It was probably me talking in my sleep. If you enjoy adding fabric to your home like I do, we should get along great! And none of this, “I wish I could sew” stuff. Anybody can sew, just get yourself a machine and you can figure it out. Even the more complicated projects can be tackled by a novice with determination, a decent sewing machine and a few sewing blogs to steer you in the right direction. You’ll love your home even more than you already do when you direct your creative energy toward personalizing the space with a clever window treatment here and a one-of-a-kind pillow there.

I’m mostly self-taught {by reading dozens of fabrication and design books, but have received instruction to the trade in home furnishings and window treatment construction} and make a conscious effort to use professional techniques in the projects I tackle.

Got a project you just can’t figure out? Let me help you. Looking for an online fabric resource? See my Fabric Files listing of online home decor fabric sites. Enjoy observing while someone else tears their house apart and puts it back together seemingly with the change in seasons? You’re in the right spot. Think you’re the only one who measures once and cuts twice? Nope. It’s probably because I flunked the math and had to change my Interior Design major to Advertising.
