Cinderella Sews

Recently I have been utterly devoured by the hexie bug. Serenaded by the EPP siren. Stolen from the land of tiny doll making and pouch profusery by the slow stitchery that is the mischievous quilting fairy. 

Joining in some English paper-piecing parties this late spring has cleared my creative palette, and I'm so excited to finish this quilted mug rug tutorial with you! This is a 3-part series involving learning beginner English paper-piecing techniques. You can find part one here and part two here.

With the dawn of summer's warm temperatures and children's loosened schedules, my preoccupation has been containing the mess of teaching a 3 and 5 year old to bake, garden, light candles, and other life lessons.

The call of motherhood has torn me away from my happy sewing place, but just as the quilting siren has given me creative rest, so too the end of the school year is giving me time with my oldest before he is a full-time kindergartner this coming fall.
