What’s more adorable than little woodland critters scuttling around the forest? Think Bambi-esque; it doesn’t get much cuter. I always had a soft spot for Thumper and bunnies in general. In winter, with everything covered in a thick blanket of snow, animals look stunning against the bright white. I always love when I catch a […]
Fall weather is officially here. Enjoy a pumpkin spice latte, changing leaves, family get-togethers, and, of course, some chilly weather. It’s time to tuck away your summer tanks and store your shorts in lieu of sporting warm, fall layers. To get your fall wardrobe ready to go, we have collected these infinity scarf sewing patterns […]
Tea-lovers are arguably the best people around. They always know the hottest cafés in town. They’re always down to treat you to a scrumptious new drink, whether it be morning, noon, or night. Best of all, they’re lovers of the simple pleasures in life: the warmth of a freshly brewed teapot glowing into their palms […]
Hi! Stephanie from Swoodson Says again, back to share a fun pincushion tutorial. Winter often hits hard where I live in Iowa, so I figured if I can’t beat it, I might as well stitch it! If you’re looking for other cold weather projects, I have a fun no-sew cowl or maybe some upcycled heart […]

Today’s post is something festive and fun! This is the time of year where all I want to do is curl up on the couch and watch Christmas movies. With all of the holiday happenings that go on this time of year, it can be hard to think about what you’d like to start sewing […]
By now we’ve been seeing Christmas decor in just about every store since right around the time Halloween ended. I’ve been seeing some really cute holiday decorating ideas like throw pillows, dish towels, and Christmas bunting, but—maybe because they know we won’t have it displayed for very long—all of it has seemed to be very […]

It’s too cold for outdoor activities, and I don’t know about you, but when it gets dark this early I’m usually too tired to do anything too physical anyway. If you’re brainstorming some ideas for new winter sewing projects […]
I don’t know about you, but when it comes to decorating for the holiday season, I’m usually looking for something cheap and simple but still festive. Our house always plays host to both Thanksgiving AND Christmas dinners, so every year it seems like before I’ve even gotten the last of the cranberry sauce out of […]
