Here is a little bit she wrote about herself!
My name’s Diana and I’m an enthusiastic crafter! I’m currently learning how to quilt, but I hope to blog about many crafts : quilting, sewing, knitting, cross-stitching, needlepoint, scrapbooking, no-sew blankets. I’m always trying to keep busy, learn new ins and meet new people with my same interests! Any age , experience and background welcome!! I hope that my blog can help you in putting a craft together and also give you an insight as to how I progress in my own projects! 🙂
Toodles for now,

Fixing a Dress

so, my roommate has a bachelorette party to go to this weekend, and the theme is Little Black Dress.  MY roommate ordered her dress online and when it arrived, it had 2 holes in it! I mean, come on! She just bought it, and it already had two holes in it. So, I spent my night evening fixing it. It was a manufacturer error. The serger slipped and at points never connected to the elastic that causes the ruching. So, I had to tear the seam out a few inches to make it flush with the rest. And here it is finished!

First Block Done For K and J Quilt

after slaving all night over a hot sewing machine, I have finished quite a bit. I have the center blocks done for a few blocks, and the borders done for 5 and 1 complete block as of 9AM! It took quite a while for me to settle on something I liked, and I’m glad I found this!
