Christmas 2010 projects

Fun Christmas Lights outside!
My Daddy's blanket i made, he appreciated the cockroaches since we have them here in TX!
Jared and Mark both love the Bronco's so sorry you both get the same present but it's sweet!
I made this table runner for my father in law, I think it turned out ! Jared helped pick out the tassles and fabric, I couldn't design without him!

Nikelle's Apron!

So I finally got Nikelle's apron done! I had some more material to make her hot pads, I just love em! It was hard to try making this without a real pattern so i just altered two other patterns to come up with this. I want one for me now!

New Makings

I really needed to update my duvet cover so I went and made this reversable duvet cover and accent pillow with flowers! I think it turned out pretty good, it'll be cuter once I can get two more pillows with brown shams to go with.
I'm really wanting to make this apron for my sister Nikelle's wedding, isn't it cute? We'll see if I can get it to turn out that way... I'll have to post the final project for sure.
Since Bella has been getting ticks every time we go for a walk and since they are so hard to find in her fur we decided to give her a trim... Oops, it was a little shorter than intended. I just hope it grows fast! lol
Now she looks like a cat / rat but still cute!!!

Bella and Jared Forever!

I just had to make this video of Bella and Jared, she is always waiting for him at the door when he leaves and I'm just SURE that she's singing this in her head while he's gone. HA HA

A few summer projects finished!

So I finally got Jared's birthday present finished! It took me forever. Psalms 23 is Jared's favorite scripture so I stitched it for him. Glad to have it finished. These are some cute hot pads I just finished, they are a little lopsided but I think they turned out well!

This apron took me a while to do as well, it was a lot of ironing and sewing edges, it's for my sister Janae for her wedding this coming weekend, I'm also making the same hot pads for her and hopefully some matching kitchen towels.

I wish the coloring looked better in these pictures, they are really bright pink.




It looks way cute with the bow, I think!

Wes Des Moines 2010

I finally have something to blog about! I just made these super cute pin cushions, one for my mom and one for me, I love them! They are from the fabric I'm using to make my sister Janae's apron for her wedding June 12th, I just hope I get it done by then. Should be cute! We're now in West Des Moines for the summer, it's a really nice area, everything is pretty new and kept nice, the weather has just changed this week to being in the 90's and very humid. I feel for the guys that are out knocking on doors all day. Jared is doing very well, he's been the top rep in our office since getting out here, I love him! He's such a hard worker, I know I could never do what he does.
We've been thinking about making the move to Georgetown Texas to be closer to Jared's Dad, brother and sister in law (and kids), they are so fun to be around so it makes it a lot easier to know that we will have a blast. We both have a chance to be set up with jobs and housing is so much cheaper than in Utah. Will post more once the decision is final.
I'll be posting more pictures once I get more little crafts made, I'm excited!
