So last week I FINALLY was able to set up my baby lock Coronet in my sewing room. Actually my husband helped me and we set it up on Thanksgiving Day. (Happy Thanksgiving to me!) The entire process took us less than 2 hours. We put it together in between my family's annual Thanksgiving morning race and dinner....although...admittedly...I was sorely tempted to skip the turkey and feast on fabric instead...but....in the end I opted for turkey and the Coronet would have to until the next ...

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. The line was called "Four Corners" and was a perfect representation of where each of our styles meet in the middle. (You can watch the video with all the details about it HERE.)

(And they only cost a fraction of the price to make!) Here is what you will need to make them: ... View the Post
