January Sewing Round Up

February 4, 2018 By: SewIstacomment

The new year has kicked off with a bang and lots of sewing.  For the first month of January I’ve already sewn 5 items and it’s been an awesome experience so far.January Sewing Round up

Week 1

In the first week of January I finished sewing up the last pillows for our new couches on the patio.  Read the blogpost about those here.  I still need to finish the covers for the seats, but I haven’t had time yet.

A crazy year, ending an era, new adventures, some sewing

December 30, 2017 By: SewIstacomment

In 2017 our lives were a bit crazy.  We thought we would never move from our house which we’ve spent 6 years renovating and setting up the way we liked it.  We needed a bit more space, but we had plans on getting that.  It would just take some time.  Then suddenly out of nowhere an advert for a house came across hubby’s facebook feed.  We looked at the pictures and loved what we saw but when viewing it, it just wasn’t love.  Then the what-ifs came knocking and we ended up viewing quite a few places. We found a place we really loved, it had enough room inside and out. AND I would have my own sewing room and wouldn’t need to share the study with hubby anymore.

The end of an era

We put in an offer and started packing.  It was crazy to see HOW MUCH STUFF we had!!  Mostly because we’ve always been planning on extending our current place, so we kept what we thought we could use again.  We had to rent a storage unit to get stuff out so that we could show our place better to potential buyers.  It was really sad to pack up and say goodbye to the house we’ve given so much love to and which had so many memories.  We didn’t end up selling and will be visiting it on occasion so its not all lost for now.

Philips Pasta Maker Review

I bought my Philips Pasta Maker during Takalot‘s big sale in July. Because I ordered it with items that had a delayed shipping time, it took a while to arrive. I was home sick on the morning when my Philips Pasta Maker was delivered. I really wasn’t feeling great but went to the kitchen to […]
