Fleece



I'm in love with this time of year and with fleece I can't get enough of it and I know that as the weather gets colder I'll want more of it. This year I decided to get out my trusty little feather weight and try to sew. The fleece I've seen in the fabric stores is so fun and inexpensive that I thought why not? I use to sew all my clothes when I was in high school but it has been a while. After a few failed attempts at putting the pieces together correctly and with a friends help as a model I have my first lounge set sewn together. I have some kinks to iron out but all in all it was a good experience. I'm thinking of making some as Christmas gifts-one can never have to much fleece!

    Oh, how great! I love your fabric and your beautiful sewing machine! I love fleece as well, but I never wear it around the house because it picks up every cat and dog hair. Do you have that same problem? Hugs, Silke

    Shedless dogs?!? Could they maybe talk with Winslow and Ramses and tell them to ONLY shed outside? ;-) I have to vacuum dog/cat hair off the couch EVERY DAY! Not my favorite thing to do... Hugs, Silke

    I love fleece- so cozy this time of year, now if my cats were shedless I would not have to worry about the hair sticking right to it! But I guess thats what those sticky roll things are for! Your sewing machine is so cool.
