Welcome!

Hi, I'm Deb, and welcome to my blog! I'm a former school teacher turned crafter/cruiser/kitten foster parent. On any given day you'll find me doing at least one of those things. I've been putting down my thoughts (and taking plenty of pictures along the way) here on www.debsdays.com for several years now. Nowadays you can find my daughter joining me as we work on sewing and crafting projects on the blog, but what can you find here?
  • Digital Downloadable Sewing & Crafting Patterns in my Etsy shop. Yep, you can access DebsDaysDesigns patterns on your computer or device without needing to go into a store!
  • Free Sewing & Crafting Tutorials If you're looking for free sewing and craft projects - especially quick and easy ones - this is the place for you. You'll find links to directions, supply lists, templates, and clear, step-by-step how-to videos to accompany every single project.
  • Foster Kitten Resources Having been a foster parent for the smallest of kittens these last several years, I've got a pretty good grasp on the early lives of cats, bottle babies included. On Fridays I share some of those tips, hints, and plenty of cute kitten pictures.
  • The Kind Words Project To encourage myself and others to recognize the power within each and every one of us, I've been anonymously delivering kind words of support and inspiration, along with dollar bills. Putting positive and grateful thoughts out into the world has come back to me ten times over.
  • The Picture a Day Project This is where it all started, taking a picture every single day. The plan was to go for 100 days, but somehow it crazily wound up being for 1000 straight days instead. Now that's commitment. Even did it again for 100 days during the pandemic.
  • Cruising Resources. You'll find general cruise information, live trip reports, and posts relating to specific ships and destinations. With over 800 days on cruise ships, the first hand experiences I share are helpful for both new and seasoned cruisers. Every penny spent on travel comes out of my own pocket so the opinions and recommendations aren't influenced by anyone else but me, myself, and I.

Happy crafting, cruising, and catting!
