Today as part of our By Popular Demand fabric tour we wanted to share some quick tips and tricks for working with knit fabric...since By Popular Demand was designed for knits!!! Knit fabrics are made very differently than woven fabrics (like quilting cottons)...they are made to move and stretch while wovens are (for the most part) meant to stay stationary...so they do need to be handled differently...which has a tendency to make some people nervous. But knits are not scary to work with and ... View the Post

By Popular Demand Fabric Tour
A year and a half ago Elizabeth and I were lucky enough to debut our first fabric line with Riley Blake Designs.

I ... View the Post

(And they only cost a fraction of the price to make!) Here is what you will need to make them: ... View the Post
The Art of Homemaking: Homemade Cream Puff Recipe
"They grow so fast." My 11 year old is into baking lately. It started when she wanted to make her own "rosette" birthday cake herself and every weekend she's been asking for some baking lessons. She picks the recipe, I make sure we have the ingredients, and then we bake. It's turned into a fun mommy and me time...and those moments with 11 year olds are fewer and farther between, so I will take all that I can get! Today for the Art of Homemaking Hannie and I are sharing one of our ... View the Post
