Fabric Scraps Ornament Tutorial

I shared this tutorial a couple of weeks ago, but you still have time to whip some up....I think they would look darling on the top of a present! (And watch over on Facebook today for us to announce the winner of our quilt giveaway!) Hi everyone!  I am Elizabeth, one half of the duo of sisters-in-law who blog at Simple Simon and Company.  And if there is one thing that we love at Simple Simon, it's a great simple sewing project that can be done in an afternoon.  With that being said, ...

Easy Holiday Ear Warmers

Recently while fabric shopping at Joann Fabric and Crafts, I spied ear warmers and gloves in their dollar bins.  I thought that they would make some great last-minute holiday gifts for some girls on our list so I grabbed quite a few sets.  I then ran over to grab some wool felt and pompoms and I knew we had all the supplies for a perfect afternoon of crafting. And then Hannie saw them and thought that they would make perfect gifts for her friends.  So, last week, we spent some time after ... View the Post

I have been doing some sewing lately…….

 Even though it doesn't look like it, I have been doing some garment sewing recently.  And you will probably see more of these things in the future  because it sometimes takes awhile behind the scenes to get them up and ready for you. (Especially this time of year...) So, I am giving you a couple of sneak peeks and one finished garment.  (Yay for the finished one!) First up is a sneak peek of Hannie's Christmas dress.... I am in love with brocade this season (you are going to see ... View the Post

DIY Giant Wooden Dominoes (A Homemade Christmas Gift Success Story)

My husband and I always make our children at least one homemade gift each year for Christmas.  Sometimes they are a hit and sometimes they are a miss. Luckily last year our idea was a hit.  A BIG one! A family set of over sized Dominoes! My husband cut the set out of pine planks from Home Depot and each domino is roughly 3 and 1/2 inches by 5 inches.  (Which has been a perfect size!) Then he used a saw to cut the middle notch.  (Being careful not to cut through the domino.)  And ... View the Post
