Hey everyone! Not really sure where to post this question but I want to make an ironing table (b/c my 12″x18″ table top board is just not cutting it and I don’t have floor space for a bigger board. I’m thinking a 47″x 25″ table. It will fit nicely in the nook of my sewing room. Anyone ever done this? I’m thinking 3/8″ plywood,…[Read more]

My husband asked me to make him some over his boots foot warmers for when he is in the deer stand and to use something called thinsulate. Annnnyyyyboodddyyyy wanna point me in the right direction? I’ve never even made a sock!

Hi Whitney, Thinsulate is a product trademarked by 3M. It is their brand of insulated fabric material which is often used to line jackets, gloves and hats to keep moisture out. You can buy insulated fabric material for sewing at your local fabric shop and make some over-boot socks in no time! Here is an example you can go off of of how to do it!

Just thought that I would jump in. Want to see how this all works. Loved the Sewing Summit. I think it may have been the very first of its kind anywhere. Congratulations to Amy and Erin for a very successful event.

Hi Ladies, The Sewing Summit (http://sewingsummit.com/) is a conference held and attended by hundreds of sewists who met each other online through sewing blogs and other sewing related sites and thought it would be fun to meet in person for a weekend of sewing and learning and meeting our online friends!
