Spring Color Combo and Half Aprons are Awesome!


This is the first sign of spring and the summer to come. I bought enough fabric to make two with opposite fabric. Stay tuned to see how it turns out with the yellow floral fabric as the front!

Knocker Blocker For a New Mom

Just because someone is having a boy doesn't mean it all has to be blue. I choose a bold colored pattern for this new mom to be. I figured any girl needs some flowers. Matching the floral fabric with solid bold stripe turned out to be a great combo.

Old friends means you need a Stitch and Stew apron

If you think you only have enough fabric for one strap, consider making a "patch work looking strap". This was a fun way to make some leftover fabric turn into something usable.

Plastic Bag Organizer

Need something to hold all those plastic bags? I know we all try to remember our own bags when we go to the store in California, but sometimes our memory fails us. Having an easy way to store the plastic bags, can hopefully help us to reuse the bags. Simply make a tube, use a bit of elastic on the bottom and extra ribbon as a hook. If you want more directions, I'll be happy to share!

Do you own a wiener dog?


For Valentines Day I received some great fabric from my older sister, Areta. If you know anyone who owns a wiener dog or dogs in most cases this fabric is a must!
