Fabric Obsessed

This is the place to look if you love sewing or maybe need some tips to get started.  There will be free patterns here as well!  I’ve been sewing for about 22 years and have made everything from simple bags to my wedding dress.  Sewing is my greatest passion!  I hope to add more and more tutorials to help fuel others passion too.  I believe sewing is useful to everyone, whether you just need to mend a button or want to make your own wardrobe.  If you really want to see something specific, just let me know in the comments.  I am always learning new techniques, so I hope you’ll join me on my fabric obsessed journey!

Mending Blue Jeans

Does your husband (or maybe you!) have trouble letting go of clothes?  My husband works in a metal building, as a welder – which is hot.  I frequently have to repair his pants, which are blue jeans.  He only has about 10 to 15 pairs, but if I suggest that maybe it’s time to let […] Read more…
