LOVE NOTES FOR KIDS.......UPCYCLED DENIM POCKET WITH NOTES Or Make Your Own



My newest creation! Will be going to the craft fair and if they do well will be making them for my Etsy shop.

 LOVE NOTES FOR KIDS. 

 Upcycled jean pockets sewed on to vintage drawer pulls.  They come with premade notes for your kids. Just tuck one into the pocket each day to let your kids know you are always thinking of them!
Or tuck in your own notes or little surprises like a cookie, toy etc!

I am doing my first craft fair on Feb 8th!  Just signed up so lots of work to do between now and then.

I made these items today....can't you see the denim pocket hanging in a young boys room for his parent to leave little notes for him??

3rd Year Quilting Class....Block # 1......................


Supposed to be this Z's Block, but since I made a mistake it turned into this!!

Still have to border it to bring it to 12 1/2 x 12 1/2
These will be the colors for each block coming up, looking forward to doing more!

I made another one and did this one correctly!  Will be making a smaller quilt along with a queen sized with the class blocks.

For My Kitchen...................


I've had this old vintage tray for years now.  Originally I had painted it yellow with flowers.  Today I gave it a makeover with chalkboard black paint and white trim paint.  Going to sit on a chest freezer and be used for fruit.  I was going for an Art-Deco look and I think I achieved it pretty well!

What Your Roomba Really Does When You Set It and Leave....


 I set it to clean my bedroom floor and when I got home I found the phone on top of it. Have no idea how it got there, but I guess the Roomba wanted to chat with someone!

Couch Quilt.......................................


Hand pieced, most of it done yesterday as the outside temps were in the single digits!

Will probably machine quilt since I want it done quickly so hubby and I can take turns having winter naps on the couch!   Measures approx. 48 x 74.
