Disney x Thomas Kinkade Mickey and Minnie Mouse Quilt Panel- Fabric and Future Plans
Hi everyone! A few years ago, I noticed the Walmart location I normally shop at had a fabric panel for sale. It is part of the Disney x Thomas Kinkade collection. It features Micky and Minnie Mouse on a picnic, as depicted by Thomas Kinkade Studios. I really liked this panel, but I thought I didn’t need another fabric panel to work on. After walking by it for many months, I decided to purchase it and a coordinating fabric to create a wall hanger.

Current Sewing and Knitting Projects- May 2022
It’s been a while since I wrote a post about my current sewing projects and the progress I made on them. Since I’m in between finishing sewing projects and finishing knitting projects, I wanted to write a post about what I’ve been working on and how far I am to finishing them. Also, I want to talk about my future plans for sewing projects. I have future plans for knitting project, but they take so long to finish I decided not to talk about them in a post at this time.

Making Belle’s Beauty and the Beast Live Action Movie Yellow Ballgown Part 2: The Fabric
A few years ago, after I decided to make Belle’s dress from the live action version of Beauty and the Beast, I decided to buy all the things I needed to make the dress. The major supply I needed to buy is the fabric to make the dress.

Making Belle’s Beauty and the Beast Live Action Movie Yellow Ballgown Part 1: The Pattern & How I’m Adding Sleeves
In a previous post, I talked about making Belle’s yellow ballgown from the live action version of Beauty and the Beat. When I saw the dress, I, like a lot of people, didn’t like it. To me, it looked more prom dress that was inspired by Belle’s ballgown than Belle’s actual ballgown. It didn’t fit it very well with the other character’s costumes and the time period those costumes are inspired by. Despite this, the dress began to really grow on me. In fact, it grew on me so much, I purchased a Simplicity sewing pattern of the dress and fabric to make myself one. Even though I felt very…

Future Sewing Projects: January 2022
Hi everyone! I’ve been going through my fabric stash to see what I would like to work on and when I want to work on it. One of my sewing goals for the year is to put more effort into using my fabric stash instead of buying new fabric. I will buy new fabric only when I need to, but ideally my projects will need to include some of my fabric from my fabric stash. I’m not sure how well this will work out, but I’m optimistic I can work on all the sewing projects I wanted to for many years but couldn’t. So far I’ve found fabric for many…

5 Costumes I Would Like to Make in 2021
It’s almost the end of July, but I would like to make something to wear for Halloween. I like to plan and make Halloween costumes early because my work load can be inconsistent, so there is always a chance I cannot work on a costume in October. For many years I had to scrap my Halloween sewing plans for a variety of reasons, mostly work or health related, but I wanted to change that for 2021. This year, I narrowed down my list of to-make costumes to five. (Actually, it’s five and two maybes. While writing this post I remembered there are two “costumes” that I wanted to make, but…

Simplicity x Disney’s Cruella Sewing Patterns at Joann’s
Hi everyone! Recently, I received an email that Joann’s has exclusive fabric and sewing patterns inspired by Disney’s new movie, Cruella. I was curious, so when I had the chance to go to Joann’s, I went to see the patterns. I found the patterns in a display located on the table where the pattern books are…

Weekly Sewing & Life Update- April 26- May 2, 2020
April 26- May 2 was supposed to be the last week of Arizona’s stay at home order, but in mid week it was decided Arizona would keep the stay at home order in place and slowly open up buissnesses. Although this was sad to see this (I really would like to see my friends again!) I did a lot of sewing this week.

Costuming Sewing Plans for 2020
It’s almost 2020 and it’s time to start planning for new sewing projects. I’m not sure what kind of general sewing projects I want to work on, but I already have an idea of what kind of costumes I would like to make. Although I make a costuming sewing plan list every year, I don’t finish anything on my list. In this coming year, I already gathered all the fabric, patterns, and, with some costumes, all the supplies I need to make them. All I need to do is sew them! Because I’m so prepared to start sewing, I’m extremely confidant that I will complete nearly everything on this list.…

Frozen 2 Learn to Sew Olaf Body Pillow Finished and Video
It’s been a few weeks since I mentioned that I sewed an Olaf body pillow using a Frozen 2 Learn to Sew kit I found at Walmart. Since Frozen 2 will be in theaters later this week, I wanted to show what the pillow looks like when it’s all done. Here is Olaf’s front… And Olaf’s back… I’m very happy with the way the pillow turned out. It isn’t as big as some body pillows I saw in store, but I know that this is the right size for a child to use as a body pillow. I’m glad the pillow is so small because I hope to give it…
