Preserving college memories with a T-shirt quilt

I haven’t worn my sorority T-shirts since I graduated from Augustana College in the spring of 2007. While they made up my everyday wardrobe in college, somehow it just didn’t seem appropriate to wear shirts commemorating awesome parties, homecoming and rush in the real world. So they sat in a storage box under the bed […]

Preserving memories with a T-shirt quilt

I’ve been working a lot on T-shirt quilts recently. I had a bunch of shirts from my sorority days in college that I don’t wear anymore. I didn’t want to toss them, but I also don’t have the space to store them all, so I decided re-purposing them as a quilt was the best option. […]

Angela Sundress

Pretty girls and little dresses

I took June off as a kind of maternity leave from the blog, but that doesn’t mean I haven’t been sewing. Angela is on a pretty predictable schedule, which means I’m able to get some sewing in during her naps. That’s when I whipped up this cute little dress for Angela. It’s a little big […]

Productive insomnia

I’ve reached that point in my pregnancy where sleep is elusive. I’m up every couple hours dealing with heartburn, sore hips or pressure on my sciatic nerve, and let’s not forget the increasingly frequent trips to the bathroom. Then there are the mornings where I wake up an hour or so before my alarm with […]

Puppy Love crib quilt reveal

I am feeling pretty accomplished right now. I’m 21 weeks along and I’ve already got the crib quilt done for my baby’s nursery. It’s quite the feat considering I normally need a deadline to get anything done. Really it wouldn’t have been that surprising if I had been putting the final stitches in the binding […]
