"I would love the Simply Red Bernina machine. My favorite nursery rhyme is Wee Willie Winkie"

"I have spent months on a family quilt as you go quilt for my mom. I had simple coloring book patterns many years ago as patches for family members. We embroidered these and I had the family members sign on a white sheet of material. These were embroidered too. Lovely momento."

"I am just starting to organize my fabric. Who knew it would be such a big job! I bought comic book boards to wrap my fabric around. I will eventually get another shelving unit or bookcase to store it on. Thanks so much for the wonderful ideas!"

"If that's the way you want to draft your patterns there are several good books and other websites about the subject. But except for the few designs which are only basically made from rectangles such as a gathered skirt, it is not possible to just "give instructions" for drawing the crutch curve on trousers, or a neckline or a sleeve head. I agree that perhaps those curves could be the only bit you need to print off and the length of any straight lines could be shown, but don't forget websites of this sort need to cater for people with less skill and experience than you apparently have. You could always do a print preview and decide which pages you need to print and which you could guesstimate using common sense, such as the leg on a pair of trousers."

Hanging Toiletry Clutch

By: Cat W from marymarthamama.com

"Pack all of your shampoo, conditioner, lotions, soap, and other toiletry products in this super cute toiletry clutch. When folded up it's a cute little clutch that fits easily into your suitcase. When unfolded it's a fantastic hanging toiletry bag that has a zippered pouch for small items and pockets for larger items. The great thing about this project is that it's completely customizeable- change the dimensions, number, or position of the pockets and pouch to perfectly suit your needs."
