New Fabric/New Find Friday #61

This Friday I have a new find, a great change from the new fabrics I have been showing you for the past few months. After making all of those really cute ruffled scarves that are featured on my Etsy site I realized there was a sewing machine foot that ruffles!!! I made those scarves by sewing them and then pulling the thread, this foot makes all of that so much easier. All you have to do is take your piece of fabric and sew it and it ruffles as you go. I LOVE IT!

I tried it out on some cotton tee shirt fabric and am looking forward to making a few scarves out of this type of material for a more causal looking scarf as compared to the more dressy scarf on my Etsy site. I also see lots of cute ruffles on shirts, onesies, and little girls skirts. I might become a ruffling fool!

What do you think? Would you want to own a more casual scarf or a more fun dressy one?

Foot Fetish

My sewing machine is an oldie but goodie Singer that I bought from my High School when they stopped offering sewing classes. It didn't come with all of the different sewing feet that makes sewing not only easier but fun. I finally decided to buy some for myself that will make quilting and sewing so much easier. Some are around 30 dollars so when they were on sale so I jumped and bought four of them!

I got the zipper foot, the walking foot, the 1/4" quilting foot, and the free-motion quilting foot.

I am so excited to use all of them and think it will make sewing some projects so much easier. Let's hope so.
