Random Bits of Information

There are a couple of swaps, sew alongs and just a few random bits that I wanted to share before the deadlines passed ... in case you didn't already have enough on your over committed plate ...

I recently signed up for these swaps:


Deadline to sign up is March, 17 or when they get 100 participants. Details here.


I stumbled upon this sweet stationary swap via SwapDex. Deadline to sign up is February, 27 so hurry up! Details here.






Lola Again is doing a secret sew along ... this definitely is tickling my MOJO. I've had the purses she's designed on my 'to-sew' list for faaarr tooo long. Details here.

And lastly, May(d) For Me! is coming back! I am determined to make some items for me this year so I'm already starting to plan ahead. I know I have 2 months until May but I want patterns/fabric/machine ready to roll come May. Here's what I have in mind ...

Ambitious I know. That's why I am planning now. Will you join me on some swapping-sewing adventures?

All of those swaps and sew alongs look fun! I'll have to check them out. Now, you know I'm in for the May(d) for Me...I still have the same dress cut out, pinned, and half sewn together from last May, OY! That's first on my list...come May :o)Oh, I hope it'll fit still...all that running has changed my girth a little bit.

I'm looking forward to May already! I'll be watching the Amy Butler patterns in particular--I can't wait to see how you'll make them your own. :c)

Those look like some great sew alongs! I'm just so busy right now, but I'm definitely saving some time for May(d) For Me...!
