FABRICADABRA is my Sewing Blog, with other bits of interest sprinkled in for fun. I love fabric and creating things from it. FOLLOWING MRS. SUNDBERG is learning what it means to make something for the joy of making it. She's a down-home, comfort-focused, smack dab in the heartland kind of woman, who has a gift for writing, cooking, and generally pointing out the small wonders of every day. THE RUBY THROAT DIARIES documents my passion for these little birds. ©Please respect that everything shared here, including my photos holds personal value and is copyright protected by me, the photographer and writer.

Baby Slippers

The center square in these pieced blocks is 1/4". My vision may never be the same.

Last pair of shoes done, and I would probably make another pair, but I am tired of sewing for a while. I get muscle aches from sitting so tensely and I keep making myself relax, but it doesn't last. I wish I could sew lying down, that would make things sew! much easier. I am glad, however, that I decided to make these gifts. I know how I felt when I got handmade things, and handmade baby gifts are extra special. I think I need a nap.

Thank you very much, Rachel. Sorry it has been a while since I have visited my own page to see your comment. I had a hysterectomy in August, and we moved about 50 miles from one home to another. I had to pack like a crazy woman until I had the surgery, then sit still for a month because I promised the Dr. I would not lift anything. Then it was on to packing again, and I ran out of energy about 3pm every day. :-) The move happened last Saturday, Oct. 29, and I am still unpacking, so when I get my machines back up and running, I will try and post more regularly.
