Congratulations to the Philadelphia Eagles for winning the 2018 Superbowl!

Continuing on our sewing organization kick, here is another video that we found useful. Our tip is to make time for organizing. We had to literally force ourselves to straighten up and organize one shelf on a book case. But once it was done, it looks so nice and feels so refreshing. Watch the video, and tell us how you organize your sewing room. 
"All black everything" as Jay-Z would say. That was the look displayed on the red carpet, in honor of the "Times Up" movement. Congratulations to the cast of the TV show Big Little Lies. Nicole Kidman won a Best Actress award, with her co-star Laura Dern winning for Best Supporting Actress.
Since the Golden Globes took place on January 7th, we thought it only befitting to take a look at some of the fashion. In particular, we're focusing on the past and present Golden Globe Ambassadors, or as they were previously titled, Miss Golden Globe. Didn't know there was such a thing? Neither did we until the title change created an interesting story line that was attached to this year's nomination announcements. According to the Golden Globes website, only the children of well known actors are selected for the role to "assist" during the event.
If you're like us, keeping your sewing room neat and tidy can be a bit of a challenge. It's frustrating when you can't find things while working on a project because things are out of place. So for this week's Video Of The Week, we've been researching different tips, tricks, and tutorials on sewing room organization. We came across this YouTube video that you might enjoy if you're looking for organization ideas. We put one of the methods to use, using scrap fabric and glue to cover an ugly cardboard box for use as a storage container. What we love about this tip is that it's quite an inexpensive way to organize while adding to the decor of your sewing room! Aside from the video below, here is a list of other links on sewing room organization you may find useful: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GorBAza_cws https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AtMfrSUxVYQ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kA3qSRn8buM http://bit.ly/1TDafCW  Following up on our post on The Pink Ribbon Place, I recently went to a workshop that took place there titled "Look Good Feel Better." If you missed that post, be sure to go back and check it out. They provide lots of resources for women with breast cancer.
Today we found a video that displays a collection of sewing supply/sewing room organization ideas. Let's face it, one of the hardest things to do when working on a project is to keep your sewing tools, supplies, and notions neat and tidy. After watching this video, we came away with lots of inspiration and motivation to organize our sewing room. We hope you'll do the same and be motivated enough to actually get up and do something about it. If so, we'd love to hear your plans in the comments. Or if you have any tips to share we hope you'll share those in the comment section too!  Tis the season to be jolly. But what do you do if you don't have the money to buy expensive gifts and decorations to get your home ready for Christmas? We're creating a crochet Angel Tree Topper! The only materials needed are yarn, crochet hook, poly-fill, and an optional electric candle or Christmas light. Not only that, but it shouldn't take too much time to make either, so you're saving time, AND money.
 Progress is going slowly but surely on our Raggedy Ann doll. Today's adventure with Raggedy Ann has been quite frustrating. What happened you ask? Well, long story short, we didn't read the instructions on the pattern. So...when cutting the fabric for the dress bodice, we didn't cut it on the fold. So if you're making this pattern, be sure to cut the dress pattern on the fold!
