Welcome to my sewing blog!

So glad to have you here. 😀

I’m Javeriya, author of Sew Some Stuff.

Why do I have this blog? For you! To inspire you to sew beautiful bags and other small sewing projects. 😀

I also share beginner sewing tutorials for simple and fun sewing projects, tips and links to different resources to help you get better at sewing. If this sounds like something you love, JOIN IN THE FUN!

I’m a 20-something ordinary Muslim girl. (Hey! Want to know more about Muslims? Feel free to tweet me @justjaveriya. I’ll answer all your questions. Pinky promise!)

I’m a complete introvert, very shy and quiet.

Doing creative work makes me SO HAPPY, as well as horses.

I’m a niqabi (Muslim women who cover their face, and no, it was not forced on me and no, I’m not oppressed :P)  by choice.

I had a dream of becoming an equestrian Olympian someday. LOL.

I’m a huge fan of elegant as well as rocker chic style.

I LOVE DISNEY!

I LOVE heels.

I LOVE to travel.

My favorite reading genre is anything historical. I really enjoy Phillipa Gregory’s books and watched ALL the seasons of The Tudors RIGHT before my college finals 😀 (I was just SO INTO IT! P.S. Anne Boelyn and Jane Seymour are my two favs.)

Once upon a time I was a HUGE fan of Twilight but not anymore. Guess I “outgrew” it.

I never read Harry Potter. Shocker!

The turning point of my life was when I got my first job in 2009.

And, that’s pretty much what I could think of to write here.

Oh, I would also like to use this opportunity to erase the common misconceptions people have about Islam and Muslims, thanks to the awesome media. 🙁

In the Islamic society, like any other society there are good and bad people, what media shows us today are only the bad people, sadly. There’s a lot to be discussed on this topic, but here’s a very comprehensive short video that explains the details about the misconceptions. I encourage you to watch so that you can understand me better and we can be BESTIES! 😀
