Christmas is not to far away and I have been busy making gifts for family and friends. Last night my friend Rebecca and I got together at her house for a night of sewing, it was lots of fun! We worked and talked into the weeeee hours of the morning (2'ish) when I decided it was time to head for home and a warm bed. The best part of having a good friend is the unstructured moments when you get to chat and talk about life and also those not so important things such as the spoofs on "Twilight" and "New Moon". We are both fans of the Twilight series and she showed me some hilarious videos that seemed even funnier at 2 am.
So, I have been hard at work getting Christmas presents made but I can't post anything until after Christmas or else you might know what you are getting...until then, here are some other projects I have done over the past year that haven't made it to my blog yet.
My Past Projects
I made these pillow covers to hide our brown and green well worn pillows. I got the fabric from IKEA, however, I picked out the fabric this summer and I 'm not sure the bright green matches my decor or the season. But hey, they work. Now when someone takes a nap on them and slobbers I just slip off the cover and toss it in the washer instead of trying to stuff the pillows in my washing machine and then having to listen to it as it thump, thump, thumps off balance. Pillow covers are a pretty smart ide if you ask me, especially since I have heavy sleepers who are bound to drool. I finished these just last month.

This is a baby quilt I put together before Lauren was born, over a year ago. I found a supper cute pattern and down sized it and changed the colors to fit a baby girl.
A little Valentines card from last year.
And of course, the two best creations I have ever made!
My Sweet Girls.
