Hi Lori, I stumbled across your blog from another site and love it! I love your recent project for your daughter (the white fitted jacket) and all the purses I've been seeing in your archives. I'm in grad school now and have decided to give sewing a try as a creative and relaxation outlet from my bookwork. Also, it's to expand my wardrobe, but that's not til much later, I think. I just got my sewing machine back from a tune-up session and am ready to try some super simple things (but your ideas are exciting to think about when I get some experience under my belt).
I also have a question, too- I read your blog on Sept 9, 2007 and there were photos from a magazine, Fall Fusion. Did you ever tackle the jacket on the left of the third picture down? It's gray and there's probably a pattern to it...I adore it.:)
Hi Lori, I am doing a wardrobe planning segment on my blog and was wondering if i can link to this post of yours?
I would like to do it today if you don't mind as I will be starting my 30 styles for 30 days hair edition on the 15th or 16th depending how the weekend turns out :)
Thanks I thought this was a wonderful post, love the blog I followed links here from another blog. I have a blog about style and sewing and some of my other odds thoughts, just getting started if you want to link me too :)
Hi Lori, I am new to your site but, have wanted to do a sew-along for some time now. I haven't sewn in years and I am TOTALLY using you to get myself moving. It looks like wonderful fun and I really appreciate all the work you are doing.
I have a question....how long will you take for each project? I may be too late for the first one so, I need to prep for the next.
Thanks so much for your help. I have finally finished my maternity coat! Lots and lots of hand-sewing. I added the sleeve head like you recommended. Your photos were very valuable and seeing the coat completed gave me the encouragement I needed to finish.
Hi Lori, Thank you for your most helpful tutorial. Your bags are gorgeous! I have a question for you about the Peltex, fusible interfacing, and exterior fabric. Your tutorial indicates that you fuse the interfacing to the exterior fabric... while the pattern instructions somehow have you fusing the interfacing to both the Peltex and the fabric... almost as though the interfacing has adhesive on two sides? I'm so confused... :( So, I followed your instructions which I understood. However, when I finished the large pocket panel, it was almost as though it had an air pocket inside it; the finished piece is not flat. Did I miss a required fusing somewhere? Thank you for your help -- I love everything you do, both here on your blog and on the Mood Sewing Network. Thanks, Christina
I always use quilting cotton, so I use 2 layers of the SF-101 interfacing, to make the outside of the bag stiffer. I think they have you fuse to the Peltex so just in case the fusing to the outer fabric isn't the best, you won't have ripples on the outside of the bag. Does that make sense?
Could your outside pocket be too big for the bag? Sometimes with all that fusing and layering the Peltex, it shrinks the outside piece a bit. Can you lay the outside pocket flat and then see if you need to trim it a bit.
I hope that helps and makes sense. Let me know if you need more information.
Also, thanks so much for the compliments on my sewing and my posts on MSN, I really appreciate it.
I also came upon your site quite by accident. Your blog is inspiring and has so much to offer. I am beginning to try my hand at sewing once again. Sizing is always my challenge....but "sewing hope" springs eternal!
Hi Lori, I'm a longtime follower and I've purchased many fabrics and patterns on your recommendations.. The last 2 days, when I click on a link in your blog posts, my laptop brings up two windows. One window is the correct fabric or pattern website. The second window is infnz dot com with a list of related searches. I don't know if my laptop has a virus or if your website has been hacked. I am not having this issue with other websites. I wanted to alert you of a potential issue. Eileen Eileen

I was a victim and I am ashamed of how I lost 407,000 AUD to these people pretending to be forex and binary traders. I almost lost everything to my family until I came across Hacker Steve online, an expert in crypto recovering from these scammers. He was able to recover my money in six hours.

BITCOIN RECOVERY TESTIMONY: How I Got My Funds Back After a Major Crypto Theft.
Earlier this year, I went through one of the most devastating experiences of my life— My digital Asset wallet was compromised in what cybersecurity experts refer to as a “Dark Skippy” attack. It was a highly advanced and stealthy breach that completely wiped out my crypto portfolio in total of $1,425,000.
The sense of loss and helplessness was overwhelming. I had no idea how it happened so quickly and worse.
I didn’t know if I’d ever see that money again. I spent weeks looking for solutions— contacting platforms, forums, and supposed "recovery agents," most of whom turned out to be scams themselves.
Then, I came across a company called TROJANHACK Cyber Security Company, and everything changed.
They were professional, highly knowledgeable, and transparent from the very start. Using the latest in advanced hacking software and forensic tools.
they were able to track the stolen funds across several wallets and trace the movement of my crypto with impressive accuracy.
Their team not only located the stolen assets but also successfully recovered every last bit of it.
More than just recovering my funds, they went a step further by helping me secure everything through advanced wallet protection strategies. They even provided me with basic cybersecurity training, so I now know how to better protect myself from future attacks.
Thanks to TROJANHACK, what started out as a financial disaster turned into a full recovery. I’m beyond grateful, and the least I can do is recommend them to anyone out there going through the same nightmare.
If you’ve lost crypto due to hacking or scams, don’t lose hope. I’ve been there and I got it all back. You can reach them via email:
