September Showcase


Good morning!
This past month I got some real neat deals on some cool things and I thought I'd share them with you.

July Showcase

Hello lovely people.
Squeee! I have a showcase this month!
I haven't done one in a while because times they are tight, but these past few weeks I was able to pick up a few goodies for myself and I'm quite happy for my choices.

First some patterns I acquired.

December Showcase: brooch edition

Good morning everyone. 
It's raining this morning so I had to cut Brian's walkies short. He's just had breakfast and now is chewing on a bone. I love having a dog in the house again.

November Pattern Showcase


My sad little Christmas tree. It needs some work.
Good morning you lovely people. I know I didn't do a showcase last month. Frankly I didn't get much in the way of patterns, or anything at all on October. But November was a plentiful harvest for sure, wink, wink.

August Showcase!

Hi everyone. I hope the last days of August have been good for you. Me? It's been a strange.


Apparently my phone line provider (the one that carries my DSL) disconnected my phone line AFTER I paid them. Well, they didn't just disconnect the line, they terminated my DLS service, which is ran by another company! WTF! Who does that! In any account, my DSL tried to remedy the situation by terminating AT&Ts termination request, which they did, but they also put in a new request and well, that screwed everything up. So here I sit, in the hall of my building on mooched wi-fi on the lame battery of my laptop. I'm looking at two weeks until my service is reinstated. Geeze, what did I do to deserve this!?

July Goodies Showcase!

And now I get to share some of the goodies I acquired last month. 

I know that I didn't post a June Pattern Showcase, and right now, quite frankly, I forget what I bought in June! I actually don't think I got many, if any patterns that month. I've been on a kick of getting goodies for the apartment. And yes, I'm still waiting to hear back on my couch.

This is a lovely novelty WWII postcard. Gotta love these!

May Pattern Showcase!!

Happy Friday one and all!

First, I'd like to thanks you all for your comments on my previous post. They were honest, encouraging, and very insightful. You all are awesome.

For what it's worth, I went back to Lindygroove last night and I guess I must have purged the bad thoughts from my mind in that post because I had a good time, and I was worried I would not. I danced, had fun, and didn't care. I think that was the most important part. I didn't care. So thanks you all. I feel a lot better.

Now back to sewing:)
This past month was not very pattern heavy. 


April Pattern Showcase!!!!

Happy May, everyone! It's time for another showcase of my gets this past month.


The above 30s blouse and jumper set is awesome.

February Pattern Showcase!!

Good morning ladies and germs!
This past month in pattern shopping was precise and very splurgy. 
I got some good things! Here are a few.

My new most expensive pattern.

January Pattern Showcase!

Happy February everyone! As I finally unpack my sewing goodies (which seem to be a good 1/5 of all my belongings), I found my stash of last month's goodies.

Because of my sudo-fast, I didn't buy a lot of patterns. I did skip eBay and got some from a few vendors online, as well as Etsy.



December Pattern Showcase!!

Happy New Year everyone!
Hope your celebrations were grand and
you are expecting some great new things for 2012.
I for one have some great things happening this year.
I'm moving! I got a great super large one bedroom that I will be
moving into in a couple of weeks. I'll post more pictures on that soon.

As far as patterns, I've been so decadent in my collecting this past month. 
It was Christmas after all. 
I posted some patterns here, but here are some more from my monthly hoard.

'Sew-Knit' patterns are hard to find, but alas,
 this one does not have the knitting instructions.

November Pattern Showcase!!

Good morning everyone! I hope your last month of the year is going good.
Patterns for this past November have been very precice.


September Pattern Showcase!!

Welcome to October! I hope this month is going to be a grand one. I've got employment, prospects, and my etsy store is still humming. I'm adding new items all the time, so things are looking up! Yay!

My addition of patterns this past September was not too bad.
I did get some nice ones, I think.


June Pattern Showcase!!

I know I've been MIA for a few days. This past weekend I got sick and couldn't do half the things I wanted to. Crumbs. But I'm back and aside from working on an illustration, I plan to do some more sewing  this weekend to finish out Make and Mend.

Hope people had a good 4th. As for the patterns I acquired in June, here are some.
