WIP Wednesday

By Elizabeth On March 14, 2012 · 3 Comments · In Crafts, Quilts, Sewing
On to precise curves starting with a block that is incredibly versatile, the drunkards path block. I first learned about this block from Jenn and Amanda at one of our sewing retreats. I wasn’t feeling super inspired when I was picking out the fabrics, so eh, they’re just ok. But it’s a big learning project [...]

Our full attention has been devoted to this for our spring break week… Coloring activities, Elmo telling us about it, books, even iPhone apps… We are trying out all options! Here’s hoping for some progress away from diapers after this week!

rainbow road table runner

By Elizabeth On March 12, 2012 · 5 Comments · In Crafts, Sewing
Curves class again. It’s keeping me busy! This is the last of the ‘improv curves’ for the class and we will be moving on to ‘precise curves’, which has me pretty nervous, because y’all know I am NOT a precision seamstress. Anyways, on to this last improv assignment – the rainbow road table runner. This [...]

WIP Wednesday

By Elizabeth On March 7, 2012 · 6 Comments · In Crafts, Sewing
Alright, I’m jumping on the WIP Wednesday train! I finished up the Christmas mini quilt I’ve been working on for my curves class. I bound it with some binding I had left over because I was feeling lazy. I think it works. Although I wish I had originally cut that binding on the bias – the dots [...]

Toddler Tuesday

By Elizabeth On March 6, 2012 · Add Comment · In Random, Toddler
I know, it’s been awhile since we’ve had Toddler Tuesday. What can I say? We’ve been busy. Jude LOVES playing with water. Water and sand play are probably two of his favorite activities, so I decided to do a little water play with food coloring. He loves combining the colors to see what they make. [...]

Christmas in March – curves sewing

By Elizabeth On March 5, 2012 · 2 Comments · In Crafts, Sewing
Still working on the projects for my curves class. This project was new for me on so many levels – I have never made a mini quilt before and I have never improv pieced anything, especially anything with curves. And this is the reason why I signed up to take a class – to get [...]

This mess might make some people anxious, but it makes me so (sew?) happy! I am actually sewing again – hooray! My machine is fixed! There are projects planned and some are even started. . . I am still working on the curves class with some very exciting projects to come from it. This is [...]

Simply Summer Sandals

By Elizabeth On February 28, 2012 · 3 Comments · In Crafts, Yarn
I was all ready to work on some sewing projects for my class and my machine stopped working. It was quite sad but it gave me a chance to finish up a crochet project that I had started that had been relegated to the back burner. My friends seem to be going through another baby boom right [...]

deliciousness numero 2

By Elizabeth On February 22, 2012 · 2 Comments · In Recipes
Hope you enjoyed seeing some of the recipes we have been eating around here yesterday! I thought 8 recipes in one post was too much, hence, recipe post numero 2. If you haven’t bought the Best New Recipe cookbook yet, you really should. I haven’t had a failed recipe from it yet. And this pasta [...]

deliciousness

By Elizabeth On February 21, 2012 · 1 Comment · In Recipes
We still eat pretty well around here, although with my increased busy-ness, I am not quite as quick to try new recipes. Thankfully pinterest keeps me inspired to try new dishes. . . Want to know what we’ve been eating most recently? This was a surprise favorite, sautéed chicken with warm bacon vinigrette was so tasty, Jason and [...]
