I made a pillowcase dress!

I made a pillowcase dress and now I’m addicted and want to make more! This particular one actually fits me as a top too. Neat huh? It’s cold outside so we put stockings and a long sleeve shirt underneath but it will be even prettier in the summer time. First one I ever made…

This Working Mom’s Fantasy

What you are about to read is a sequence of events that is completely a fantasy. A dream. A hope. In this optimistic crafter’s eyes, perhaps one day, a reality…

I’ve been sewing. Who knew I could sew? I didn’t! I mean, I could do the basics. Nothing fancy. I can’t read a pattern to save my life, and nothing has changed there. I took a Fashion Design elective course in highschool that was a complete disaster. My [...]

I need a little help making up my mind. I started making beaded jewelry, oh, I guess about 3 and a half years ago. I started off making baby bracelets because I had a brand new baby girl and after having two boys I just had to have her as dolled up as [...]

The Mad Hatter, Farmville VA

Russell and Doug, The Mad Hatter, Open Mic Night.

This place, in my opinion, should be packed every night and every day. I’m a huge fan. Russell and I are not from this area and have always yearned for a place to hang out, drink good brew (coffee or beer), enjoy good music, [...]
