I Made Some More Headbands
I made some headbands to match these cute dresses I made a few months ago...they turned out cute. I've had so much fun making headbands lately...I made, like, 9 headbands last week. No particular reason for making that many- just something fun to do w/all of the scrap fabric that keeps accumulating in my house.



I Made Aprons
I looked all over for the perfect apron tutorial on the internet but could NOT find what I was looking for. Don't get me wrong, there were plenty of cute aprons out there (especially the half-apron style) but I was looking for a full-apron style with clean, simple lines. My solution? I made up my own. I think they turned our great- and the best part? They're reversible! I totally rock!

Hmmm...maybe I should do my own apron tutorial...

I Made Headbands
I decided to go a little headband crazy- they are so easy to make! I found a couple of tutorials on the web but this SITE ended up being the easiest. Way cute to match w/dresses!

Sewing Room
Because our office has always been taken over by my "craft stuff" I finally decided to get it organized and decorate it how I wanted- to make it more "craft stuff" friendly. I sold the computer desk, moved stuff around, bought shelves and a sewing armoire. I painted the room an aqua color. I asked Brian what he thought of the color- I couldn't even get an intelligible response- it was like a grumble/sigh/clearing of throat noise. And then later he said "well at least I don't have to go in there very often." Oh well...I love the aqua. Anyways, the room isn't completely done but it's a start!


I'm a Nerd
So I started a blog for all of my various homemaking, sewing, crafty-ish projects...yup, I'm a nerd.
