BURP CLOTHS

This is the first thing I have sewed in a LONG time. I made 4 of them and think they turned out well. I used cloth diapers and found some cute fabric and ribbon. I'm going to make matching bibs.

MORE COASTERS


I made these yesterday. They will be gifts for Christmas, I think.......

MORSE SEWING MACHINE

I found this at a local resale store the other day. It does work and well, it works great. I have to find a new belt for it because it was rotten and broke. It is a Morse 4300. LOL, I paid 25.00 for it and it's in a cabinet.

MY NEW (OLD) KENMORE

Jarrett found this machine for me when he was at Ft. Leonard Wood, MO. I had to go buy a power cord/pedal for it; and it works good!

Ok, I have had some people ask me about the desk I want from Ikea. Here is the link--- http://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/categories/series/09064/. It is the in the Expedit series. I think it would work great. The desk gives you enough work area and then look at all the the storage you would have with the bookcase! IKEA HERE I COME!!!

FATHER'S DAY CARD







This is the Father's Day card that Ben and Drew helped me make. The top picture show the inside with a card that slides out. The second picture shows inside again, a little closer shot. I let the boys write something on the white cardstock. Drew's picture is a happy face and Ben's I think is a heart. The last picture is of course the front of the card, as I said, I like the bug stickers! This is made out of a brown paper sack. I had lots of fun making it>


CARDS, CARDS, CARDS!

These are some cards I have made recently. Yes, I love the bug cards that I make. I use them for birthday cards usually. I guess they could be used for about anything. I am slowly getting better at card making. When I started, well, it was pretty bad I think....lol.
