I have two fun things for you to look at today, if you have a minute. The first is over at Sew Mama Sew, where I am a guest blogger and have posted a great little hooded tunic project for you to make. You can even see me modeling as a coy little riding hood type, only with more "facial character", if you know what I mean. Oh well. Age smage.
The other things is this: Debra Immergut- my pal and co-author and senior editor at Family Fun Magazine (so often she is my boss too)- and I have started up a new blog called Improv Diary. It is really new and just has a few posts currently, but keep checking in. It will be a great extension of our forthcoming book with Storey, called Improv Sewing: 101 Fast and Fearless Projects (May 2012). We will post thoughts and tutorials and things we like that express our love of the improvised and the creativity that comes from freeing yourself up to work with what you've got. And, Debra is a great writer and simply a pleasure to read.

I'm so glad I found you! I saw your tutorial on sew, mama, sew and had to check out your blog... you have great ideas :) Looking forward to following more of your crafty adventures!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Courtney. I hope you come by often.
ReplyDeleteI've just begun exploring the world of sewing with a sewing machine and this ended up being my project this weekend! I added in some darts/pleats (? not sure.. still new :) in the front as well! Thanks for the tutorial!
