Scrappy Mother's Day

Lola is such a good mama to Jujube. They have never been apart.

From the time Jujube was a baby...



To adulthood...



I take great comfort in my Golden Girls...


And Pete.


Scrappy Mother's Day to all the scrappy moms out there.

Queen of Everything

Mother's Day is this weekend but you still have time to show your mom that she is the queen of everything by making these AWESOME crowns. I think I need to make one for myself and for the pups, cause really, they are the queens of everything, and then some...

SCORE!

I was lucky enough to participate in Creative Breathing's decorative box swap. My partner was Shara from MonkeyBox. Oh man! Did she ever spoil me! Check out all the goodies!

Here's the box I made her. I forgot to take a picture of all the goodies inside.

Thanks to Creative Breathing and to Monkeybox for making this such an awesome swap.

Thanks to everyone who started following me on Twitter and guess what-there will be exclusive twitter contests to come, cause it's fun and because I need to clean out my stash of floss and patterns.

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!
