A sewing project,some fabric, and a couple of cards...

So, I finished my mom's bag and am pretty pleased with how it turned out.  The pattern was kind of strange and I think I would do some things differently if I make this bag again...
I got this fabric today for a quilt- I love the colors!
I also got this fabric and thought I would make my daughter a bag.  She has actually requested a skirt, so I will do that instead.  I will post pictures of the quilt and the skirt when they are done.
I almost forgot to make cards for my son for his birthday- so I did those really quick yesterday before I worked on my mom's bag.  I think they turned out great.  I used DCWV paper for the background on this one, with silver star stickers and the Jubilee cartridge for this one from his sisters.
This one is from us- I used the Wild Card Cartridge for this one.  I picked this design because he is our little monster.  I can't believe he is going to be 9 this week.  Where has time gone?

I'm thinking that I will go back and find some of my old sewing projects and post those soon.  That is where my love for creating started (and the name of my Etsy store and this blog)....  Watch for those soon.  :)

  1. I followed your link from Scrappily Ever After on facebook. Your cards are so cute, and LOVE the bag you made your mom. What pattern is that?

    Love the fabric for your next quilt project too - what is that line called?

    Have a great day!
