Escape to a Sightseeing Venture With Capri Fabrics by Katarina Roccella! from Art Gallery Fabrics-The Creative Blog

One of my favorite things about sewing is getting lost at the sound of my sewing machine!

Fabric Concertina Book

The book is the story of the last two years. It goes from being full of fear to eventually finding joy. It's also bilingual (English and French) except for the title and end pages.

Tiny Foldover Pouch (free YouTube video) from Sotak Handmade

Hello friends,

today I'd like to share a super adorable little pouch I designed for my YouTube channel.
