I'm so in the mood to sew and by the number of customers in the store since Christmas I'd say I'm certainly not alone!

I love this time of year. Reflection, resolutions, new beginnings, fresh starts. The pressures of the holidays are behind us allowing for some free time to do fun stuff.

This came today.

Isn't it fabulous?!  This is seriously the cutest flannel I've seen in years and I'm just itching to cut into it.

What to make?...

PJ's and pillowcases are obvious choices but I thought a cute tiered dress in flannel would be fun on a cold January day. Add funky striped leggings and brightly colored high tops and be prepared to stop traffic!

I immediately called my talented friend Beverly to make it. She does such fabulous work and there is just no way I could leave her out of the fun.

I cut a few pieces for me too and hope to have some time this long weekend to get reacquainted with my Bernina.

What's on your cutting table?
