Sewing Post

Hello There ;-)

I wanted to share what I have been up to ;-) and it's not making anything with my Cricut..lol I have been sewing (see I'm still learning how to sew) and I have been taking a little at a time updating our daughters bathroom (she is in to zebra stuff) so I found some zebra pattern at Wal-Mart and I made her some new window covers for her bathroom & gotten some new flowers as well now all I need to do is get her some new rug's and shower cover and some new picture's ;-)

Why we was out shopping last weekend I found this white stand at Big Lots for $29.99 so I had to have it and then I found all the baskets at Wal-Mart the pink one's was $2.00 each and the white one's was $5.00 each and they told my ink pads, punch's, and clear CD cases but they will be removed soon and will hold my photo printer stuff and my clear stamps.

Then I gotten me some Hello Kitty pattern to recover my chair I have sitting in my craft-room I'm a BIG fan of Hello Kitty (I know your thinking that is for little kid's..lol) but she is to cute ;-) I recover my desk top as well and made me some new window cover to go with the other stuff of Hello Kitty, So I been sewing.

I hope you enjoy reading what I have been doing :-)

Until next time take care!

Dust Cover to Clip Board

Hello There ;-)

I have been looking for awhile now how to make a dust cover for my Sizzix Texture Boutique and I just haven't found anything how to make them so I put my mind to working trying to find out how and I learn how to do it and it's so easy to do and I'm new at sewing :-) so it may not be the best but hey less it does the job good..lol

I even sewed on a button and a piece of ribbon to make it like a little closer at the top and after I got to look at it I sewed the ribbon and button on the wrong side oh well it sill works for what I want it for..lol to me it looks like a little shirt..lol but it's still cute!

Here is a picture of my Sizzix cover on my Sizzix

And I even made myself a bigger pin holder so when I'm sewing I can just pull my pin's out and place them in this pin holder just something I made

Here is a picture of it

I had this photo frame just laying around and I didn't like the color so I painted it black and then I still didn't know what I wanted to do with it so it came to mind that I was going to make me a clip board where I can clip thing's on it and so I gotten some of my scrapbook paper our and ribbon and this is what I came up with now all I have to do is get me some small clothes pins to paint and then I will be set..lol

Here is a picture of the frame

I have few other thing's I started working on when I get done with them I will share them as well.

Until next time take care!

Dog Bed Pillow!

Hello There ;-)

Wow 2nd post in one day ;-) I got to love myself for that..lol just kidding..lol

I'm SO glad my 4-legged kid's (I mean my dog's) they don't care what there bed cover's or pillow's look like..lol I made them a new bed pillow since there is getting old yes I have 4-dog's 1-big dog and 2-small dog's so it was time for a new pillow but I just can't see paying high price for a dog pillow that I can make myself (or try to make it) but I did make to big pillow's since our 2-small dog's share a cage they didn't need 2 in there cage so one big one worked. So I wanted to share what I tryed to sew..lol

The big pillow alone (Just pic of one pillow)



One of my small dog's trying out her new pillow I think she likes it..lol



Until then take care!

And the best part of it all so far has cost me (FREE)until I go and buy the paint but that will only be like $2.00 so not bad at all.

Cricut Cover & Matching Bag

Hello There =)

I have been looking around for a dust cover for my Cricut well I went to eBay and looked for one and they are going around $20.00 plus shipping well to me I think that is little to high. So I got to doing some looking on the Internet and found a *FREE* did I say *FREE* pattern how to sew one so I pulled out all my sewing stuff and printed up the *FREE* pattern and got to sewing & I even made myself a matching cord bag (I don't leave my Cricut hooked up)and I think it came out pretty cute if I have to say so myself & it was very easy to make.

I have been working trying to get my craft/scrap room in order and I'm going with a pink/green and I think this will match my room just great.

So I will share the link where I found the *FREE* pattern & share my picture's as well.
