What I'm working on this month
Hi, welcome back to my site. It's a busy month during February and March for me.  I am working on a Christening gown that originated with a wedding gown. It's beautiful satin and lace.  I'm also doing a First Communion dress for my granddaughter. The dress has smocking on the bodice with very light iridescent pink beads. The smocking is finished and I'm adding the beads now.  A quilt for the 4th of July picnic in New Baltimore, PA is also on the table. I was asked to make and donate it for the church. It's the same church where we were married.  I also have a flannel quilt just about finished. It will be for display at the Fabric Chest. After hanging for a while it will go to our log home in PA.  And I have four project to finish up after a weekend workshop with Judith Adams from Australia.  I'm also working on the Jenny Haskins Heritage Quilt. I've had requests to do this as a block of the month class. So much to do that I better get busy. I'll post pictures as the projects get completed.

Happy Sewing - Sandy

Welcome to Stitching and Fringes!
I have been in business since 2004, and I pride myself on providing customers with the best-quality products and personal service. I would be delighted to have you in one of my sewing classes. Please check the calender for a listing of my classes.  You can also order from me using the on-line contacts page or contacting me by phone.  I offer beautiful Christening gowns and other heirloom items for purchase. 
I have been sewing since I was 9 years old. I started by sewing a simple skirt in our local 4-H club. After many years in 4-H I started sewing for my home, then my children and now my grandchildren.  When my first grandson came along I just had to have an embroidery machine. When my granddaughter was born I started sewing heirloom garments, starting with her Christening gown. I love to do heirloom sewing which includes Christening gowns, heirlooms for babies, linens and even wedding accessories. I have attended three licensings classes with Martha Pullen in the heirloom curriculum as well as the serger curriculum.  I recently attended the first Jenny Haskins Academy of Certified Tutors and I am now certified to teach as a Jenny Haskins tutor.  Most of my classes are held at the Fabric Chest in Glen Burnie, MD. I teach the Bernina Artista Software, advanced embroidery, heirloom and quilting classes. 

I take an enormous pride in creating my products, and hope that you'll find something in my catalog that you like. I also can create custom orders; call or email and let me know what you want.
I look forward to doing business with you.

I am a proud member of the following organizations:
Smocking Arts Guild of America
American Sewing Guild
