taking care of business


always better with cupcake and coffee.  so, our pal beth is nowhere to be found, time for a redo of nikki's book giveaway! i actually started down a rabbithole of clicking on everyone's names to see who might reeeeeaaaalllly want it.  that was dumb.  a lotta people want it.  random number generator, take it away...


lucky number thirteen, liza jane, who said  i love that draped tee dress pattern. i also peeped at her purse patterns. i've always wanted to make a frame purse.  holler at me mama and let's get you making purses!  

i've been on a book kick lately-- read about you sew, girl! here, and patternmaking here.  and have a cupcake while you're at it.

  2. I love the sewing books I have and have enjoyed reading all the reviews that are out in blogland. Collette, Amy Butler Style Stitches, and a pattern making book amongst the few I have. I never seem to do more then sit down and read them. I have Sew Knits with Confidence on it's way to me and maybe I'll actually make a pattern from a book I have bought?! :) That cupcake looks delicious! I need one now!
