IT'S FINISHED (followed by maniacal laughter)

I can’t believe it but I actually finished the Amy Butler Ultimate Arts & Crafts Tote for my International Tote Exchange III partner tonight.  The bag probably took a total of 15 or so hours with all the cutting and piecing but it was SOOO worth it.  If I had another 15 hours of free… Continue reading IT'S FINISHED (followed by maniacal laughter)

Weekend WIPs

A baby apron ala Cheeky Mama at I Have To Say…  Thanks for the inspiration, Randi.  I made it for a friend’s daughter who just turned 2 last month.  She has been really into fake food (the babe, not my friend) and playing in her new kiddie kitchen so I thought an apron would be… Continue reading Weekend WIPs
