God Tier John Hood Tutorial – I took liberties with this based on my own knowledge of garment making, but I used the hood dimensions exactly and it worked out perfectly. If you’re looking for a tutorial to use, this one will be hard to beat.

….and the winner is!

It’s bucketing down rain today in Austin, which is good news for us as we slowly climb out of severe drought. I’m hoping for a green spring and NO fires.

The rainy day has put our Saturday plans on the back burner. Instead, I’m going to spend my day cleaning and rearranging my sewing space. It’s time to purge things I don’t foresee myself using and tidy up those things I need easy access, too.

My cutting table is also a wibbly wobbly mess and I’m planning to swap it out with another table that will be re-purposed from another area of our house. Fingers crossed that it goes well and I’ll be back to stitching in a couple of days!

Carol, the winner of the free PDF pattern from my Learning Center post earlier in the week, chose Stellar Stripes as her prize. Carol, I hope you enjoy and can’t wait to see your version!

Reminders:

In honor of my participation in the STITCHED Tutorial Blog Hop, get 15% off your TOTAL PURCHASE from the Sewhooked Shop during the month of March with coupon code MARCH15. Not valid on etsy or craftsy.

Hi Jennifer, Something you may not know about me is that I was in a near fatal rollover in November, 2009. My recovery took a big leap when I stumbled onto your website. I was looking for pillowcase directions after reading about the One Million Pillowcase challenge. It wasn’t long before I became a dedicated FAN of TTMT. I have been so inspired by your patterns, your enthusiasm for trying new things, and the designing and crafting you do for good. You inspired me to take a beginning quilting class to renew very rusty skills. I tried paper-piecing when you drafted the Stars for Linus pattern and asked quilters to make and send blocks. It was a great feeling to complete a block – finishing something has been huge for me – and send it to you to become part of a larger project. When I read your article on the Quilting Gallery today and saw the beautiful examples, I was reminded about how you have played a major role in my recovery. I rediscovered my love for quilting, learned how to paper-piece, actually completed a block, made at least a dozen pillowcases (I also recommend your tutorial to folks) work very part time in a quilt shop, and hope to become skilled enough at paper piecing to teach a future class using your Tree Trimming pattern. All this took place because of you and your willingness to share with others! Thank you!!! Carol P.S. Your directions are concise and easy to follow. And, your examples are beautiful!
