Stitchy, Stitchy, Stitchy...

I have been stitching like crazy lately and I couldn't be happier. 

 I decided to treat myself a few months ago and bought Little Stitches by Aneela Hoey. Best book EVAH!

Do you recognize these little girls? They are the same ones that she uses in her fabric designs. Gah, I can't stand the cuteness.






And this little cutie is from the Aimee Ray book I am giving away if you follow me on twitter. This was the first time I had made a little doll. I am definitely hooked!

I love when I get the chance to make a video for Craftster. This month's craft was way cool and so easy! It is hard to believe that plastic spoons could be so decorative!

Crafting it Up!

Even though life has been demanding, I have been able to get a little crafting done. A girl has to get her craft on! I haven't finished my Easter mantle yet, but I have started decorating for the holiday. I have been dying to make faux chocolate Easter bunnies, so I finally broke down and painted these bad boys up!

Wanna know what else I've been working on? These awesome confetti bowls. They are MESSY but make an awesome Easter basket or bowl for your coffee table.





Let's see...oh yeah! I also made this jar for my memories of 2013. Every time something good happens in 2013, we write it down and put it in the jar. On New Year's Eve, at dinner, we will take all of the good memories out and read them.

Of course I couldn't forget about stitching something up, so here ya go!

Whew! No wonder I haven't been around in a month! Mama needs a cocktail and a massage!
