Discover something new or make something new, right in your very own home.

Revisit the things in your closet (buried way back there – who knew I have 2 black tuxedo jackets) or revamp something to give it new life.

I recently combined my skill of embroidery with the need for something new to wear and I managed to pull off a cute and new-ish cardigan. I got the pattern from the Sublime Stitching website: http://www.sublimestitching.com/pinupswandpanthers.html

I basically learned how to embroider from Jenny Hart’s book Embroidered Effects http://www.sublimestitching.com/embroideredeffects.html I highly recommend this book, the instructions are super straight forward and it comes with lots of patterns that are easy to iron onto your fabric.


I also have to mention my favorite embroidery related website www.feelingstitchy.com which is one of the cutest and most inspirational craft website ever.
