I had an extra special week because I got to spend it with my BFF, Jewells, plus a bonus visit with Jennifer R!

This week I finally get to work on my to do list and not just stuff to keep me occupied while waiting for my wrist to heal! I posted a new Raggedy Rescue Q & A last week and have a new rescue in the works. Fandom in Stitches updates will also be happening again starting later this week.

TTMT #745 – BFF Retreat 2023, #thriftcrawl Haul

Leave a reply

In which I share the amazing #thriftcrawl haul from almost a week with the world’s best BFF, Jewells68!

Y’all, it was so great to have her here, and I’m sure you can tell how happy it makes me. I was so excited, I even forgot to mention how completely awesome the new downstairs ceiling looks!

We hit Savers, Goodwill (two regular stores & the Outlet), Habitat Restore, Texas Thrift, Austin Creative Reuse, and the Austin Antique Mall. We also had a great time at Ikea!

As always, I miss her already. ♥

TTMT #554 – Hindsight

In which I have a surprise, talk about some charitable projects, and share my 2019 finishes!

I’d also like to clarify that I am not retiring from the internet or from TTMT OR from Fandom in Stitches. I’ve had lots of questions about that since announcing the closing of the Sewhooked shop. The shop is closed, but I’m not going anywhere! Sewhooked.com will continue to exist, but instead of pursuing quilting as a business, I am now doing it just for charity and for fun! This doesn’t mean there will never be a new design from me, there just won’t be any new ones for sale. If you have any questions, please do ask!

I realized after recording that I didn’t at all mention what dishcloth pattern I use. This is my go to, it’s easy peasy and they hold up really well!

My Super Simple Crochet Dishcloth

I Hook, cotton yarn
Ch 21 (loosely), sc in second ch from hook, dc in next. *sc in next, dc in next* to end. Ch-1, turn.
Repeat Until Square – sc in first st, dc in second, *sc in next, dc in next* to end. Ch 1, turn.
Optional – sc around evenly, 2 sc in each corner. Finish off.
