All boxed up.

I got about 30 or so items all boxed up and shipped up to Watertown, SD for the Fiddle Stix grand opening over the weekned!  Yes!  My goodies are now in a cute little shop!  How exciting huh?

I've never mailed that much stuff before, I was a little nervous about it, but I've spoken with the owner and everything arrived safe and sound!

Long Time!!

I know it's been a while, sorry guys!  I am still here!! :)  G started crawling, which is keeping me VERY busy, and has begun only giving me hour naps...leaving me little to no time to sew, blog, or create...but thats ok!  He's only little for such a short time right?!

I only have 3 ruffle bags left in the shop, and as of today they are on sale {at a BIG DISCOUNT}  They came down from $58 to $40.  I will not be making any more ruffle bags, unless I get a custom order for one.  I will be replacing these with reusable, washable market totes to carry your grocery items in {sorry none to show off just yet}....they are pretty cute and should be in the shop within the next few weeks!  These are the three ruffle bags I have left:

{This one is made with Organic cotton on the outside!}

Perfect to use for a weekend getaway this summer, or use everyday as a carry-all bag or diaper bag!

In other news...E lost his first AND second tooth, the tooth fairy came, and the dog chewed up my tooth fairy pillow I made for him.  E was pretty upset with her, and thought the tooth fairy wouldn't be able to come until he had another one!  So I am off to make a new one!

Hope your all enjoying SUMMER!!! :)

It's Finally Done!!

Just wanted to post a picture of the project I have been trying to finish up for the past week and a half!! {Thats why I have hardly been posting!} Had some troubles with the binding...boy thats alot harder than it looks!  But I finally got it done and Meaghan LOVES it!!  Thanks agian Meaghan!

Hope you all had a Happy Mother's Day!!

Quilting.

I got it finished {except for the binding}.  Which for the binding I've decided {with help from some great comments - thank you!!} to go with the orange polka dots.  I have a feeling it's going to be really really cute!!  I can't wait to show you when it's complete! :)  I love hoe it looks kinda puffy, I used a medium weight batting.  Never used that kind before, and I love how it turned out.  Almost looks stuffed!

Wordless Wednesday.

{I know it's suppossed to be "wordless"...but pretend camping is the cutest!}

Piecing it Together.

This little cutie wants to help me...

I didn't realize how hard it was to lay out and piece together a quilt with an infant who can't keep his hands off anything...I can't wait until he's crawling...I have a feeling my sewing projects might be shoved to the back burner once that starts!

This is Meaghan's quilt so far.  I have sewn 3 rows together so far.  I am stuck on what to use for the binding...any of you quilters out there got a good idea for me?  The back is going to be the Michael Miller Ta Dot in the Ocean {the turquoise one in the picture}  For the binding I was thinking about doing the blue check {Anne Kelle Remix} or the green check...not sure how that will go with the back? AND....if you know of a good, not confusing tutorial for binding/bias tape...please send it my way!! :)

Easter Wrap Up!

Hope everyone had a nice Easter.  The weather was actually warm enough to have our egg hunt outside, and let the kiddo's play outside!  We ate the most DELICIOUS breakfast: Lemon Strawberry Cream Cheese Crepe Cake:

Then I attempted to take my 3 Boy's picture together and this is how it turned out:

G and I watching the boys hunt for eggs.
