Gathering supplies...

I have been away for over a week gathering supplies in Bangkok for my projects.  I have been meaning to document my current crazy quilting projects but have not found the time since my return.It is on a long list of things to do for this blogging journal where I want to document my sewing projects.  I haven't blogged before so there will be a bit of learning curve but lately I have found many other fellow crafters and quilters who blog their work and it's been a great source of inspiration for me as well.

Hello everyone.  This blog is a place for me to journal my sewing and stitching projects. Although I tried my hand at embroidery as a teen, I am in essence a newbie to the field. Awhile back when I bought my electric sewing machine I was inspired to recycle my old clothing into cloth bags. Since my return to my home country Bangladesh after living in the US for 16 years, I have taken up sewing by hand and machine as a pastime. I love bags in all shapes and sizes, particularly cloth hand made ones.  I have recently taken  a interest in patchwork and come across a field of stitching called crazy quilting(CQ).  I have really fallen in love with the genre if you can call it that. My form of patchwork is slightly different then traditional CQ ( I will elaborate further as my blog progresses). Currently I am enrolled in ribbon embroidery class which has led me to look for various websites for both ideas and materials as well as design. This is part of what led to me decideto blog my work as I have found so many others on the internet  who share their work and ideas as well as knowledge of the field.  I hope people visiting the blog will find it interesting and join in.
