Must be the end of the school year!
I was outside. Weeding, watering, planting... here and at school. Things are looking good in our garden at home. I got antsy and moved a bunch of stuff but nothing has died yet so that's good. W...
I meant to post these yesterday but it was raining and I could do nothing, not even repost pins. I don't know when I became so weather sensitive. Today is sunny and I've made smoothies, pic...
This is a crazy busy school week for me and maybe that's why I've been thinking so much about Summer. When I get some sewing time I'm going to make the 3D Kit, Chloe and Louise their S...
One of the things I picked up at Ikea as a possible mother's day project was this album with a tree embossed on cover. I thought it was a photo album, and I guess it is, but it's just plain...
For my last kcwc project I went big and made a ..... yep, smocked dress. Okay, so I didn't tackle anything challenging this year. But I did make a top, a skirt, 3 pairs of shortie shorts and a d...
Still chugging along with kcwc! Have you seen all the cute stuff in the flickr pool? I have one more dress planned. Just need to run out for elastic thread. Then I think that'll do it for me. I ...
Here are the little shorts I made for Phoebe. They're to go under skirts. I don't know what to call them. Do they have a name? I've been calling them shortie shorts. Phoebe was very pl...
Are you guys sewing for the kiddos this week? It's Meg's Spring 2012 KCWC and I'm trying to keep up! I've got a nutto week so I'm trying to sew as much as I can today and the...
I signed up for a Mother's Day promotion with Martha Stewart's Crafts paint line by Plaid. I am terrible at Mother's Day but love a craft challenge so I thought this would be the perfe...
I needed a body for those vintage googly eyes so I got out the Katie Kitty pattern from my book and some hand dyed wool that I've been saving for ages and made up Mr. Kurt Kitty. I passed the vi...
I've been playing with paint the last few days. Or rather, paint's been playing with me. Not exactly my natural medium, but I'll show & tell results next week. Now that I'm do...

cute tiny vase little metal trays. I can never pass these up. wood bowls with ball feet I'm excited it's sale season again. The thrifts are terrible around here so it's the only trea...
I found a few trinkets to show and tell but no sun today to snap pics so tomorrow hopefully. In the meanwhile, we're chuckling quite a bit at this. The sloth guilted me into blogging today. We...
She might be the first in a new set of Stitchettes. Not sure yet, letting her sink in.
I'm connecting some dots. Not sure what it'll be, either a sundress for Phoebe or kitchen curtains. Also I'm jumping fully on the Instagram bandwagon. You can follow along if you like....
Every year I get a little obsessed with the special issue sixlets in Spring colors. I eat way too many of them because I always have them out because they're just so dang cheerful. So I made it ...
I had an hour or so sewing time yesterday so I wanted to make up something super quick & easy for Phoebe to get back in the swing of sewing for her. I had these two fabrics set aside, olive green...
I'll be back Monday with some sewing. Maybe in the meantime I'll post some of the one gazillion photos I've taken of redbud trees. Happy Spring!
Spring break is coming and I'm hoping to do some sewing for Phoebe. The Spring Kids Clothes Week Challenge is coming up and I'm feeling it. I'm collecting inspiration on my Phoebe b...
I'm trying to catch up! Spent the weekend getting mosquito bites, running through the sprinkler and sitting in front of the bonfire. Also doing a quick clean up of the yard so the new flowers bu...
Thanks everyone for the school garden info! I'm looking through it all. I'm realizing that so much of it just doesn't apply to us, first anything in California. We have such a short se...
