Various Blankets

Here are some blankets I made in 2014 for various occasions. 

I used this tutorial for the self-binding on all of the blankets
This is a doll blanket for one of my favorite twins! I got the idea from thecottagemama.com.

This is a doll blanket for my other favorite twin!

This is toddler size using Snuggle and Flannel fabrics...SO comfy!

These are larger than toddler, smaller than twin, made with fleece on the inside and fake fur on the outside.

This was made with fleece for the body, cotton for the letters and yard for the edging.

2014 Christmas Decorations

Merry Christmas! Here are the decoration projects done for 2014.


Snow Family is an update to 2012. We had a new addition this year!

The homemade portion of this picture is the tablecloth. Made of felt and a super easy quick fix to an empty table.

Decided we needed a new "family" wreath. It's 5 years late but I think it's worth it.

This wreath is simply a "because I can" wreath. I really like it. It's an 18 inch wreath with 3 bulb sizes.

Joy sign made with wood, ribbon and a little paint.

Reversible Wrap Top

Made these for the Twins using this tutorial. I'm happy with how they turned out!

Bicycle Basket Liner

Got a new basket for my bicycle so I can keep "stuff" with me when Hubby and I go for bike rides. I used some pictures from Google as inspiration and, of course, added pockets!

Floor Cushions

Floor cushions for the Grandbabies. I used this tutorial.

4th of July Flag Tee

Every year we get our "family" 4th of July t-shirts from Old Navy. This year, I was too late so I made one for hubby. I didn't have any fabric paint in my stash so I used regular old acrylic paint. After washing, it gave the flag a bit of a distressed look which we both liked alot. It has been washed again and it's still looking as it did in this picture.

Fashion Upcycle/Redos
