Voila! A Bernina Cozy!

Ain't she a beaut! Thanks to Spool and their excellent tutorial/pattern (Philly, I miss you). I had to customize like the dickens as my Bernina ain't a skinny girl and I like a bit of structure to my cozy. Of course I realized this after sewing her up most of the way and had to go back in and add heavy weight interfacing after the fact, but y'know, whatevs. I like her! I like her a lot! She provided excellent distraction from the final paper I was supposed to be working on. I found making the Bernina Cozy infinitely more satisfying.

Book reviews coming soon - I've got the new Martha Stewart Encyclopedia of Sewing and Fabric Crafts and One Ball Knits: Gifts all lined up and ready to go. I just have to get through this last week of school.

There Has Been Stuff! Stuff in progress at least, which is good because its all stuff that I think will actually work. So, I decided to rip, rip, rip out my hourglass sweater because I had seen some results I didn't like and when I went over what I had started I realized that I was knitting it a size too large. I tend to do that with sweaters, which is why I have yet to knit a really...

Book Review: Martha Stewart's Encyclopedia of Sewing and Fabric Crafts Look what I got in the mail the other day: And its so good! Martha Stewart's Encyclopedia of Sewing and Fabric Crafts is the high quality book you would expect from Martha, in all her glory, AND the projects are really accessible and useful. Now don't get me wrong, it tickles my funny bone to no end when Martha glitters twigs from the backyard, glues felt birds to them and puts them on the mantle...
