Beautiful Bird Dress

First Day of School Party

Super easy and fun! Every year on the first day of school, we have a root beer float party. We just set up a folding table, throw out a few quilts and pass out root beer floats in plastic cups with spoons and straws to our school friends on the front lawn. It is a very easy, cheap and fun tradition. This was our 7th year.

New Ruffle Duvet

I have been wanting a cover for our comforter for a while now, but the ones I love are always out of my (non-existent) budget. I snatched up a plain white duvet cover on sale for $19! I cut up some jersey knit sheets, ruffled them and then sewed them on the duvet cover 4.5 inches apart. Voila, a new duvet cover! Our bed is a queen, but I hate how queen size blankets never cover our mattress. So I bought a king size and cut it down just a bit so that it is the perfect size to cover the ugliness. It is so soft, comfy, wonderful and the perfect size.

Sweet Baby Girl Shower!

Haley's Wedding

These pictures don't do this justice! There was lots of candle light and the colors looked so pretty against the black and white. Haley and Michael are so sweet and in love. There family was a dream to work with.

My little princess has branched out from pink, to pink AND purple.

These fun sewing projects have kept me happy during some VERY cold Minnesota days!
