As promised!  When I made the Spring Tablecloth last week, several of you commented that you have round tables - well here you go!  Actually, making a round tablecloth is not that much harder than making a rectangular one.  There is really only 1 extra Step. So if you're ready, here's how it's ...

...so I'm a little (actually a lot) embarrassed to show the before picture to you - here I am writing a blog about homemaking, and I have a huge stash of fabric just waiting to be sewn, and this is the sad sad condition my kitchen table finds itself. (someone please tell me their kitchen table ...

This is a fast project (hour or less) with impressive results! Inspired by this shirt from Baby Gap: Here's what you will need: 1 solid t-shirt or turtleneck (I got mine at Wal-mart for $2.00) Scrap pink fabric red thread (sulky preferred because it adds a little bit of shine) ...

I've been wanting to make a tunic for a while. I browsed around online at Free People and found this for inspiration. It's $298.00 So on Friday I went to the fabric store and spent $ 17.00 on a yard of Anna Maria Horner's gorgeous voile - the perfect thing to make a flowy tunic (or to ...

If I didn't tell you, I am trying to complete our master bedroom look.  I bought several accessories with my Christmas spending money, and now I am making a few pillows for the bed. Anthro is selling like 10 bolsters right now, so I thought it would be nice to make one and show you how.  ...

Okay my beginner sewers, or those of you who just don't sew often, this is a GREAT project for you. You can make one for yourself or this would make an excellent Holiday gift. My good friend Laura (the photographer) was visiting this weekend and we made this scarf together.  This ...

I told you that I was going to redecorate Charlotte's room woodland style - in light of her recent party. Here is my first step: this easy snuggle-size quilt. Even if you have never quilted before - this project is simple and quick to make (it took me about two days). You could ...

Charlotte's bathroom is also the Guest bathroom. Therefore, I didn't want to decorate it all rubber ducky or something. I want it to be a space adults can relax in too. I created this shower curtain - originally two panels (bought at Ross for $10.00). Then I added the strip of fabric to the ...

I had mentioned before, when we were staying with that lovely family from church, that I would share with you how to make this adorable little ottoman (or stepping-stool however you want to use it).  You are not going to believe this - it is made out of four 46oz juice cans. It is ...

This week we have made coordinating aprons for Charlotte, my mother-in-law, and myself. Donning our new aprons we set out to make my mother-in-law's favorite cookies- Oatmeal Craisin. So yummy (...and kind of healthy...they have oatmeal in them....does that count?). This is a great cookie ...
