I was out yard sale-ing with my mom a couple of summers ago when we came across this vintage telephone stand....and it was one of those "I hope the price isn't too high....because I have the perfect place for it." And lo and behold the price was $8.00----SCORE!!!!! But the sad part was that the poor vintage phone stand then sat in my garage for 2 years....pathetic, I know. Especially because every time I would walk by it, I would think, "I've got to get that done, it is perfect for this ... View the Post
Jo-Anns’ Waverly Challenge: A Matching Sewing Apron & Machine Cover
Today I"m posting a project that was fun to make but I think would also be fun to give or receive: A matching sewing apron and sewing machine cover! I made the apron using the same basic idea and instructions that I used back when I made my first sewing apron: This new sewing apron is also made from a purchased apron.

I Haven’t Even Had A Capri Sun!
Look at that face.Man, I love this kid.I cannot believe that she is old enough to go to kindergarten this year...and I cannot believe that summer is already over. I had such big plans for this summer. Actually, they weren't big plans--they were plans to spend long days in the backyard running through sprinklers, playing in the mud and getting sun burned.
