-yards of fabric and two patterns from sewnice1957. I think I finished up my auctions on Tuesday and paid on Tuesday or Wednesday and what was waiting for me in my mail on Friday - but my order and the fabrics are lovely and the patterns are great too (like I need more patterns). Check out what I bid on below and I will definitely be going back to sewnice1957's shop in the future!
Wednesday also found me on the McCall's/Butterick/Vogue website taking advantage of the big sale. I am a club BMV member so that meant additional savings. I ordered 8 patterns (again, like I need more), but they shipped on Friday. I expect them Monday so I'll post next week what I received.
Friday found me at Walmart, I wanted some fabric for a messenger bag I wanted to make this weekend and I needed some fusible fleece to finish a project. So I came out of there with several pieces of fabric, some medium-weight interfacing, some DecorBond interfacing, a piece of canvas and some velcro. Lots of projects planned for the future. My WalMart ladies are so nice that I love shopping in the fabric department and dread the day we lose ours (though I hear it's inevitable). The Pink and black design I'm making the messenger bag with. The pink polka dot is actually on a bright green and it's for baby items. The bottom piece is the canvas fabric for use in bags.
So that's my week, now it's time to sew.
