The Best Apps for Sewing and Blogging

I've been using my Dell Venue tablet for almost a month now and it's been fun to figure out where it fits into my digital life. Between my iphone, laptop, fire tv and now the tablet, I'm never that far away from the world wide web. I'm totally connected and honestly it doesn't feel like too much. I love being able to access information quickly, see what all of you lovelies are up to on Instagram and generally keep my life organized. I've never owned a tablet before and it's been fun to try out some of the things I normally do on my laptop or phone on the tablet. Most of all, I'm delighted that I've found a way for it to make my sewing life easier. Yes! For real. A way to make sewing easier using technology.

(She does the coolest jewelry DIY's and tutorials and if you haven't seen her blog, you should definitely check it out asap.)

I suppose even non-bloggers have that feeling as you carry out the things you need and want to do for the different parts of your life. So anyway, I hope that you get to know me a little better by the end of this post and if you have any questions for me, fire away!
