I can't get enough "tips and techniques for hems." I've been sewing for a long time and hems still baffle me. Also, I'll make some diapers to give to our local women's shelter. Thanks, Green Bag Lady and Sew, Mama, Sew!
This is so fun! I love Sew Mama Sew and I'm delighted to find you from their blog. I'm itching to try out their laptop bag... It's a little sleeve to put your laptop in. And there is a great little one for fabric stacking cubes for baby.
Thanks for the incredibly fun giveaway! And congratulations on #17,000!!
