My NEW Sewing Box!

Well, Eric bought me the sewing box that I really wanted...(thank you hubby!) These boxes really can get expensive!!! I was so happy to get this and of course it is all filled up to the brim with all my odds and ends :). My first alteration was ribbons added to the handle of the box...lol! I need the box raring and ready to go for my next big project, see below.

Here is the next major project that I will be taking on. I am making aprons for Mother's Day 2009 gifts. I have to plan this far in advance or else they will never get done. Also, I wanted to try to make a 2009 Christmas Apron for my mother and mil. I found some great holiday fabric that I purchased in the sage green and red, which will look adorable!!! I am also thinking of making an Easter aprons for me in the purple and green dot along with the gingham green and white check. I still need to find a matching floral and also fabric for the brown and pink dot pattern to match. Nothing jumped out to me at the fabric store. I was going to look online later today and see what I can find. If anyone knows of a great site with more designer fabrics, please share or post a comment. Thanks!!!


Well, I said that I would be getting crafty during the time I am off work and this is it!

Happy New Year 2009!!!


To all my friends and family or anyone stopping by...Happy New Year!!!

In working or in waiting,
Another year with thee
