Thank you for stopping by! My name is Christy but my friends call me Chris. Yall sewing completely took over my life around the Spring of 2010; I started out as a bag lady and eventually began to sew my own clothes too. Fabric is my kryptonite; and I love an “ugly” fabric because somehow it always sews into something beautiful! I wake up and go to sleep thinking of sewing or something sewing related like the crazy sewing lady I am.
*I was born and raised in Sunny California! I’ve since moved to Nevada and it’s still nice and sunny! I grow over 150 houseplants nowadays all of who will grace this page quite often with posts along with my sewing stuff.
*I sew nearly every day and if I don’t sew I’m reading about sewing, looking at sewing magazines, looking for inspo on the internet, or something else sewing or fabric based…it really is an addiction but hey things could be worse amiright? Same thing with houseplants. Plants are another piece of my soul’s addictions and I always have a new delivery of plant mail just like fabric mail rolling in. The FedEx guy’s name is Terry and he grows plants too; but he doesn’t sew! LOL!
*I don’t have a favorite color; I just could never choose one out of so many….I love all colors but now that I think about it I do prefer brighter and primary colors over pastels and other softer ones…Although you can probably kidnap me with a neon plant; any neon plant.
*Vintage stuff and anything old school is my thing too; I still watch Mad Men reruns to this day (if you haven’t met Don and Betty Draper you may want to soon)….I love to sew with patterns from back in the day, they are so much easier to work with. I always make modesty look pretty ASF–I’m a dressmaker.
Come back and visit as much as you like and bonus points if you sew and/or grow plants too!
Best,
Christy
