I've been kind of busy.

Ok. So I got a new toy! A new sewing machine! Love it! Who knew having a new sewing machine would be so much fun! I actually think I love to sew now. It sure is nice to have the right tools for the job.
Anyway, I found some fab fabric and patterns up at Scrapbooks Etc. (http://scrapbooks-etc.com/2009/) and have been sewing away.


I made my friend Kim & I matching aprons and headbands for while we were at girls camp doing the craft. The aprons were reversible and so fast to put together. I love the scalloped edge and the big pocket. If I was going to sew this pattern again, I would make the pocket into 2, not 3 as is shown here in this photo.



Here is another example of the bottle cap charm on a very awesome necklace that my friend Kim came up with. She is so talented! We got so many compliments on them!

I just finished this cupcake apron tonite and need to clip all the strings off of it. I just love this fabric. I plan to make my niece a few bibs from the matching scraps of these. Maybe in a couple days I will have some free time to do that.

I found an idea online and I can't remember where, but when I loved the idea of a little needle book made out of felt to keep your needles in. This is my quickie version.
One more thing...
Check out this sign...quickie cut out for our ward camp.

  3. Hi Camille, I've been thinking about aprons lately, probably because I saw them in an old issue of Country Living. I've seen some really pretty ones lately on Flickr. Thanks for stopping by, have a great day, Theresa
