See the pockets!


See! Each section is a pocket!

More Totebags!


Tonight, I went to a sewing class and made this FAB totebag! I love the colors and the outside is completely made of pockets! Now I will always be able to find my keys, phone, etc! Love it!

I am going to a sewing class tonight! YAY! I am going to learn how to make a new totebag that I think will be perfect as a small diaper bag... it has six pockets around the outside! I can't wait to post a picture of it! Stay tuned....

Here is the inside of the tote...don't you just LOVE the fun fabric! :)
I LOVE LOVE LOVE this tote bag! I made it double sided with two pockets inside and one on the outside. Also, it has double interfaced lining...to make it very durable! I think this bag is perfect for a mom on the go...or for anyone who wants a durable, unique purse!

This is a flannel/minky dot playtime blanket! It is SO SOFT! I love minky fabric!

This is my first try at machine quilting on two layers of flannel with cotton batting... it turned into a super soft playtime quilt!

This is a baby burp cloth that matches the sushi bib! This is made with a soft cotton print on one side and a cloth cotton diaper on the other....the cloth diaper makes the burp cloth SUPER absorbant! :)

i have made a valiant effort to post a slide show of pictures.... alas, it didn't work. stay tuned! I will eventually figure out this process! HA! Instead, I will just post one photo at a time!

This photo is of a bib I made....I LOVE the print! :)
Here is my FAVORITE project! Isn't this little chick so CUTE! PEEP PEEP!

Happy Earth Day! (yes...a day late, but isn't every day an Earth Day???)

I found a great recipe for homemade cleaner....It works wonders on mold and bacteria!

1 Cup White Vinegar
2 tsp Borax
4 Cups HOT Water
1/4 Cup Liquid Dish Soap
(optional, add a few drops of essential oil)

Place in a re-usable spray bottle and clean away!

Crafting update:
I have been so so so busy making different projects for the growing up green summer sales! I will post pictures tonight! My favorite thing so far is the cute little birds! They are so soft and cuddle-rific!
