Sara Lawson

My name is Sara, and I live with my family in Chicago, Illinois. I have an amazing husband and two wonderful children. I love horses, sewing, photography, reading books, Australian Shepherds, and music. The blog was named for one of my favorite Jimmy Eat World songs that I had on a cute pink 7" record. It just sounded cool with the word 'sew' in front of it. :-)

I started blogging in September 2010 because I love sewing, and I am really inspired by the sewing community out in blogland. My blog is mostly about sewing. I am so intrigued by sewing. I love thinking about sewing pattern instructions, shopping online for fabric, and thinking about new ways to finish projects. Sewing is like solving a puzzle to me. There are always different ways to get from point A to point B, and the fabrics you use and the way you go about making things with them are what makes each sewn item out there in the world unique.

I started designing bag sewing patterns for my blog, in late 2011, and after that I just couldn't stop! I do enjoy sewing clothing for myself and quilts, but bags are my passion. You can find more of my sewing patterns and read more about my quilting adventures at www.sewsweetness.com. Hope to connect with you there! :)
