Funky Town Brown colorway ( with song to match) |
Here's my theoretical breakdown as to why:
25%: left-handedness
20%: small, crab-like hands with big knuckles
30%: complete inability to cut a straight line
25%: irrational, paralyzing fear
SO... I received some of my fabric from Northcott. The fabric arrived in large, one-piece swaths. I needed to break them down into single yards in order to send the fabric off to people who have the magical talents to transform them into stuff. (From now on, I will refer to these people as genius sewing fairies.) I dreaded this task. All week, every night, I wondered how on earth I was going to section it out without butchering it beyond recognition. I had no idea how my poor fabric would fare under Kathy Scissorhands.

I love the "Andy Warhol" -type effect when it is done creatively, and this iconic Elmo print has got it going on. Paired with other elements like the super-trendy stitchery, the distressed texture, the monotone, everything adds up to a fresh and modern take on Elmo. (Check out this Jolly Jabber blog post to see Red Tonal Elmo with mixers that really add up to a WOW statement!)
not too symmetrical. All of this equals= I love it!
Hey, I love every Amy Schimler fabric collection I've ever laid eyes on, but how cool is it to see her working in a little bit more of a modern graphic style? I love seeing her desi

Hello folks, it's been a while hasn't it? I would like to say that I have been off adventuring but instead I have been sitting at my little desk working away. I just finished up two books for mother's day and father's day for Little Simon (Simon & Schuster) and am now busy working on another project.

Creel is quite a heroine. As an adult reader, I love her. I do. But I know I would have loved, loved, loved her as a child. This is the kind of book I wish had been around when I was growing up! Then again, I'm just as happy to continue the friendship now. It's not too late for me or for you. Discover the magical world Jessica Day George has created and meet Creel and her friends (and enemies) yourself! I look forward to reading more of her work in the future. http://www.dragonslippers.net/ http://www.jessicadaygeorge.com/ http://www.jessicadaygeorge.com/Blog.aspx

I too, am a horror with scissors and I blame in mostly on being left-handed :) But my mom started teaching me to quilt this year so she bought me a rotary cutter and mat and it's amazing. Even I can't screw up cutting my fabric now!
PS-lovely fabric collection!
PS - THANK YOU!! :D :D
Thank you Stephanie! Another person also mentioned the rotary cutter. I actually bought one years ago, but it never worked for me as advertised, LOL. I should give it another shot, buy a new blade for it and try try again. :D
