Favorite Things From The Week

Links to my favorite bits of news this week.

Sewing & Quilting

  • If your to-make Christmas list isn’t long enough, add some of these to your list.
  • Need more time to sew?  Maybe this post will help.
  • Thank you Ashley for your honesty about this quilt.  It’s not her favorite but she finished it anyway.  Do you have any projects like this laying around?
  • Quilting is pretty sedentary.  Help your spine and mobility with this 20 minute yoga video.  My back was in a giant knot earlier this week with grown up job meetings and trying to finish some sewing.  It really helped release my back.  Try it.

Business

  • I’ve been reading more about blogging and found White Oak Creative.  It’s been nice reading how others blog outside of just sewing & quilting.
  • Maybe you don’t have an Etsy shop but this article is great for makers as we enter into the Holiday season.  Practice saying no.  It’s hard when a friend REALLY wants something for a loved one, but you need time to enjoy the holidays too.  Trust me, it’s awkward to say no, but stick to your guns and enjoy your holiday season.
