Cell phone charging basket
A cell phone charging basket I recently made from the tutorial posted by Oh, Fransson! I like the way it turned out, and of course, this continues the slew of projects I’ve been making from Amy’s Midwest Modern fabric. Yum! Here’s the inside and back: The inside panels have been free-motion quilted (with the BSR […]

Happy new year, everyone! Hey look, it’s more Midwest Modern! I told you I was obsessed. I was heading to a conference recently and decided I needed me a business card holder, so here you go – a quickie Midwest Modern business card holder. It’s just a little lined pocket – nothing fancy – but […]

This unsuspecting lawn chair –and another that is its unpictured twin — has been dubbed a “holiday chair.” My parents-in-law have been building their house in Maine, and they are waiting to get their permanent living room furniture until all the finishing touches are put on. This past Thanksgiving, and just recently again at […]

I’m a bit behind on my blogging, to say the least, but despite my intermittent posting, I can’t possibly neglect to post these goodies that made their way in the mail to my little house a while ago. Stephanie from Creative Reveries was kind enough to send these after I correctly guessed when she would […]

Yay! I ordered a bunch of Dog Named Banjo labels a few weeks ago, and they have finally arrived, in all their labely glory! I sewed one into my new belt, just to see, you know, and I love it! Fancyweaver.com is where I got ’em, and they were cheap (35 bucks) for 250 of […]

As many of you may have read or may know, I am working my way towards becoming a master canner and preserver of all-things-delicious-at-their-peak so I can eat them when the world is cold, harsh and wintery. I’ve not yet mastered this, however. I think I’ve got most aspects of the preserving down; it’s the […]

I took these pictures to submit to the u-handbag AB contest this month! And because it was a beautiful day and I have been meaning to put more Banjo on this blog. She put up with it quite patiently!

Well, I’m back home now from India. Half of me is screaming “Thank goodness,” happy to have non-spicy food options, the comforts of home, and my own bed. The other half is sad that I don’t get to stick around longer and see the real India instead of the inside of board rooms and busses. […]

Here are some happy things going on right now: I finished grad school, which evokes a feeling I can sum up in one simple word: ThankTheGoodLordINeverThoughtThisDayWouldCome. This means many things, but most immediately that I will have an extra 15-20 hours/week of my life back and nary another subtle undercurrent of that “I-should-stop-doing-this-fun-thing-because-I-have-to-write-a-paper / finish-a-project […]

It was a busy weekend! A quick trip up to Maine to visit family meant that Little B had fun playing with one of her best dog pals, Milos. We always wish we could stay longer, but it’s at least nice to get up for a little bit. Don’t let the green fool you in […]
