Hiya! I’m Michelle, and I’m a serial crafter. Seriously, I’ll make anything. If I can spend $90 on craft supplies and several hours to make something I could buy for $20, I’ll do it. Create-a-holic, that’s me! The only support groups I’ve found so far are enablers. Wonderful, talented, enablers ;) Since I’ll pretty much make anything at any time, Alicia asked me to share fun stuff with you every week! 

Follow along on my crafty adventures and tag us on Instagram if you’re up to the same things. Heck, tag me on IG if you have ideas or things you’d like to see!
Sometimes I like to be a little bit ‘extra’ with my sewing, and I use a fun trick called fussy cutting. 

Fussy cutting is when you select a particularly delicious bit of a fabric print to cut out and use for a special spot in your project. 

Sometimes it gets gory- you have to cut out the middle of a piece to get the print exactly where you want it. It can be a fabric waster but the results are always worth it!

This cute coin purse I made uses fussy cutting- here’s what I had to do to the fabric to get what I wanted from the print. It hurt me a little bit on the inside but I survived!
