• In-the-hoop Cookies

  The girls love to play with the kitchen that their dad made for them. Their play kitchen isn't tucked away, it is staged in the great room of their house. So, they play with it lots. Each Christmas Andrea has added felt food items to the kitchen....

• A Pretty Felt Playhouse -Part 2

  Finished! And with a little time to spare. We decided to just button down the sides instead of sewing them. It will make removing it from the table and folding it up for storage a little easier. Kate got to see it during the final fitting since she is...

• A Pretty Felt Playhouse - Part One

  OK. It is the Thursday before Christmas! A few weeks ago my daughter showed me a picture of a playhouse made from felt. It fit over a card table. Very cute and felt is easy to work with. So I planned one for the girls for Christmas. When I showed my drawings...

• Keeping It Simple - Owls Are In

  I know that I have told you about all the babies that are on their way. And their mother's are now doing the decorating. Many of our daughter's friends have seen her baby's room and when she asked them what they would like as a shower gift...

• 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.

• Keeping It Simple - Show and Tell

  I hope your holidays were full of fun with family and friends. I listened to people make their New Year's resolutions the other night. Some were new but many were the same old ones they make every year and find so difficult to keep. So, we talked...

• Keeping It Simple - Sewing for Sunday

  It has been a busy couple of weeks. Our youngest has a baby girl now overdue. But for several weeks she was put on bed rest - mostly due to extreme swelling. So the rest of the family shared taking care of the other two (five years and two years old)...

• Keeping It Simple - Going Green with Fabric Easter Baskets

  Most of you know that one of my goals in 2009 was to use up as much of my fabric stash as possible and not purchase any new fabrics. Well, I did make a dent in those stacks of cotton but I am still working on using it up. And since another goal is to...
