Sew Pro: A Year Later

Last year about this time, hundreds of quilters descended upon Chicago for the Sew Pro Convention.  The convention was unique because it was about being a professional in the sewing industry.  You can read my initial recap here.

Blossom Blog Hop

Blossom Blog Hop

It is Day 2 of the Stitching Stars Blossom Blog hop, and I get to share with you my project inspired by “Blossom.”  As much as I wanted to be inspired by Mayim Bialik from the Blossom TV show, I figured showing my blossoming quilting skills was a much better idea.  I also gathered inspiration from Cherry Blossoms to have that floral spring touch as...

I attended the Sew Pro Convention this past weekend in Chicago.  My emotions while there went from excitement to anxious to overwhelmed to downright giddy.  There were so many things I learned that I’m figuring out how to turn into action steps for an overall plan to kick start my side hustle (aka future business). First and foremost, I would really like to thank the organizers...

I graduated almost 8 years ago?!

I’m back at my Alma Mater this week to recruit for my day job.  It’s unbelievable how fast time flies and I can’t believe just how much has changed.  Therefore, not much crafting/sewing/quilting this week at all!  After these few days on campus, I’ll be heading to Sew Pro in Chicago!  I’m so excited to meet everyone and learn more about the industry.  I have...
