Where did this last month go?????

Wow I have no idea where July went!  We have been super busy here the days are just flying by! Kids go back to school in two weeks.......

Here are a few pics of what I have been doing!

My friends daughter turned 2 and I had the honor to make her birthday cake & the birthday girls outfit!  She had a farm theme party here is the cake and I made cow, pig & chick cupcakes.

This is her outfit I painted the little animals on to the pants to match the fabric!

I have two patterns in this super fun catalog for 2011!  You can find it here!

You can find me in March........

And in July.........

I hope you are enjoying the summer!

Cathedral Windows

I finally tried my hand at a Cathedral Window Quilt (well mini quilt)  I only had a few yards of white fabric

in my stash or I would have continued this one....

I am so excited with the results!  I followed a Super Easy tutorial by Heather / A La Mode Fabric and

it made things so much easier than I ever thought! 

All I can say is be ready to iron!!! But the results are oh so worth it!

In this view I held it up to the window so the light filtered through.  I think it is so pretty!

If you have been a little hesitant to try this design now is time following Heather's tutorial you are sure to

have success! Lots of luck!

Have a Happy Day! Meg

Sew Busy!!!!

We have been super busy working on our house and the hubby and I finally got to

move into our new bed room this weeked! Still need to add crown molding and trim but

other than that we are getting settled! I LOVE how my quilt looks on the wall I have been

planning on seeing this come together for about a year now and I am so happy how

it turned out! The walls are Vintage Orange....

The bathroom is done as well I love the Mum decals I bought off etsy and of course the

beautiful painting from  Sara's Art House.

My Castle Peeps arrived I love the color combos!  I am still not sure what I will be making yet....

I have been sewing some cute little skirts and tops for my friends little girl. 

I am having so much fun she is a true princess!  I will have more pics to share soon, 

here is a tutu and demin skirt I made for her last week!

I hope you are all having a wonderful summer so far!  Meg
