Custom-fit Sheets for the Boat

Stop by my sailing blog to see some of my recent work on the boat. I've made fitted sheets for the seaberth and the v-berth.

I'm using fabric from Alexander Henry's Good Earth collection for the seaberth.

For the v-berth I used fabric from Amy Butler's Lotus collection. The boat is a much cheerier place now. After the seaberth is done, I'll be starting on the cushions on the settee in the salon. Enjoy!

Inspiration is Everywhere - Truckers Pick Up Quilting and Knitting

Totally awesome. This Wall Street Journal article follows a growing trend among truckers who have picked up quilting, sewing, and knitting as a hobby. The downturn in the current economy has meant that instead of dropping off a load and picking up a new one right away, truckers will sometimes have to wait hours or days until they can head out again. Some men (95% of truckers are men) have started using a needle and thread (and sewing machines!) to pass the time.

The article is a fun read and it is full of great photos of their work and a video that shows a trucker and how he incorporates quilting into his routes. Very cool. Inspiration really is everywhere!
