Little Girl Apron and Potholder
Went to visit my sister last month and she created a pattern for this adorable child’s apron! We found the cutest fabric at Craft Warehouse to make it and man did it turn out cute….. So I decided to make a little hot pad to match. I entered it in the Prudent Baby pot holder contest in hopes of winning a brand new sewing machine!! They featured my pot holder on their site! Love it!! And as soon as the apron was complete my little girl just had to put it on and bake something! So we made some sugar cookies to celebrate Valentine’s Day coming up!

Baby Snuggler and Tinkerbell Costume in Progress..
Baby Snuggler… Saw this pattern and just had to make one for the one on the way! Just need to add the velcro. Tinkerbell Costume… My daughter Sam wants a Tinkerbell party for her 5th birthday in Nov. Our Baby is due in Oct. So I am getting a head start, and hoping she will want to wear her tinkerbell (pink) costume for Halloween as well. It is a work in progress and the pattern was very difficult to figure out but putting it together hasn’t been too bad. (by the way this is a Simplicity pattern you can find at JoAnns) To view more please visit my blog!

Boy Shoes and a Tie Appliqued Onesie
Another Pair of Baby Boy Shoes! Here is what you will need to do an applique. Fusible Web (JoAnn’s has it in the pack-pictured below). Some cute fabric and a onesie. In the middle you will see the tie cut out of the fusible web. You attach it to the fabric and the onesie and then Iron (it fuses on both sides, its like double sided interfacing). Then stitch around the edge. Turned out so cute!! And it is so fast and easy. To view more please visit my blog!

Large Fabric Basket!!
I made this adorable fabric basket/bag for my sister-in-law for christmas. Next to a wipie box so you can see the size, its big! I saw this small basket tutorial online and thought it was great. I wanted a basket much bigger so I made my own pattern to create this large bag. My sister-in-law is going to use it as a church bag because she always has so much stuff to take but didn’t have a bag big enough to carry it all. Maybe I will try to make a tutorial for this basket:) Anyone interested? To view more please visit my blog!

Photo Fridge Magnets
**This post has been updated with more details and bigger pictures, you can see it HERE. My mom and I made these when she came to visit. We used glass rocks (1″) that are flat on one side, cut pictures of each of her grandchildren, and glued them on. Then we added a magnet to the back. I made them for my mother-in-law as well and she loved them!! They make a great gift for loved ones. On the fridge. Supplies…
