Cool Stuff I Found on the Internet

I'm going to tell you about COOL STUFF on the internet. Like, Imagine that caps lock is a euphemism for large wooden letters that are modge-podged (real verb) with magazine cut outs from Seventeen Magazine, like we did it in 1992. That's how cool.

This is how it works: I'll write my question, you know, the one I thought right before I found COOL STUFF on the internet. Then I'll show you the ACTUAL COOL STUFF I found. This is lining up to be a series, isn't it?

Question: How can I make an outfit for Charlie with my sewing machine? I know how to make a quilt top, but I don't actually know anything about sewing. How does this thing *kicks sewing machine* work?

Answer: Dawn Anderson's YouTube Videos about sewing. She is very informative AND she looks like she's preforming in a really funny SNL skit where the actors are so used to being funny on screen that they don't break character to laugh. And and and I bet she made that shirt and probably those plants by her fireplace.

If there was a Lifetime Movie Network mini series about the life of Dawn Anderson, Dawn Anderson would be played by Kristen Schaal. Kristen Schaal is hilarious. She is eating a bird in her IMDB photo, that's how cool she is.


Anyway, Dawn Anderson, as it says up there (kind of) has been sewing FOREVER. I have been sewing for NEVER, unless you count that little pillow I made in 8th grade Home Ec. (Don't count it.)

On my quest to teach myself to sew in my thirties, Dawn Anderson has been there, right by my side, sitting next to my sewing machine, teaching me to sew.

Thanks, Dawn Anderson. YOU are COOL STUFF.
