I picked this machine and table up at an estate sale this morning! I’ve never heard of a Bob McDougal machine. Does anyone know anything about them?

Another McCall’s M8318 dress finished! This one is made from the IKEA SOMMARVICKER duvet cover.

Today I’m taking a small work road trip and brought a new project to keep me busy in the car. #embroidery #embroideryart #handembroidery #handstitched #modernembroidery https://www.instagram.com/p/CqF6u6zuoiP/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

I’m guessing this is going to be one of the last weekends I’ll get to enjoy a fire for a while. This morning will consist of coffee, puppy cuddles, stitching, and audiobook, and the fire place.

I went to love my sewing chair this morning and thought it was kinda heavy. I opened it and realized there are things in there that I need to sort and put away. #sewingroom #sewingroomorganization #sewingroominspiration #sewingroomideas (at Houston, Texas) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cp5CBYgOL5C/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Here I was trying to get a good picture of my outfit this morning but got interrupted by puppies. The skirt was made in 2021 with a @pbsfabrics print. #circleskirt #circleskirts #diyskirt #homemadefashion #handmadefashion #sewingfashion #sewingskirts #fashionskirts #homesewn #handsewnfashion #homemadeskirt #homemadeclothing #homemadecircleskirt #diycircleskirt #memade (at Houston, Texas) https://www.instagram.com/p/ComoFSKOrft/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Happy Monday! This weekend I worked on making a project bag for work. I needed something that could carry 11x17 paper, a level, pencils, magnets, tape, and various other things. While I probably could have bought something it may not have had the same setup I wanted. I know it’s a bit wonky but it was an old blue bag, a quick sew, and I’m thinking this is just a first draft. Side note: If you’re wondering why I used a blue IKEA bag it’s because I work at IKEA.

One of the things I asked for for Christmas was a flower press. Last week I was given a beautiful bouquet as a going away present at work. Now I get to put the flower press to use! (I almost forgot I had it) I can’t wait to see how they turn out! Have you ever had a flower press?

First sewing pattern of the year on the cutting table. I’m going to attempt to make the short version of this. For my first attempt at it I’ll be using this old IKEA fabric. That way if it works out ok then it’s cute and yay! But I’d it doesn’t work it’s not too much of a loss since I have a whole bolt of this fabric. Wish me luck! #simplicitypatterns #sewing #sewist #sewistofig #sewingproject #sewistofinstagram #sewistsgonnasew #sew #houstonsewist (at Houston, Texas) https://www.instagram.com/p/CnHmGbLOSfO/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

This year’s goal is to get my spray inks sorted. I have an idea in mind but it’s going to take awhile. In the meantime enjoy this overflowing RASKOG cart of inks. #craftroom #craftroomtour #craftroomorganization #craftroominspiration #bestcraftrooms #craftroomdecor #wherewomencreate #artroom #artstudio #artroominspiration #artroomdecor #artroomideas (at Houston, Texas) https://www.instagram.com/p/CnE_gZAupL_/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
