Once Upon a Thread, Chapter 5!

Start your sewing machines, wind your bobbins, and thread those needles!!
Are you ready?!  I thought it was high time for another Once Upon a Thread. And I've got some fun things planned that I can't wait to share with you, including a highly sought after tutorial, giveaways, and more.  (There's always a "more", right?)  We will begin September 29th, because it's still National Sewing Month (did ya know?) and I've yet to fully celebrate it.
Oh, The Places You'll Go, Astrid
What is Once Upon a Thread?  Anything to do with a needle and thread that is inspired by books.  Mostly children's books, but any books will do.  I want you to sew along, too.  I want your mind to roam free, stretch yourself, try something new, perfect a technique, and have fun, of course!
Can you believe this will be Chapter 5?  I still have so many books I want to do.  I just might go on sewing even after my children are grown and gone. ;)
Want more details?  You can read about the first season of OUT here, but we will just be doing it for one week.  I will have a link party set up so you can post what you've created, too, and a chance to be featured here! Lower those presser feet and begin stitching!!

    Woohoo!! I love this series! So much.
    The hard part is narrowing down the books to sew from. Too many to choose from!
