{sPring Projects...

There's nothing that puts me in the mood for a project like being cooped up in the house. I start to go stir crazy sometime in the middle of January after all the craziness of Christmas subsides. Here are a few of my recent favorites...


We went to Utah over Thansgiving break and a trip to Utah isn't complete without going to the Quilted Bear. There are so many fun things there! One of my purchases that day was a Family Home Evening chart. There wasn't one that really matched the colors in my house, so I bought it with the idea that I would have to come up with my own version. I had it framed at Hobby Lobby (with my 40% off coupon of course) and I love it!


Over the last year and a half or so I have really fallen in love with sewing... I love the colors, the textures, the finished product, pretty much everything about it. You get a couple of good friends to come over with their machines for a "party" and it doesn't get much better. This is our version of the "Ultimate Sunday Bag". I found the pattern for the bag at a quilt show in Longmont last fall and made up a few for Christmas gifts. I finally got around to making one for myself and it is now complete with coordinating "I spy" bag, crayon roll and diaper/wipe storage.

I am obsessed with your Ultimate Sunday Bag. I need one. I definitely need one. Great framing move with the FHE chart too. Your little boy (above) is so cute. We should definitely become blogger friends.
