WEEK OF 04.07.25

I really felt like playing with fabric this week, and it wasn’t until I took my sewing machine out of the closet that I remembered I kept breaking needles the last time I used it. Something wasn’t working — still — so I futzed and I futzed and finally realized I had my dang thread on the bobbin winder instead of the spool holder. After that, these pins were super quick! I cut with abandon, and wasn’t precious about… any of it. I’m really happy with how they turned out! They’re cute!*

* I did not make the black-and-white checkered sweater!
