Scout Tee – Grainline Studio – Indie Pattern Review

Two years ago, I made the Tiny Pocket Tank from another Art Gallery Fabrics voile and loved everything about it! When we decided to start carrying Grainline Studio patterns at Sew Dayton, it was because we wanted patterns that are great staples for your wardrobe and easy, yet fun for the beginner seamster to sew up.

When it comes to any hiccups or hard parts on this pattern, well there just isn't any. This really is a great beginner pattern and a perfect go to pattern for your tee shirts. I would HIGHLY recommend this pattern to anyone just getting into sewing knits, also as a staple pattern to have.

I always say, no matter how much we already know you can always learn something new. Open a book, website, or blog, take a class that is labeled for beginner, even if you think your skill is higher. I bet you will learn a tip or trick or two; there is something to be said for taking it back to the basics now and then, it's refreshing.

Houston, I Have Landed – Houston Quilt Market

I know this is a few months past.. but it took me a while to process all the fantastic things/feelings that are Houston Quilt Market. The first trip is in the books,  walking through those convention doors, the mass amount of space that was in front of me, the twisting aisles of fabric, quilts, notions, clothing, tools, designers, and industry professionals… Overwhelming. But exciting and inspiring at the same time.
