Round two with the sewing machine

The itsy-bitsy sundress was sort of a success — I might have forgotten to mention the wonky seam at the waist — so I am moving on to Project #2!

I really want to try making a flannel patchwork quilt pour bebe. Flannel because it’s so cuddly, and also because I have noticed very cute printed flannels in the fabric store, and have never had the guts to buy them … until today!
Going to the fab store after work, and am totally inspired by the design over at Make-Your-Own-Baby-Stuff.com. Will keep you posted on how it turns out!
P.S. I had totally forgotten my prenatal vitamin, but writing this post reminded me to take it. Thanks, Blogosphere!

I’m Heather Laura Clarke. I’m a writer living in beautiful Nova Scotia, I have a 12-year-old son and a 10-year-old daughter, I married my high school sweetheart, and this is the story of my handmade life.

I have depression and anxiety, and I fight like hell every day to keep them from taking over my life. Creating things helps.

Whether I’m writing novels, decorating a room, busting out my power tools to build furniture, getting muddy in the pottery studio, sewing clothes, or cross-stitching a swear word, I’m all about using my creativity to craft a life I love.

I’ve been writing this blog since 2009, so if you dig deep into the archives, you’ll meet a bright-eyed 25-year-old newlywed who was basically obsessed with having kids, buying a cozy house, and supporting herself full-time with her writing. (Spoiler alert: she got exactly what she wanted.)
