Pin It My favorite handmade Christmas gift from last 2011 was these dinosaur hoodies – aren’t they adorable!!! My sister gave me the idea – a friend of hers made them for her kids’ Halloween costumes, and I thought they’d be fun for all winter long. They were so easy and inexpensive to make. Here’s […]

2011 was a busy year. Here are some of my favorite projects and tutorials from last year: […]
I guest posted this project last summer on UCreate, now here it is for all of you here. Summer will be here before we know it and getting a head start with some swim towel pullovers is a great idea. Keeping tabs on more than one small child at the pool can be tough, especially […]
Part 2 of the Too Late for Christmas tutorial series is superhero masks! These were so easy I made two in every color and I used this pattern that is perfect in every way. MATERIALS washable felt Heat’N Bond 3/8″ braided elastic INSTRUCTIONS fuse 2 layers of felt together with Heat’N Bond trace mask pattern […]

Hello strangers. I know I’ve been away…life is just so busy right now with the holidays and company and precious baby Linus filling up my arms all the time. I have been on a pillow making kick when I have a few spare minutes and I finally finished the one that I’ve been looking forward […]
Pin It So the coral addition to my color scheme is OUT. I think I’m going to stick with straight blues and greens. It’s super matchy matchy, but that’s kind of my thing. So I made another sprocket pillow, only this time sans sprockets. I found this beautiful Michael Miller fabric (Sandi Henderson’s Secret Garden) […]
Pin It Sprocket Pillows…from CluckCluckSew…my new favorite thing! I wanted to introduce some coralish pinky into my blue/green color scheme, but this may be a little too much. You think?
