Sewing and Writing

I begin today with my newest acquisition. Gotta love a hexie metal basket! I bought this at Target a few weeks ago (on clearance for only $6.98!) I think I'll spray paint it a fun color after we move. By the way, the apples are fake - staged for potential home buyers so they can picture themselves munching an apple at the kitchen table.

We thought we were getting an offer this week, but we

Pat Sloan – Backing Reveal!

Time for the BIG Reveal of the backing and binding choices Let me walk you through my logic, because there really ARE reasons why I do certain things... Binding Option - I TOTALLY love the blue dot, but it's relaly not the right color for the blue fabrics in the front...

Dinosaur Eggs

Happy Easter everyone.  Last nigh and this morning, Little Miss and I made Dinosaur eggs.  I thought this would be a fun Easter project, but as they need to sit over night this was the only time that work over the weekend.
This was my first time making this type of egg, I think they turned out great.  I thought I would share how we made them.
