Work!

Miles is "going to work" here. He announces this, and then gives us all kisses and hugs before he takes off to his sister's room. His job must be interesting since it requires several bags, an apron, and a hat!

Here are the bookmarks I have been working on. This is a great project for anyone who struggles with their sewing machine. If you know me, or have been reading this blog for awhile, you know I have problems with my machine. I am sure they are all user problems....Although I would never tell my machine that! Anyway, making these allowed me to build some confidence in my sewing abilities....




This weekend I made some pillow shams to go with our duvet. Nothing quite matches perfectly, but I love that. I am really proud of these. The lines may not be perfect, but they look okay!

I made the little brown pillows out of place mats! I didn't spend a dime on this project. It was all made from things we have used at one time or another!

Very clever!
You are so crafty!
Don't worry ,we have one pair of the Infinity earrings listed in our Etsy shop and if they sell before you buy them then we'll hold onto the last pair we have made now for you. We'll be doing more in the next batch during the holidays assuming they sell too.
