I would have to call myself a fabric junkie. I love solid colored fabric and prints and buy it even when I have no earthly idea of what I will do with it. I have so much fabric that my daughters always come by and "shop" in my sewing room before making a trip to the fabric store. And...

When I was a little girl growing up in South Africa, Fridays were always special baking days and cupcakes were my favorite thing to bake with my mother and sister. Even better than baking the cupcakes was the frosting and decorating of them afterwards. My mother would decorate each cupcake with twir...

If you are like
me, you subscribe to more than one embroidery and quilting magazine and scour
them all front to back when you finally get the chance. Sometimes I'm inspired
by the projects in the magazines but many times I'm overwhelmed. And any time
