Fabulous Finds
Need that perfect fabric to go with your pattern? If you're using BurdaStyle's free online patterns, then you could get the exact look the model is wearing - they've teamed up with Mood for online ordering! Now my credit card will never be safe.
It's sale time! Both Joann's and Hancock Fabrics are starting new sale cycles for ads - Vogue patterns are 75% off at Hancock's (so you know where I'll be) while Joann's has Simplicity patterns 5 for $5 (time to pick up those new ones that were released this week).
Looking for a dress form to give your workspace some pizazz? Pottery Barn has these adorable vintage looking floral and wire displays. If those aren't cute enough they also have matching mini pincushion dress forms to set on your table. If you're looking for the 'real thing', you'll find that Joann's has all their dress forms 40% off.
Another free pincushion tutorial - this one reminds me of Heather Bailey's version that she wrote for Better Homes & Garden's Quilts.
Speaking of free - I love this tutorial for a stuffed teapot! If I was having a girl, I would have to make a whole room of these - they are too adorable! [link via Whip Up]

You have the best links ever! I've been wanting a new pin cushion -- this Bari J one is perfect. Of course, I also saw the part in your blog about the new Simplicity patterns. Off to look now!

Stacy I couldnt comment on your next post so I am gonna do it here sorry ... They have fairly nice gliders at Kmart if you want one new and craigslist tends to have a bunch of them that are "gently used " usually at a reasonable price.
