March is just around the corner, and I'm having lovely dreams of spring! I'm going to grab a cup of tea, pour through some gardening magazines, and hope the tulips and daffodils are getting ready to visit. I pulled out my Tea Time Collection this weekend for my private little tea party.
This set, which is made in a 5x7 hoop, has everything you need to make a cozy placemat, sweet coasters, and a pretty napkin ring. It even includes a tea bag holder! The Tea Time Collection is on sale this week.
I wanted to embroider something "springy", so I used a border from Spring Accents to make a cheerful dresser scarf. I added a whole bunch of long borders to the set - have I mentioned how much fun I'm having with the larger hoops?
The 54 sweet designs in this set can be embroidered on anything! I used some linen coasters from All About Blanks to make this simple coverlet. I embroidered a design on each coaster, then sewed them all together with pretty ribbon. You can find instructions to make the coaster coverlet here.
The borders are prefect for spring and Easter dresses, too. Or maybe on a pair of little boy's shorts! Spring Accents is on sale this week. If you've already bought this set, make sure to download it again to get the 18 new borders I've added!
I finally got the Spring 2021 issue of Classic Sewing in the mail! I just love browsing through this magazine - there are so many pretty things to look at, including my Sew Crazy projects. You can find the Sew What mini quilt and the Sew Cute pillow here.
If you are a Classic Sewing subscriber, you can download the Sew Sweet pillow for free! This project will be available as a gift with purchase on my site in December.
Once Upon a Time there was a Spooky black dragon who attacked a magical castle and tried to carry the beautiful princess away. But the handsome prince closed the portcullis just in time to save the beautiful princess, and the kingdom was saved.
Spooky and I have been designing the wishing well for the Once Upon a Time Village, but as you can see, we take lots of breaks to play! The Castle is still on sale this week.
I'm off to finish your Sew Handy gift with purchase for March! Thank you so much for reading, and I hope wherever you are, spring is on its way!
