This week on YouTube!

One of the coolest bags I've ever made, the Retro Sling Backpack from Kandou Patterns is a must make!

I feel so lucky that I was able to unbox and play with the latest Bella Box from Kimberbell! These boxes sold out so fast, so make sure to keep an eye out for the next one!

The New Stuff:

More...

Have you seen this?? Double sided vinyl?! I'm so excited to play with the vinyl and some beautiful fall festive zippers from Mojo Sews.

I do love a mystery box, and these goodies from Indo Love Kreations did not disappoint! Packed full of zipper tape and webbing, these fun holiday pulls were also included (and available on their website). 

Hapa Fabrics has been a favorite of mine for years, and when I got to try out there vinyl, I knew i was hooked. Make sure to keep an eye out for these awesome additions!

Happy Halfway To Halloween! In honor of the beginn Happy Halfway To Halloween! In honor of the beginning of the Halloween season (don’t argue with me about this) I made myself a spoooooky themed quilt block using some of my favorite fabric!

Curved blocks seem hard, but once you try this method you’ll have them down in no time. 

Finished block size is 8.5“ x 8.5“ (including the final seam allowance)

Templates are from the Magic Maker QUILT set (not the appliqué), size LARGE in Shop OklaRoots. The ones I’m using are for the Ears portion, but you could use the larger face curved blocks in the set to make an even bigger block. 

Material is quilt cotton from the Nightshade line from @tulapink .

The Brush Pouch from @missfrecklesdesign is just s The Brush Pouch from @missfrecklesdesign is just so dang refreshing! This is a quick make that is great for quilt cotton and can be used in a number of ways. I’ve seen lots of you excited to use this for knitting and crochet needles! My kids would put their stationary items in it. And I would use this for all my skinny tools that are constantly rolling around my table 🥴. Oh, you can also use it for makeup and paint brushes!

Let me know if you whip one up! It’s a really fun sew-jo booster.

13 minutes of me yapping about my 🍑 . Here’s how 13 minutes of me yapping about my 🍑 . 

Here’s how my first colonoscopy prep went down! If it’s time for you get this checkup, make sure to make that appointment. It’s not a fun 24 hours but can help prevent a whole lot of other problems. 

Colon cancer runs in my family and I’ve seen the impacts it can cause if not caught early. 45 is the recommended age for your first scan, but if you have symptoms and/or a family history, you may want to get this done sooner. I’m 41 and so glad I did this now. My Dr. said he had his first at 37, so there is no shame in staying on top of this sooner than later. 

Take care of your booties!
