Something for the little boys!

What? She finally made something? She hasn't fallen off the face of the earth? (she's such a dork!)

Love talking about myself in the third person! :)

SOOO... long time no crafting! I have been busy making little bows for my little girls hair but nothing exciting has come off the sewing machine to get excited about. Although I did hem some scout pants for a guy my husband works with-- even got some Baskin Robbins money out of it! Oh wait and I made a car seat tent for a friend and her new baby boy and I made a rice bag for a friend to help with her aches and pains.... dang didn't get pictures of those-- I have no proof!

But, I made something today.. so easy and cute!It's a car holder complete with car track! Folds up nicely to take to church, car, plane, doctors......
It's for a little friend of Sydney's who we do music class with once a week-- for his birthday!

You could always make it with a figure eight track ( I tried... going to work on that) or an oval.

I found the tutorial here

Something for the boys!!

Two Quilts

I've made two quilts in the last two months. My mom called a few months ago and said that she had her Christmas present picked out and that she even bought it. When she went to Hawaii she found this fabric and the pattern and asked if I would make it for her for Christmas.

No problem!!

Bright! But, I loved how it turned out!

For New Year's we made a trip to see my cousins family. We ALWAYS have a blast when we are together with them. I made them this picture quilt. I call it their BOY blanket. They have three boys and now they can snuggle together all the time!
Christmas makings are done...and the sewing machine is getting a rest---ha not for much longer I'm sure!
