I just started sewing and love it love it love it!!!  My daughter loves those fuzzy chenille like pillows that are all fuzzy and soft and cushie I don't want to pay 20 dollars for a 8 inch square pillow. So I decided to buy the fabric! :::dundudun:: And the hell begins. I decided to cut the pillow out.  Lil' fuzzies were flying everywhere! It lost so many fuzzies that I swear it now has bald spots......... LOL And then I try to sew it together... (pink fuzzies still flying everywhere).... And my machine is having a very difficult go at it...... I think maybe now I know why they charge 20 dollars for it LMAO... Anyone else had this problem? Any suggestions on a better experience with this fabric next time?

That is such a tease, isn't it? But honestly, I just started and love it love it love it!!!  My daughter loves those fuzzy chenille like pillows that are all fuzzy and soft and cushie I don't want to pay 20 dollars for a 8 inch square pillow.

  So here goes, I have a wonderful house with lots of 'yardage' I am a sewer too .  My front yard is pretty plain at this point it has a bed under the kitchen windows, which is full of holly bushes. (I am okay with that) And then I have a bed under my large living room window, this bed will be empty as soon as I move the Holly bush (unless anyone thinks it should stay) I have a black thumb,but am trying to learn how to get a green one. We are on a corner lot located in a downtown area with a lot of traffic and I want it to look stunning.  Any suggestions? The size is about 30 x 60 and empty except for a large oak tree on the right end kinda in the middle of that end Sorry details are so confusing but I couldn't get my pics to upload.  Any suggestions would be greatly appreciate. Also, I am very crafty, I just lack the originality part here lately for some reason............. ... Thanks again!!!!


  This is near my kitchen windows.... and my bare sidewalks....



This is the flower bed that I was speaking of demolishing to build a tranquility pond.... Whaddya think?


This is my front door and my large living room window I would like to do something with both but I am not sure what.......

OKAY............... SO all suggestions are greatly appreciated!!!!
