Sewing has become one of my favorite hobbies now. I've been teaching myself watching YT videos and happy to say that I've made quite a lot of things I'm so proud of! That includes home decor like pillows and pillowcases, bowl fillers, coasters and more. But, I also love to make functional items like bowl cozies, hot pads and baskets!

Out of all the machine stitching, I also do like hand stitching and for the first time last year I completely hand stitched my sock monkeys "Bella and her brother Benny". I got inspo for them from a picture and researched how to make sock monkeys and within 2 days they were born and I love them to pieces!

Other items I've made are project bags, drawstring bags, key cords and even infinity scarves! I love all these items and though they're not "perfect", they bring me such joy!
