Frenchy Bag Pour Moi

This is my Saturday afternoon project... 



Some modifications: I made the bag about two inches wider, lengthen the straps, and divided the 2 large pockets into four. I'm very pleased with the results. ^___^

~Spring is Here~

It was over 90 degrees here yesterday! It was very warm, but it was nice to put on a sleeveless again. I received a phalaenopsis orchid last year as a gift. I didn't fertilize it and only watered it all year. Well... it starting budding and now it's first bloom after last year! I'm soooo excited and happy! Here are some pictures...



I decided on the knitting my mom some socks for her birthday. This would be my first pair that I knit and first time I try lace. I'm a little bit nervous... the pattern I decided was Hedera on Knitty.



These are my beginnings...

Twinkle Weekend Knits

As I was flipping through the Twinkle Weekend Knits book, I found a few projects I wanted to work on.  Here the pictures from the book.  



I'm thinking about making the lilac mist throw for my mommy's birthday...

Frenchy Bag

This is my next sewing project. The morning glory fabric (middle) will the be main exterior, the red dots will be the accent exterior, and the blue dots will be the interior. I have the fabric cut out... now I just need to cut the interfacing and start sewing!

Matching Headband

Yesterday was my sister-in-law's birthday, and Chris grilled steaks for the family to celebrate. It was delicious! =)

Saturday night I made a pattern for a wide headband, and sewed up a couple of them. This one was made to match the M5591 skirt from the previous post. (The headband and the skirt were presents to the birthday girl.) I'm pretty pleased with the results. ^__^
