Janome S7 Sewing Machine Review
A couple of months ago, Janome contacted me to see if I would be interested in trying out their newest sewing machine, the Skyline S7. Of course I said yes, and they sent it right over.

The machine I normally sew on is a Juki
Halloween 2015: A League of Their Own
So many fun movie quotes ran through my mind as I sat at my sewing machine while I whipped this little number up! This girlie got so many compliments on her costume the last several parties we’ve been to, that Halloween tomorrow will not disappoint!

Tie Dye Your Summer with Tulip
We’re right smack in the middle of summer where we live, and what better way to live-up summer time than with Tie-Dye! I remember as a little girl taking a tie-dye class in the summer with my cousin. We were so excited to create the vibrant shirts that is conjured up when we think about a tie-dyed tee-shirt. We carefully selected our colors, and wound rubber band after rubber band around our white shirts. And when it came time for
