Your Stories Really Touched My Heart

Here's me in one of the few pics I have of something I sewed in the olden days.

I think Frank liked it! It was one of the popular a-line dresses of that time period.

Navy and green cotton fabric, simple, but seriously a great style of dress!

Reading all the stories in the Quilt Qwazy Queens Blog Hop really touched my heart.

Then there were the comments on my blog post about all the ways people learned to sew.

I was totally blown away by all of the stories...thank you everyone!

I read ALL of them and might have got a little teary-eyed a couple times!

I think we are all grateful for the mom, grandma, and/or friends who taught us to sew.

Those of you who have been self-taught deserve a star on your forehead!

I've taught myself a few sewing things, so I know how hard it can be sometimes.

Here's to many more years of learning new and exciting quilting things!

Halloween Is Almost Here And Dog Gone Cute Ends Today

I can't believe it's almost Halloween and that the Dog Gone Cute Blog Hop ends today.
Life goes on, of course, but as for me...
I'm having sewing withdrawals!

There's been no sewing for me, but hopefully my achy back will go away soon.
The head is better, though, which is good. Thanks for all your "be more careful" wishes!

In the meantime, here's me and one of my friends from long, long, long, long ago.
Hey, Frank, I hope you're still looking this good!

I'm sad to see the Dog Gone Cute blog hop end, but today's the last day...darn!
It's amazing how different one pattern can look in different designs and fabrics.
