Think Spring!!!!

Ok...the snow was good, beautiful...yeah..yeah..ok, whatever...but...I'm DONE!
So let's all think warm.

The flowers above were from my niece,Taryns, wedding this past summer. It was so much fun putting these together for her. I wondered around my parents farm with all the flowers in bloom and placed together what i liked.
My mom has beautiful flower gardens, acres of them in fact. I supplemented with some roses i had ordered but everything else was from the farm.
I'm going to let that day sit in my head...warm..flowers...yeah! :)

The booties...just cute. These make me smile everytime I make them. I've got a couple of pair i'm going to put in my new ETSY store as soon as i get some more things finished.

Have a lovely Spring...starting TOMORROW :)

HIS Majesty

I'm having one of those days.
A day where I am so grateful for who He is,for all He does, for ALL HE has created and that He loves me.
God is so good.

Ascribe to the Lord the glory due to His name;
Worship the Lord in holy array.
The voice of the Lord is upon the waters;
The God of glory thunders,
The Lord is over many waters.
The voice of the Lord is powerful,
The voice of the Lord is majestic.
Palms29:2-4

Enjoy this blessed day!

Owlet Tutorial

I just couldn't stand to send my swapbot OWL to Texas all by herself...so i whipped up this owlet needlecase.

Great for use when traveling and you still need to get in your sewing "fix".

Owlet was made out of acrylic felt.
Cut- 2 out of the large owl shape (cut this on the fold),1 owl belly,1-2 of smaller owl body shape (i cut one and then made a smaller pocket on the other side)
Do all embellishment to the front of the owl.
Attach smaller owl body to inside of owl case. Sew on dotted line-see pattern.
Attached pocket or another owl body to other side of owl case.
Bind to large owl cases together with blanket stitch.
Amaze and dazzle your friend :)
**due to my limited (but i'm learning)computer skills...if you would like a full size pattern-send me your email or fax and i'll send it to you!

Getting ready to fly!

My sweet little owl is getting ready to head off to Texas.
Oliva Hu is for an exchange from swapbot. She is made of polar fleece and a few assorted odds and ends (my favorite being the feather boa & seed beads on the face).
Hope my partner enjoys her!

Enjoy the last (hopefully) snow of the winter. It is breath takenly beautiful outside.
