I have so many ideas running around in my brain right now that I feel like I am going to overflow or drown. Send help!
p.s. Did a little thrifting this weekend. I might actually have some sun today in order to take a picture of the amazing 1930’s fabric I found. I will post it [...]

This week has been a difficult one. It seems that I have been surrounding by mistakes, some good and some bad.

So, as I have mentioned before, I am a closet scrapbooker. I have a ton of beautiful supplies, and I work really hard to keep them organized. I have a ton of magazine layouts for inspiration that I repeatedly come back to. I have lots of ideas for pages, and I have even sold a [...]

It is probably no surprise that I scour Etsy for ideas and gifts. The Pounce feature is one of my favorites. I can sit and pounce for hours longer than I would care to admit.
So, I thought that it would be fun to do another overview of all the awesome and inspirational stuff I have [...]

The good news is that I was actually able to cross something off my crafty to-do list. I made the other pillow for the man room. It looks just like this one does, so I won’t post pictures of it.
But I was a little more confident with this one, which is good because I am [...]

The other day I was over at my friend Lisa’s (who just opened a new store on Etsy and has some great patterns and fat quarters you should check out!). She was showing me more about how to use my Bernina Stitch Regulator, which was the last thing on my new machine that I was [...]
