I almost always use a pattern although ive been cheating a lot lately and just winging it or making my favorite blocks all over again out of different fabrics and arranging them differently. As a matter of a fact i am in michigan atm and ive been buying some new patterns with new techniques i cant wait to try out !! i also found some new gadgets i cant wait to try out as well. i think i need another vacation to play with my new toys but i need to have this one at home so i have all my stash and thread handy cause no matter how much i packed i seem to have missed a few things lol. This is my first attempt at sewing on the road so to speak and all the advice on what to bring along was perfect. this has been a great trip.
