Custom Curtain Inspiration

Having moved in the spring of 2007 you'd think we'd already have all our windows outfitted with curtains right? Sigh. No.

We've slowly progressed with our curtains - first we found a steal for the windows downstairs, then we splurged for blackout curtains in our bedroom and we're left with a good 5 windows left in the landing and two spare bedrooms.

I am thinking about just sewing up from fabric I like instead of searching and searching for the right ones on sale. I really love these sewn tie-up curtains from Making It Lovely! So lovely!!

Getting all sorts of crafty inspirations as of late! Here's the latest sewing project that has me itching to stitch. A lovely tote from the crafty blogger over at Cicada Daydream. I love the colors - I love the simple design. I love it! Can't wait to get home and sew!!! I have a few birthdays coming up and this is exactly the push I needed to get crafting!!

DIY Hot Pad Tutorial from My Byrd House

With my newest obsession being fabric it only makes sense that I start obsessing about learning how to sew, right?? Just what my husband wants to hear - new obsession = new things to buy. Hey, it SAVES money in the long run right? I mean I WOULD be making things I would normally have to buy at full retail price...things like hot pads, curtains, gifts - oh the possibilities!

Anyways, this great little DIY hot pad tutorial is from Lucy at My Byrd House and looks like something I might be able to tackle (with a sewing machine of course!).

Thanks to the wonderful Craftzine for getting me there!
