Today I am excited to finally release our Santa (and His Elf) Quilt Pattern! The idea for this quilt came about a year ago when my family was putting together a tree for the "Festival of Trees" (a local festival where trees are sold, through a silent auction, and all proceeds go to our children's hospital). My family does a tree for the festival every year and last year our tree had an elf theme...and every year we pair the tree with a quilt....soooo...an elf inspired quilt was ... View the Post
Easy Hot Chocolate Charcuterie Board
Today I'm excited to share an easy hot chocolate charcuterie board that you can use at gatherings throughout the holiday season. Although...admittedly...this isn't a board. It is a tray I bought over the summer and LOVE. I use it ALL THE TIME. (I tried to find a link to it and can't find the exact tray but you can find ones similar HERE and HERE.)

Christmas in July 2019 Week #2: The Nightmare Before Christmas Gift Eating Snake
Today I am so excited to share how I made this giant Nightmare Before Christmas Gift Eating Snake! I love this snake...but I can't take all the credit for making it. Infact, the idea to even make him came from my 14 year old son. I was saying how it's lame that we don't even have a tree skirt...just a blanket that we use to wrap around the tree stand. And then he said the blanket was better than a skirt...but it would be way cooler if we had the snake from The Nightmare ... View the Post
Christmas in July 2019 Week #1: Using Fabric Scraps to Make Gift Wrap Ribbons
Welcome to Christmas in July! I have wanted to do a Christmas in July series FOREVER but I kept thinking can we do a Christmas in July series during Skirting the Issue? And last month, as I was thinking about this I thought...WHY NOT?!? (After all both are about giving.) So here we are and I couldn't be happier! Today we are starting with something I did last year for Christmas and am planning to do again this year...and that is.... Using my fabric scraps to create all the ... View the Post
