The past month or two has been a busy sewing time for me. It seems like there were a lot of babies being born! I usually like to make burp cloths to give and sometimes the girls in the family hire me to do them so they have gifts to give as well. I’m happy […]

It’s been really hot in the south lately, and what better way to cool off than in the pool! Not me of course but the kiddies. My daughter called and told me recently that she bought one for the backyard because it was too hard for one person to take a toddler and a nine […]

When the new baby was born almost 2 months ago, my DIL found a diaper pouch she wanted us to make. Since I haven’t had babies in a bit I wasn’t all that familiar with them; but it’s something to put in your purse or bag that holds 3 or so diapers and maybe a […]

We started bible school on Monday….the decorating went better than we first thought. Now I’m just trying to study some each day and get materials and activities together! Found lots of bamboo looking mats and some grass skirt type things in boxes at the church so those got hung in lots of places. Someone made […]
