Sew For Broke: 20 great, free patterns from STC Craft

Blame Hal Incandenza or Annie Hall?
Scored a great set of vintage tennis rackets on Craigslist. The kids and I have been in the backyard, thwacking balls around and having a very good time.

Meep! It’s Supafab!

Oh hey you guys, it's me, Supa. Things I enjoy: talking on my bananaphone, being a nerd, writing, sewing, writing about sewing, giving my husband high-fives, playing Nintendo with my kids, playing with technological gadgetry, knitting, and reading decorating books.
