Not only do I sew, I crochet and needlepoint as well. I purchase my large thread cones from FABRICTOPIA
Day 4: LOVE CUTS
Here are just a few scissors and cutting tools I use when creating garments and crafts. Yes I have band aids on standby because accidents do happen ☝
Day 5: 🔥HOT HOT HOT🔥
The top is my current iron station. The bottom is ironing equipment on my wish list
Day 6: BUTTON DOWN
I’m shame. I have no buttons. Buttons holes have been a fear of mine but I promised myself I will make a garment with bottoms for 2016.
Day 7: MEASURE TWICE
I have lots of measuring boards, rulers, tapes, etc. But my newest tool is the measuring gauge. FASHION BEHIND THE SEAMS introduced me this tool and I love it.
Day 8: PIN IT
I think we all have the yellow quilters pins…lol On my next notion buy, I will look for the glass head pins. Some to more experienced seamstress I follow have mention them several times.
Day 9: MY MACHINES
All of my creating happens on the top two machines. The Dream Machine at the bottom is on my wish list. From the first time I saw it, it was love at first sight….
Day 10: BRIGHT LIGHT
My current lighting. The right pic was a gift to enhance my photography, I’m rearranging my space to add more light for my sewing corner.
Day 11: PATTERN FAVE
I have two because when I completed the garment, it looked nothing like the pattern and I followed the directions word for word…lol

Not a huge collection but valuable to my craft.
Day 13: CHALK IT UP
This was suggested to my by the sales associate in @hancockfabrics. I love it

My sewing machine feet and my favorite sewing socks
This week week challenge has been fun. Looking through my stash to see what I can find and also viewing the post of others who participated on Instagram. I even gained a few more social media friends through this challenge. THANKS SEWCIAL PLACE….IT WAS FUN.
