1,000 Clever Sewing Shortcuts & Tips & Sewing World Magzine-October Issue

I paid a visit to Barnes & Nobles Bookstore on Wednesday and look what I found: The book :1,000 Clever Sewing Shortcuts & Tips by Deepika Prakash of Patternreveiw.com. I was pleasantly surprised. This book is full of interesting tips provided by sewists offering tips on Patternreview.com. It also features tips from Master Teachers, Sarah Veblen, Susan Khalje, Kenneth D. King, the late Shannon Gifford, and Anna Mazur. After making it home, I actually read through this book, could not put it down. This book is a must have.


As you can see from the picture below, this book is well laid out. Congratulations, Deepika on a job well-done. This book is awesome and quite intertaining.




I usally grab a copy of Sewing World Magazine each month. This October issue included a surprise. It highlighted bloggers, Gertie over at www.blogforbettersewing.com and Bunny of www.lasewist.blogspot.com. I read their blogs quite often and enccourage you to take a peek in. I believe Gertie is sponsoring the "Lady Grey" coat sew-a-long which I did not have the time to enter. Sorry!!




Well, that's it for now. Just wanted to share. BTW, I did make some muslins of skirts, pants and a dress but just not feeling the fit to make up. Still plugging along though. I'm also still learning how to get better pics. LOL

Until Next Time,
