Now the question of the day is, "What do you find yourself sewing most often?" Which isn't always the same as "What is your favorite thing to sew?" I ask this question today because this week is all about ragged projects here on the blog...and I love them...and there was a time when I was doing craft fairs when I was sewing about 15 ragged tote bags a day.

Your First Sewing Project
What was your first sewing project that you completed on your own? Do you remember? I do. I never wanted to sew or do anything even remotely related to anything domestic...you've all heard my stories...getting kicked out of junior high home ec...crying when my mom gave me a sewing machine for my first married Christmas...etc etc etc...so when my mom dragged me to a quilting class I figured the only redeeming part of the night would be the fact that the quilt shop shared a parking lot with ...
