Sew & Tell Saturday 4/12/12

05/12/2012

Welcome to Sew & Tell Saturday!
Here are some great projects featured from last week’s link up:
The fabric on this skirt made at Pinspiring looks like a European fishing village. I love it for summer!

A cute and quick skirt tutorial for big girls here and little girls as well  from Very Homemade. That fabric is psychedelic in a good way!

A nursing cover like this one  from Toni from Sugar Tart Crafts made is a perfect gift for a mom to be. It’s one of those gifts that she can have several of as well. A new mom could get really into it I suppose and match her nursing cover to her outfits… like I did sometimes!
I thought this dress Scruffy Badger made from the new Cambie dress from Sewaholic patterns was absolutely stunning! Polka dots! Piping! Pockets! A girl after my own heart…
Thanks to all of you who stopped by and are linking your projects.
Although I know I’m not one of the humongous projects link parties with 300 projects posted and thousands of page views a day, I do try to stop by and visit everyone posting. I have found some really great new blogs this way. But once in awhile the week catches up with me and I don’t get a chance to leave comments for everyone. 
Blogging requires discipline and sometimes we bloggers wonder, (or at last I do)”Why the heck am I doing this?”
 Last year I took all of my posts and made them into a book and this year I plan to do the same. But I do leave out the link party posts. I hope to have the books for my kids and grandkids to read someday. I think they would make a very nice creative legacy to leave to our families, don’t you?
So have your blog printed into a book. When you are a little old lady you can leaf through it and think,  “I sure did have a lot of fun doing that blog!”
You won’t remember any of the off days, of course.
So, thanks again!

    Love your party, Justine… lots of sewing projects all in the one place!!! I like the idea of printing your blog to a book. My husband has done that and it’s a fabulous record…

    Thanks so much for featuring me! Looks like I need to put away all my baby sewing and get started on some Mommy projects instead. Such great inspiration!
