Diaper Bag for Ezra

This diaper bag is for my friend Jessica and her baby Ezra.  I know she loves owls (like me).  The owl is the same pattern as my apron my Mom made here.  I enlarged it to 125%.  The bag pattern is one of my favorites for diaper bags . I used it here when Jessica had her baby girl.  Inside is a thrifted sheet which I just love. Outside is Amy Butler Passion Lilly.  I've had it for a year and just now using it. I didn't get to go to her shower yesterday.  Hope she likes it.

Antiques Collectables

 I love collecting little porcelain objects.  Some of these I got at Goodwill for a dollar and some at antique stores for under $4.00 (that's my limit). The case came from Hobby Lobby. I loved it because it has that antique feel. I display it proudly in my dining room.

Bible Cover

 Tonight I decided I needed a cover for my Bible. It was really easy to make. I'm so happy with it. I'm making one for my husband as soon as I get some camouflage fabric. I will try really hard to do a tutorial.

Baby Shower Gifts

I made this cute little monkey quilt for my new cousin to be, Logan Peach. My cousin Jenny loved it.  The pattern is from Quilts for Babies  by Lark Crafts.  Also made her 2 little bibs.

 

Here's my cousin Jenny with another beautiful quilt someone made for her. She got lots of nice things, especially homemade goodies.

More New Summer Clothes

 The dress at the top is a favorite pattern of mine Simplicity 2660. This was my Easter dress. Fabric from Joann's.

This skirt is made from a vintage tablecloth. I used Icandyhandmade's ideas on her blog. Wish I had someone to take pictures of the back. I love the way it turned out.

Wristlet Bag

 I just made this cute little bag from sew a straight line blog. She has a great tutorial with the pattern and detailed instructions.  Very easy to make. I used some vintage sheet scraps and added a little vintage lace. It's great for a cell phone and small wallet. Just the necessities.

New dress from ICandy Handmade

Ever since I saw this dress on pinterest I just had to make it. It's from ICandy Handmade. She has complete pattern and instructions, which was very easy. Cut out and sewn in about 2 hours. I'm not photogenic, but I did want to show in on. I love the way it fits. The fabric was free. I added edging from a sheet to the bottom. She made a slip with lace to wear with her outfit.

Flying Geese Quilt

 I have been working on this for a while. It's for my sister-in -law. I adore the blue and white flying geese. Seems like it took forever to quilt. It's a queen size that was already pieced, I just quilted it for her.

Bag for a friend and 2 bags for my shop

First I made this bag for a friend of mine. I love the fabric she picked out.

 The inside is lined with some upcycled fabric.

 I purchased these bags already made and added ruffles, bows, buttons and lined them both. They are for sale in my shop.

Ruby and Layla Pillows

 I had bought Simplicity pattern 1929 a few months ago. Mainly because it had Layla's name on a pillow with an owl. She loves owls  When she saw it she loved the idea of her name being on the pattern and wanted me to make one with a frog.

Ruby wanted the caterpillar on the pillow. I wasn't very happy when I opened the pattern and the alphabet wasn't in there. Oh well, I did my best and they loved them. They were surprised when they came back from vacation and saw them on their bed.

Jessica's Apron

 Ruby is modeling an apron I made for my friend Jessica. She wanted this vintage sheet with ruffles, lace and anything else I wanted to add.  Ruby wants one exactly like it only a dress.

 Jessica doesn't know it yet, but I just had to make one for her little Charleigh Rose. I think she'll love it too.

A Day With the Grandkids

 Ruby wanted to show off her pillow she designed. I sewed it up for her. She's says it's a picture of her. Layla loves her pj's and would wear them all day long. She's eating macaroni and cheese she made herself in the microwave.

 They live next door to these amazing horses. The young one loves these girls and visits them every day.

 Layla feeding her some grass. There wasn't much to be found. We had a great day.

My new necklace and new utility room

First I wanted to show off this necklace I made. I used rectangle glass, diamond glaze to the picture. The picture is my grand kids from about 5 years ago. It was an old west type picture from the Smokey Mountains.

 Next, for many years my washer and dryer had been here. I decided to move it and add my china cabinet to my dining room (where it should be). 

 The shower had been broken for years in my extra bath and I had been using it for storage.  So we decided to take out the shower, put up a new wall and add my washer and dryer. It worked out great. My sewing room is across the hall. Works for me.

Finished Dutch Girl Quilt

 I finally finished my Dutch Girl quilt. I love the way it turned out. The yellow and red's really stand out.

Another Bag added

Added another bag. This one is a little more colorful. Perfect for Easter or Spring time. I used the burlap and more vintage quilt pieces.  Also used vintage lace and buttons.

New Purse added to my shop

This weekend I made this burlap purse for my etsy shop.  I visited a friend at Sugar Ride Creations and found some awesome burlap and vintage quilt pieces.  She still has lots of it. She has an etsy shop and also sells from her business located in Spring Hill, TN. Go by and visit when your in the area.
