Pencil Skirt

I made this pencil skirt for a wedding I was in earlier this year. I think it turned out pretty cute. I think my favoirite thing about this skirt is that instead of a slit in the back, it has an adorable ruffle, which gives it a bit more personality than a traditional pencil skirt.

USU Tee Shirt Quilt

My husband and I are HUGE Aggie fans. While we were engaged, we had way too many USU Tee Shirts, so we decided to make a Tee Shirt Quilt out of some of them. It is a great way to keep sentimental tee shirts, while keeping your dresser less full. And it is a great FootBall quilt!

Child's Armchair Seat Cover


Someone gave me a Foam form of an armchair that was kid sized. I thought it was super cute, but I had visions of my little boy spilling his juice all over it. I had to make a cover before I let him get his dirty little hands all over it. Here is what I come up with.

Whinney the Pooh Blanket

This was one of my favorite projects. My baby's room theme is Classic Whinney the Pooh. Try as I might, I could not find a Classic Whinney the Pooh quilt that I liked, so I made one instead. I think it turned out pretty good.

One of my favoite things on this quilt is that all the characters names are quilted into the blanket( I gotta give credit to my mom, that was her idea). If you look close you can see "Pooh" in the plaid block beneath Pooh Bear.

Blessing/Christening Romper

I made this romper for my baby's blessing.


Here are some snaps of my little guy wearing it.

Court Jester Costume for 1 1/5 year old.

For Halloween last year, I was Very Very Pregnant. My Husband had the idea of me dressing up as Humpty Dumpty, and he being the King. We decided to make our 20 month old the Court Jester. Here's how it turned out:


And here is a shot of Humpty Dumpty with the Court Jester (yes, I made my costume too, but there was not much sewing envolved, so I don't think I can give it it's own post):
