Pillowcase Dress/Pjamas Pants

I made one. Lots of tutorials all over the web..You grab a pillowcase, you cut the armholes and sew up a casing and insert ribbon. 99 cents 100% really soft cotton pillowcase with a lacy border from Savers. Ribbon from stash. I sometimes look at my kids and then look at NK and then look at the [...]

Monday Moneysavers

Whats that SRK says? The one Aneela keeps saying, the one about kayanat and universe. I pick up a sewing machine and find sewing classes close by. I need fabric and what do I find..  Someone giving fabric away for FREE on CL. Yup I got the fabric for FREE.. My favourite 4 letter word. Nk [...]

The First Project

I had my first sewing lesson on Thursday. It was a one on one for 2 hours.  The instructor showed me how to thread the machine, how to use the bobbin. She was amazed at the machine. She couldnt believe how well it was stitching. We only had time to try one other feet. A narrow [...]

I like old things

I have been pretty good. No garage saling. No estates sales. No thrift store shopping, hence no Monday Moneysavers. Plus I’m been running around like a frog without a tail.(whatever that means) Anyways, Thursday..I went to my favourite cafe, had coffee and a pancake(the owner cracks up at me when I order ONE pancake and [...]

My Extraction Update II

My dentist, I must clarify is sort of a friend now. She is a young mom to 2 girls who also blogs. She offered to drive me home so that NK wouldnt have to drag all 4 out by himself. And the fact that I live 3 mins from the dentist’s office helps. I have [...]

The extraction.

It went well, NK dropped me early. My dentist have me some drug(something like Valium but whose name I forgot) and it made woozy in 20 mins. I remember walking to the dentist chair and the oral surgeon asking me to clench the ball and he said something about my veins and I asking him [...]
