Tuesday Tidbits #167 That’s How it All Began

I went and did it… I broke my own personal rule of only sewing on May 1st! That’s right folks… I pulled out the Sewing Machine!

I made the Table Runner and Napkins.

Who Knew I Would Enjoy Sewing Again?

I know, I know… napkins and a table runner are easy. But hey, I had to start somewhere, right? Now mind you, I took 3 years of Home Economics in high school… mainly to please my Mom. In my third year, I sewed my own Prom dress. Then if that wasn’t enough… I had to sew a plaid suit with lining and that dang plaid had to match! I got A’s on both projects. So… I know a wee bit about sewing. However, I think the plaid suit did me in!

Until… I saw this purple floral fabric the other day while shopping and I knew it would match my tea cups. Well that darn fabric jumped right into my shopping cart. That’s how it all began…

Then Came a Tea Cart

Now aren’t those napkins perfect for the new tea cart? Yes indeed! But something was missing…

Purple Glassware

My head started spinning… should I paint a few glasses to add to the tea cart that goes along with the napkins and table runner? Of course!

I decided to paint these glasses.

That’s How It All Began!

One thing led to another!

More Projects?

I bought more fabric!

You better believe it! There’s going to be more projects! Stay tuned… my head is spinning!
