Projects....

Wow, kinda sounds like I'm talking about where I live....I'm kidding. Although, there are times when I look outside and I wonder... But that is another post for another time!
I've been a busy little sewing bee these past few weeks. I guess
I've been feeling the spurs of Marcy and Anna coming to visit(didn't I mention them coming? If not , they are and I am beyond pumped!!!) and I didn't want fifty unfinished projects sitting around. I figured that a respectible forty five would be better, less shameful... in my head anyway. So here is what I've been up to. They are all out of order and wonky, but instead of moving them I choose to not, why you ask? Simple, I'm lazy....and this computer decided to delete a picture instead of move it when I tried and all my pictures are on Zach's computer...that is with him at work and not here... and I can't load up that picture again and I'm annoyed... That's why.
So this is the pillow that I've been working on for Aubrey...for almost two weeks! I kept sewing things on and taking them off or moving them, it was not pretty! So I settled for this, her name on bunting. I think that it turned out super cute(even if my hand stiched letters are a bit wonky.) There is a flower on the other side that you will see sometime later in this post... not sure where, like I said, wonky.

Just a random button picture, they are a bit of an obsession in this house, I want to put them on everything and Aubrey could sit and play with them all day!

This is a plastic bag holder thingy that I whipped up randomly

Crap picture, but there was bad lighting. I love it though (not the picture, the bag)!

These are two little pillows that I got at a garage sale for a buck each and recovered to match Aubrey's big pillow.

This is a close up of the other side of Aubrey's big pillow(see, buttons! I love them!) It's a flower:)

Here it is big, the flower side that is. I'm pretty happy with this side, a favorite I think:)

Aubrey was wso excited to have a pillow made just for her!


Drawing random circles and placing buttons on them.... sometimes I think that being inside her head must be pretty fun:)
More button fun(in her favorite Dora PJ's)!
Random.....
The "butt load" of fabric I got for $7 at an estate sale!
Fabric bracelets! I got the idea from "sew fantastic" blog...link on the right hand side --->
So that's what I've been up to:)
