Shamrock Quilted Table Runner

It has been nearly five years since I've seriously quilted. It is really a sad story that has been pushed down deep in hopes that I forget about it and never try to go back. 

Fall Wildlife Embroidery Hoop Art

Something about the fall season really gets me in a mood to do some hand embroidery. So this year I completed a fun Fall Wildlife Hoop. 

Me Made May 2015: Celebrating Handmade Clothing

Me Made May was started by some talented sewing blogger 's who wanted to show that they could wear something they made each day for the month of May. Well I have never participated but 2015 is a year of new projects, let me show you what I have created for my first Me Made May. 

Craftcation 2015

Craftcation 2015

This year I really wanted to experience everything that this amazing conference had to offer.  Craftcation 2014 I was in the middle of moving into a new house and I was 6 months pregnant so I literally stopped packing boxes, went to a class and then came home to continue packing. This time my husband took days off of work so that he could watch our son, which lead to him leaving to visit his family in Tennessee. Craftcation 2015 then turned into a complete "Staycation" for me and I really had a fabulous time and completely re-energized my creative thinking. 

"See My Project"- See Through Project Bag

I'd like to share with you my "See My Project" bag, because I'm constantly printing off patterns and putting aside fabrics but when it comes time to working I've misplaced all the supplies. 

Seattle Seahawks Team Quilt for Everett

I am a die hard Seattle fan, so naturally my son is going to be one too! My first football game was at the Kingdom in the early 1990's and the Seahawks were playing the Denver when John Elway was still playing. Funny, thinking back on it now, we played Denver in the Superbowl. 

So having a son, the need to celebrate the Seahawks is huge especially since my team is the World Champs the year that he was born. So naturally I had to make him his very own Seattle Seahawks Quilt. 

Happy Fall Embroidery Hoop Decor

With having Everett my stitching time has just evolved a little bit so rather than sitting at my sewing machine, I've been really working on my hand stitching skills. 

Chicken Sewing Crafts

My mom loves chickens. 

So while I was pregnant I worked on a lot of smaller projects. Two of which were "chicken" themed for my mother's kitchen. 

Easter Decor, Craftastic Saturday and Baby Update!

Gosh, it has been forever since my last post! So much has happened in what felt like one month but really turned into three. We have moved into our own home, followed by renovation then baby has been growing and will make an arrival in two months. 

Vintage Book Organizer Tutorial

Recently went antiquing and picked up this adorable "The Splendid Book for Girls" book. 

The colors on the front and back covers were so beautiful and charming it inspired me to create a little business organizer. 

Teapot Hostess Gift Bags

Before I left for the Creative Tea Time Craft Party, I thought that I would be a polite guest and bring a little gift as a thank you for hosting. 

And since it was a tea party I thought I would keep the theme for the gift. 

Thursday's Treasures #1

 I have been thinking about doing a showcase on some of the awesome treasure I find when I hit the local flea markets and thrift stores. 

And it is about time I start, hence, let this be the first edition of Thursday's Treasures. *Insert dramatic music!

My Visit to Tehachapi, California

Sometimes I get to travel around the smallest parts of California. This last month I was able to spend some time in the beautiful city of Tehachapi, California. 

Cute As A Button Valentines

It seems that when I go shopping with my crafty friends, we go nuts over jars of vintage buttons. Any seamstress loves delicious buttons. 

What a better Valentine card for my sewing and crafty friends than a beautiful jar full of Buttons. 

Before and After: Vintage Thread and Bobbin Case

Found this awesome gem at a local flea market. This old wood thread holder/case was a score at $5.00!! 

DIY Minnie Mouse Club House

You've seen these all over Pinterest. Play houses built simply from using a table and a huge piece of fabric. 

I had to build my own using a camp table and a pink flat sheet for my princess, Samantha. (Less than $10.00 to complete).

Another outfit for my little sweetheart, Samantha. This time I wanted her looking adorable but playful for this year's Turkey Day.
