Making Things that are Easy and Quick Everything I do is not always sewing as you could see from my Polar Fleece edging blog. Now I am sewing today, but I am planning a room divider. I really don't lift heavy things, but I have a doorway that is just a hole to under the stairs where I store things. I want to put a room divider there. A. I can't find anything I like. B. They are probably heavy. So I am going to put random pieces of cardboard together to the size I want and then cover it with Library fabric that looks like books on shelves. This has been something I have been searching for and have not been able to find for a month or two. So I decided to make one. Sew, I am posting a picture of the divider I fashioned.

SewalongwithKitty.com Yes, that's me. Always made my clothes even when I was a Real Estate Broker, or a Budget Anyalyst for the Government... Or when I worked at different Banks. I remember that shirtwaist to this day..That was probably 40 years ago. Lovely lightweight cotton and I put an elastic casing at the waist so I wouldn't have to make a belt... That sweatshirt jacket matched perfectly and I just turned under the edges of the front and topstitched. I have always loved sewing and wearing pretty colors. I like the control of picking the colors and styles you want. Make anything and feel so much better after you make it and wear it and say... "I did that!".... No matter what else might go wrong, I know I can always make an outfit and feel good about myself. You should too.
