Craft Fair!

This past weekend we did a craft fair at Jamaica Plain. I sold totes, zipper pouches and other sewn goodies. The boys made things to sell as well. It was a wonderful experience of customer interaction, meeting and trading with other sellers and of course, making sales. We hope to do it again in the summer :)

A Quilt for Grandma and Grandpa

I made this quilt for my husband's parents who live in rural Oklahoma. It was a fun project to make and visiting them was the best! All the fabric came from my stash and the pattern is a simple half square triangle. Thanks for looking :)

Teachers' Gifts

Hi there! I made these zipper pouches as teachers' gifts. My children have been exclusively on Zoom this year, so I wanted to show my love and appreciation for their amazing teachers! I loosely followed this tutorial as well as this one (which is my go-to method). 

Wedding Face Masks

I was contacted a few weeks ago about creating some custom masks for a cousin's wedding. The idea was to have each mask labelled with the relationship between the wearer and the groom. After some trial and error I came up with these. What do you think? It was a fun project!

Belt Bags

Recently we've been sewing belt bags. We wanted to make something that would work when biking and camping to carry our essentials. First up, W made a bag from this pattern. It is a nice size for adult or child and I like that it's flat. We added velcro to attach it to the front of his bike.

I made this bag. The pattern was a video and easy to follow although I had to tweak it a bit and I ended up with extra pieces. Have you made anything recently? Thanks for reading!

Life in Quarantine

Hi! Are you in quarantine? We've been home for three weeks. Our time is spent doing school, making face masks and perler beading! Here are some crackers we made:

And a video about being thorough:

Stay safe xx
