I'm not talking about giving away fabric....although I've recently given tons away....I'm referring to the "mo-jo breaks" I've been taking during my sewing.
Here are some of my favorites:
Uptown Funk
Double Dutch Bus
Brick House
After these three I was quickly reminded why I have refrained from busting a move in the last few years.....my left ankle was hurting big time. Chronic pain is a very ugly reality not only in my life but in the lives of so many of the people I know. No fun!
My broken ankle was the biggest reason I slowed my blogging and then stopped all together. I'll share more about that soon.
After taking a long break from sewing I finished two projects in one week....can I get a high five....just one will do you can stop all the party dancing now...LOL.
This is the wall hanging I made for George, Mary Jane's brother. He is in a nursing home recuperating and I thought it would add some color to his room.
This is a cheater panel that I picked up from our guilds free table. (Thank you Barb for donating it :)
The other project I finished is a tote bag for Cloe, a gal we are going to visit in France soon.
This is a lined tote bag and I don't like it when the lining goes up to the top so I stitched the outer fabric to the top of the lining fabric.
I did this because I don't like it when the lining fabric shows at the top of the tote.
Naturally my rotary blade was dull and this was denim fabric....so I had to pull out my handy rotary blade sharpener.
This is the only sharpener I have found to really work on my rotary blades. If you don't have one and need one....you can find it by clicking HERE. Since blades are expensive I do my best to sharpen and reuse the ones I have before purchasing new blades.
Hope your day is a dandy one!

I just stitched the outlines...simple.
