Make a Counted Thread Flag using just 3 colors of floss, a piece of linen and basic counted thread stitches. This project is a terrific way to build your skills. It’s also a lot of fun to make! I’ve finished my project two ways – as a stuffed ornament, and framed as wall art (the piece fits a ...

This Spring project can help you use up an assortment of crafty odds and ends. Use leftover scraps of quilting fabrics and half-used bottles of acrylic craft paint, and raid your stash for buttons to be used as the flower centers. You can get as creative as you want while painting the frame and ...

Okay, sincerest apologies for flaking out on you for the last week.  I didn't really mean for that to happen, but I was in the process of getting our family completely out of TN and down to FL.  We will be here for the next 2 months before we move to Japan. BUT I did manage to whip up ...

Last year two of our dear friends got married. The bride has modern taste, but also loves the country.  She's an architect, so I knew she would appreciate something structural. I found the inspiration for this quilt on Pinterest, but it was very small (about 9"x9" I think). So I created my own ...

It's football season y'all! So today I lit a pumpkin spice candle, turned on the game, and whipped up this little t-shirt for Charlotte! Y'all, I am so in love with reverse applique. It's like regular applique but faster and easier and...reverse. I'm gonna make one for my other two ...

As much as I craft you would think I could make a decent ribbon hairbow.  But the thing is - I really stink at making ribbon hairbows.  I just can't seem to get it right - even when I follow really great tutorials.  So instead, I dug through my fabric stash and created this little bow. I love ...

**I've recently started blogging again! Come see what I've been up to: click here** Meet my newest cold weather accessory - the fat quarter infinity scarf. I really really love infinity scarves. You know why? They're easy. Easy to make, easy to wear.  What more could you ask ...

Today's post is brought to you by... the letter L! I mentioned it in my last post - our baby girl's name is going to be Lila. Lila Marian to be exact (Marian is my grandmothers name). Do you remember on the TV show Friends, when Rachel has her baby Emma, they have a large letter E hanging on ...

Yes I am unpacking and trying to set up a cute crafting/sewing corner for myself. I have some ribbon...none of it on spools. The idea to wrap it around cardboard is not mine, but I wanted to display it in a cute way so that it could sit out. I'm certainly NO expert on organization, but I think ...

We bought all the supplies from Michaels, and completed it in about 3 hrs. I made all the felt flowers, and mom wrapped the wreath. I think the secret is to have lots of felt flowers, even though they take a while to complete.  Hope you like it and feel inspired to get started on your ...

This is certainly not a new idea.  I don't claim to have made it up.  I'm just sharing my version.  I made this as a gift for a girl who just turned 12.  I've seen lots of gorgeous versions online like this one on Amazon, but I needed to make something a little bit more youthful looking - so ...

Yesterday I shared the little pillow going in Charlotte's 3 year old room when we move to Japan. So today I have the matching window treatments. A few weeks ago I shared the inspiration for this room...but you know sometimes you get to the fabric store and a fabric just calls out your name and ...
