• What's a Tortilla Warmer?

  Sometime ago, I saw an advertisement for tortilla warmers and loved the idea. They looked fun and useful but the cost was $8.00 - $12.00 each, depending on the size, plus shipping. "What a great way to use up scraps!" I thought. So, I tore out...

• Keeping It Simple - Quick Wristlet Just In Time for Spring

  Wristlets are great if you have lots of other stuff to haul around (like kids and diaper bags and laptops...) and don't want the extra weight of a purse. But after a hard winter the ones we have been using look pretty bad so I decided to surprise...

• Keeping It Simple - Heart Flowers, Burpies and Nursing Covers

  Yes, I know - I do lots of baby stuff. I can't help it - my girls and all their friends are at that age and baby things are part of our everyday conversations. And baby items are fun to make.
