Until I was asked to make something fun for 2 little girls and after some brainstorming this was the obvious and cutest choice!! These pillowcases are SO SOFT. I just hope these sisters love them as much as I do :) <br />

The fabric is actually 2 pockets and of course her name on there is so fun! I'm thinking we could go so many ways on this, from individual pockets to frilly things to a more manly style. How FUN!<br />

Mason does. They are cute and <i>seem </i>simple enough. Obviously they come intricate but I figured a basic on might not be too hard. My best friend just had a baby boy and what a perfect excuse to drum up some cute things for him!! Hope he likes it!<br />

With birthdays all at the end of year I decided to lump this post together so you could see everything. The 4 year old says he LOVES Spider-Man. So I went to Joann's and crossed my fingers that not only they would have something he would like but that would work in the shape of a 4--a tall order! LUCKILY, I ran smack into this fabric and made a shirt that I sure hope he loved!<br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">The twins will turn 1 in December and their mom went and picked up this cute fabric. I must give her credit as well, she stumbled on these plain bibs and brought them to me to embellish for the kids and .... I just love them!! I need to go buy up stock in these bibs. I am sure the possibilities are endless here. Thank you B! I must say, these 2 kids were beyond cute in their bibs and shirts. Happy 1st Birthday E & O!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />

This is the first item I sewed for a sale!! Sam was turning 1 back in October and a friend of ours asked me to make him this item. I love the lining on the edge of the hood so I'm thinking that's a keeper for the future and just simple letters on the back. I have other ideas too though so stay tuned!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

I don't like 'em too cheesy, but yet I like them to be cute. So since I am on this crafting kick, I knew making our own was the only option. This was made with heat transfer paper and my trusty Silhouette machine (which I love and cannot say enough things about). I designed the image and added Mason's name, love how it turned out! I will get a photo of him in it too...but taking a photo of a running around almost 18 month old is so hard!<br />

Being as its a larger camera you kind of have to wear the strap around your neck to keep it safe. Not that the "Canon" logo isn't cute...but I wanted to jazz it up and I have seen other make them on etsy and various other blogs so I thought I would give it a whirl. We'll call this 'version 1' so dont look too close because there are imperfections. I figured out that I need to just make the fabric wider when I cut it because I think I ran way too tight on the hem line. (which will probably cause the work to fray in the future). Anyhow, stay tuned because I am doing this again and I think I am going to add a pocket as a place to hold the lens cap... because for sure..I will loose it otherwise!<br />

I had been wanting to attempt flower cupcakes and surprisingly had no trouble whipping these up! Don't you want to just reach though the screen and try some?<br />

Being the ambitious sewer that I am I did some research and found a great tutorial on <a href="http://tatertotsandjello.blogspot.com/2011/06/summer-social-guest-project-surfers.html">Tatertots and Jello</a>. I think it turned out cute and hopefully Sara enjoys it! (stay tuned and we'll hopefully get a photo of her modeling the towel in action)<br />

I have so many projects going right now but lots of them are gifts so I don't want to spoil surprises :)Erinhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05600745752923848638noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1657513704181479303.post-20501016336567927572011-07-03T13:43:00.000-07:002011-07-04T06:43:16.293-07:004th of July Cake Pops<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Okay well first I have to rave about this new machine I got. It's a Babycakes Cake Pop machine! You read me right, cake-pop-machine. Genius right? I mean, for one it made it a lot easier to make the pops and for another thing, it made it easier to dip the pops. Also, I wasn't the biggest fan of the taste of the frosting on the inside, I mean I have a sweet tooth so I liked it and ate it but these are a little lighter but still a great cake pop taste.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Anywho, after collecting and being inspired by so many 4th of July desserts on Pinterest ... in the end I was just too excited to make cake pops so that's what I made! Turned out pretty cute too if you ask me :) Still working on my technique for getting the chocolate super smooth but all in all not as hard as the original pops. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />

I decided that this year for the 4th of July I would make Mason's shirt. I came across some festive fabric at Hobby Lobby and these shirts were born! Fun. Creative. Easy. Cheap!<br />

But... so expensive! I decided I could make them on my own. All you really need is a cute flower cookie cutter and some time. These were made for a bridal shower as centerpieces. Functional and they taste good, ha.<br />

Last "Black Friday", I saw a sewing machine at Target that was on sale for $50. I thought... its now or never on buying one. So, I took the plunge and <strike>trial and error</strike> taught myself to sew. My desire was to make cute shirts for my son and other kids in my life. I love those boutique clothes but I am not willing to spend $40 on a shirt that says "M" or other such simplicity. Granted I still sew really slow and try my hardest to make straight lines but I am learning and getting better everyday. Here are some fun things I have made so far!<br />

I'd say I am an intermediate baker and thought I would give royal icing a try. First up I studied every website out there about opinions on how to make the "right" royal icing. I took a lot of inspiration from <a href="http://sweetsugarbelle.blogspot.com/">The Sweet Adventures of SugarBelle</a> since her cookies are AMAZING! For these cookies I used boxed sugar cookies (gasp!) but it was because I wanted to really spend time with the icing and worry about the cookies later. However, I will say... the boxed sugar cookies turned just as de-lish! Check out my first go at the D-A-D cookies! </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
