GUYS. I am so GOSH DARN EXCITED to announce the Mood Sewing Network to you! I don’t know how, and I don’t know why, but the good folks at Mood Fabrics picked me as one of nine sewists to kick off their new blogging network, and I couldn’t be any more stoked (seriously, when I got the email, I started screaming and jumping around the house)! You can read more about it on the Mood blog, but long story short, we receive an allowance every month to try out new fabrics and blog about our projects as we normally would. Luckily for me, nobody’s upset if I have an epic failure (well, except for me), and there’s no pressure to make anything specific.
I’m so thrilled and honored to be part of this project, and the other lady sewasaurii are seriously the coolest of the cool! You should definitely check out their blogs if you like style, inspiration, and general awesomeness! What’s particularly fun about this group is that the ladies are different ages, have different styles, and do completely different things in their real lives, so they’re all really unique and make very different garments. So fun!
Thank you, Mood!! (Ack, I’ve always wanted to say that!)
Now, RUN and add these guys to your blogroll:
Your picture’s on their website! YOUR PICTURE’S ON THEIR WEBSITE!
AAAAAHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!
This is pure brilliance on Mood’s part. I follow and am inspired by every one of you amazingly talented ladies. Thanks for sharing the list. Fair warning to Mood…you best be sure to have adequate stock of the fabrics these ladies sew with. Demand is sure to be high!

Haha, I’ll be on a version of Project Runway with no draping or design skills necessary!
But seriously– how scared would you be to stand in front of those two?! Yikes!
