Flannel Sets

Here are just a few of the flannet blankets and burp cloths that I am putting up on my Etsy site. They are $20 for a blanket and two burp cloths. The fabric is so cute. Right now they are one of a kind so snatch them while you can. I may be able to get the same fabric again so let me know if you want something else in the same fabric and I'll see what I can do.

The pictures of solo blankets come with the burp cloths too but they have just a white background instead of the color. They have the main pattern though.

All blankets are average 41"x34" and burp cloths 19 1/2"x 10 1/2"

Look out for more styles. I have about 15 more sets.





Amy Butler Buttercup Bag

My sister-in-law commissioned me to make her a couple things with this fabric. It is the Amy Butler Optic Blossom and Martini Gray. Such cute fabric.

Here is what I will be making with this fabric.
- Buttercup Bag (pattern from Made By Rae)
- two luggage tags
- key fob
- bifold wallet
I finished the Buttercup Bag and it turned out so good. I'm pretty happy with it.


This is my first yo yo flower. I put it on a pin so that she could take it off. I used a totally different fabric and a gray button.

I have two more purses done and one in the making. Look for them coming up on my Etsy site.

Etsy Shop

Just to let you all know I am putting a bunch of stuff on my Etsy store. I am getting rid of stamps, stickers, embossing powder, and much much more there. I will also be selling a lot of things that I am making.

Look for those smocks made from adult shirts. They are wonderful. I use the one I made for my daughter all the time. They will be one of a kind since I find the shirts in many different places and never more than one of the same.

Also look for the Buttercup bags. The design is from Made By Rae. I love them and I know you will too. They are the perfect little bag for anyone.

Crocheted Bangle Socks

This was my first attempt at making these bangle socks. I got some of these when I was pregnant with my daughter. I just thought they were so cute. Four years later I was ready to try making them. I love them. I can't wait for the winter just so that she can wear them.

I also made some less intricate and with purple beads. So cute.

Pillowcase Dress

I found this pillowcase at the Goodwill and was going to make an apron out of it and decided to make my daughter a dress instead. It turned out really cute but slightly big. Oh well, at least that's better than too small.

Here is a couple tutorials on how to make one. The first one is the one I used.

Smock Tutorial

If you haven't noticed already, I get all my ideas from other people. I just wanted to have a nice spot where you could find all the tutorials for what I have made. This one is a smock that I made from a women's shirt. It was the perfect size for my daughter.

I don't know why I didn't make this sooner. It was super easy and I have used it a billion times since making it yesterday. My daughter has used it as a paint smock, an apron, and a "sort of" bib. It has definitely come in handy. I will be making more of these. It's a great gift idea. Personally I think every kid should have two. One for wear and the other for when the first is in the laundry.

Buttercup Bag Tutorial

I found this purse tutorial from Made By Rae and absolutely love it. It is made from two fat quarters. In fact it takes less than that. I had a ton of leftovers. Click on her blog name to go to the tutorial. It was major easy to do.
