Bella+Canvas® 3200 ~ 3/4-Sleeve Baseball Tee
A quilter looks at a raglan and sees the seam first ~ that long clean diagonal from collar to underarm, the one seam on any garment you never have to sew yourself. The 3200 runs a light 3.6 oz cotton-poly blend with contrast three-quarter sleeves, which is the exact right length for pressing: warm across the shoulders, nothing dragging near the iron. The unisex cut is easy through the body without going shapeless. It is the weekend shirt of the lineup (farmers market, sew-in at a friend's house, the porch after), sporty without a single logo, and the blend shrugs off wrinkles straight from the dryer. Wash cold, tumble low, push the sleeves up, and get back to the good part.

Somewhere around the first of October, our sewing rooms change hands.

It is the quilter's Halloween, drawn with the same rotary cutters, rulers and fabric heaps that fill your sewing room all year. -

Somewhere in every neighborhood there is a pair of pink plastic flamingos stuck in a flower bed, standing on one leg and doing absolutely nothing. We quilters respect the look. We simply think a flamingo that pretty ought to have a hobby. Stitching Pretty is our flock of flamingos who found theirs, nearly all of them with a hairdo that says Quilt Hair Don't Care, and every one with a quilting habit to match. -
Two Grand Marshals Lead the Sewing Room's Hometown Parade
Small towns do a parade right. There are lawn chairs staked out along Main Street by eight in the morning, a fire truck that toots its horn for the kids, and somewhere near the front a float wrapped in red, white and blue bunting with a quilt draped over the side. Stars, Stripes & Stitches is the float we quilters would build. It carries two American icons, both reimagined by someone who has clearly spent a lot of hours at the machine, and both wearing the same unmistakable expression: Resti
