One way to make money is.....

Good morning, DIYers! One way to make money is... wait for it, lol, is to take in alterations. You can become the go to person in your town. I've been taking in alterations for over 30 years. It is a lost art, so not many people still do it. You will get better and better the more you do it. In my little rural town of 2,800, that person is me. My husband was a football coach so we moved around alot. I became that person in each town, and was able to become established pretty quickly, because of my willingness. I have a new blog post on how to shorten straps on a prom dress. I hope it helps you be more confident. That's all I have for today; short and sweet. Have a fabulous weekend y'all! YOU CAN DO IT!!!
Philippians 4:6–7 (NIV)
Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.

Hi there Reader! Still playing with surface pattern design to make repeating patterns for fabric and wallpaper. I get my inspiration from taking photographs of my flowers, upload to Adobe Illustrator, and use the pencil tool and the pen tool to outline them, then color them up. It is intense but so rewarding. I'll share my portfolio soon. I'm working on it. In the meantime, here is an alteration tip for you... Weekly DIY Alterations on a sequined dress for Homecoming Court. I always have...
Hi there Reader, My only excitement this week is a drawing today for a quilt I made. It's a raffle for my quilt - to help pay for a trip to Washington D.C. next summer for my grandson. It will be very educational. He will be going with a group from school. Side note: I designed the fabric and everything. I have it on Spoonflower. btw - we are the Panhandle Panthers. Gotta love small town sports. Turned out to be a pretty good fundraiser. Weekly DIY I heard scrunchies are back. Here is a...
