Hi there! This is Gussy, and I looooove sewing ruffles on accessories.
My husband and I live in Minneapolis, and last Christmas I remember seeing the downtown Macy’s department store display window decorated with ruffles. Oh, how my heart skipped a beat! Ruffles are like air to me, I need them in my life. Need, need, need.
I dream of expanding my line of ruffled pretties, but I also fear that once I start adding ruffles to new categories I won’t be able to stop. Funny, but oh-so true. So for now I’ll dream through the success of others ;]
Every once in a while I save photos or projects I see that have been ruffle-ized. And — yeow! — I’d like to share with you my top 10 collection of stored favorites that inspire me ~

Sew pretty!

Back to me :]
November 2010 is an exciting time for two reasons –
- 1. Two years ago I started sewing, and
2. Six months ago I quit my day job to sew full-time.
Will you celebrate with me?
I’d like to gift one reader of The Inspired Room $75 shop credit to my shop.

hmmm….it’s hard making a decision like this! I’d either choose the damask laptop case or the girls’ tote bags. Or the Christmas stockings. Or the wristlet…

Okay, the stockings are out of this world adorable. Seriously, I want…well, one for each of my family! Love them!!
the wristlets are so cute.
I’d choose something with the green floral fabric and pink ruffle! It almost wouldn’t matter what it was because that combo makes me so happy to look at! But I’d sure use it.
