		<description><![CDATA[Many quilters use a &#8220;design wall&#8221; to lay out their patterns. This allows a person to better see what the overall effect will be, as looking at something layed out on the floor can be tricky and distort the perspective. Here&#8217;s a really huge, nice design wall: Clicking that image will take you to this [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The new iron is working out very, very well. It&#8217;s quite heavy, it throws a lot of steam and it slides well over every fabric I&#8217;ve thrown at it.  Perhaps the best part, though, is the box it came in: It&#8217;s an iron from The Future! I want to believe the &#8220;anti-calc&#8221; thing really says [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Periodically, I see sewing blog posts regarding sewing injuries &#8211; typically, someone runs her finger under the machine needle (OW!) or stabs herself with a pin. Today, sewing drew its first blood on me, too. As I was putting together the pieces for the messenger bag (a pattern I&#8217;m not overly-amused with, btw,) I realized [...]]]></description>

Taking full advantage of JoAnn Fabrics&#8217; Labor Day Sale, I bought myself a new iron &#8211; a Rowenta Focus (also in a damnable [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[There are two of us Erins at work, and neither of us is your typical girly-girl. She just bought a sewing machine, too. This is completely awesome news and I can&#8217;t wait to see what she starts making. Off we go, shattering stereotypes with a vengeance. Also, I&#8217;d been basing my tentative sewing operations out [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I have a really hard time with straight lines and accurate measurements. In wood shop in the seventh grade, my old-fashioned bottle opener came out kinda janky. It worked, it didn&#8217;t look terrible, but the fit and finish left something to be desired. The problem hounds me to this day. I think in big pictures, [...]]]></description>
