Dear Mom, It’s been four years now since we lost you. I want to say it’s easier four years later, but it’s not. There are still times when something happens and I think to myself “gotta call Mom and tell her about that.” it only takes a moment to realize that’s impossible. The other...
Upcycled: A fold-up bag.
I have this book called “A Perfect Handmade Bag”. This is my first time making anything out of the book… And I didn’t follow the directions. I looked at the photo, checked the rectangle bag measurements and went from there. I used a sheer curtain my neighbor had given me a few days before,...
Car visor CD holder
I wish I could write a post to go with this but there’s not much to say about it. It’s pretty self-explanatory I think. P.S. Many of my followers get updates via Google FriendConnect. Because I blog on WordPress, those of you subscribed via FriendConnect will soon be missing updates from my blog. I...
Operation Cookie Drop: donation boot
I’m a Girl Scout leader, in case you didn’t know, and it’s cookie season. I made this donation boot for our cookie booth! Admittedly, it was not my idea. One of my parent’s said her daughter’s old troop did it one year, but all she could remember was that they had a boot for...
Enter to Win: Clutch Purse
I made this clutch style purse using Amy Butler’s style stitches. I love the pattern and love the purse, I even love the fabric, but it’s really too small for me! So I’ve decided to give it away to one of my blog readers. First, this giveaway will run from today {Feb. 8} thru...
In progress: Waving Flag
Saw this in one of my books: And I had just enough scraps to get this far: All I have left to do is buy the lining and the backing fabric… And some red bias tape. It came out looking a lot better than I was expecting.
Fabric checkers board!
I made this fabric checkers board out of scrap pieces of green fabrics I had lying around. Same color green, two different patterns. The board was so small I couldn’t sew circle pieces, they just weren’t working. So here’s what I used: cardboard from a priority mail shipping box, fabric, Modge Podge, acrylic sealer,...
Mini update re: child custody.
There isn’t much new actually but I thought I’d post a quick mini update. Got a notice in the mail this week from the judge dismissing my petition. I knew this would happen, because remember they denied my request to waive the filing fee. I didn’t send the filing fee so they did not...
Fabric trash bin for the car.
I am proud to say I designed this little trash bin for my car because I was sick of the plastic bags I was using, they just aren’t pretty. My center console has this little compartment and I have no idea what they are for. They are 4″ long, 1″ wide and 1 1/2″...
