<br />
Time for a craft night. Halloween is one of my favorite holidays to decorate and craft for so there is NO WAY I was going to let another Halloween pass by without getting together and crafting. I absolutely love witches and when I came across this adorable pattern by Cindy Markovcy, I had to have it! She has a bunch of great patterns here: <a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop/cindyshomespun">www.etsy.com/shop/cindyshomespun</a> <br />

This will be the item we will be making. The cost will be $25. The majority of the sewing will be done for you. All you need to do is paint, socialize, assemble doll--"witch" might require a little hand stitching, nothing you can't handle, and enjoy the night!

(oh I miss my garage) I switched to indoor crafting and the one that takes the most of my time, is sewing. I've never taken any other classes besides Home Ec. in Jr High School--thanks Mrs. Mock. Needless to say it has been a fun adventure learning as I go and coming up with my own techniques--which I'm sure there are real names for and probably faster ways to do them! I love to create things and experiment with new ideas. Here is a little history that got me started. <br />
<br />
I am a mother of 4 with baby #5 on the way!<br /> One day my husband was feeding lunch to our little girl, we had 2 boys previously, and he noticed her bib was "boyish". (By the 3rd baby, you kinda just use what's available!) Well, he decided she needed a more "girlie" bib, which is when he got an idea. He thought it would be adorable to have her precious face be the center of a flower. He spoke with me later that night about his idea and asked if I could make it. We then brainstormed and got a few different ideas. I had the "ok" to spend as much money as I needed to get going and get the designs perfect. This was not hard for me because I love to buy fabric and crafty stuff, and create things...I began to wonder if he would regret the "ok" he gave me! My mind was going a million miles an hour, I could not keep up! I got right to work. It took some time to get the designs to look the way I imagined (I have a hard time making the idea that's in my head, come to life) I got discouraged many times, but was inspired more, so I pressed on. I soon made my first bib. It was a sunflower bib. It was exactly what I wanted...except I made it with scrap fabrics so my adorable little girl was still wearing a "not-so-girlie" bib! (Or at least not-so-cute)<br /><br /> Creating this first bib gave me the drive to continue on. Since, I have been designing and creating these unique, adorable bibs. As of now, we have 15 different designs created and many more waiting to be brought to life.<br /><br /> I now have 4 children and another on the way. I always reach for these bibs over any others because I love the look, the functionality, the style, and mostly that my baby keeps her clothes clean!<br /><br /> All bibs are made with 100% cotton and backed with absorbent terry cloth. They are sewn with coordinating thread and top stitched for durability and style. All are secured with a heavy duty snap, so little hands don't pull them off!<br />

These are the original styles I came up with. I since have come up with many more. Next I made some elephants, monkeys, and cupcakes.<br />

I recently got a new sewing machine that I am still working on figuring out all the great features it has. I still haven't shown you what I've been working on for the past few years, but here is a quick summer dress I made in 30 minutes for my little girl!<br />
<br />
So this week I went to the fabric store to get a few needed things and of course I saw this Hello Kitty fabric and HAD to get it for my little girl! Right now she adores this little kitty. She was so happy when I showed her the fabric and told her what I was going to make for her. She asked if she could wear it right away. I explained that I needed to sew it first and then she could wear it. Instantly, there was nothing more important than for me to get us home and start sewing! I only got 1 picture because that was as long as I could get her to hold still for me. So here it is, the finished project:<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-JEIAYIgskPc/U8xB3TbWGzI/AAAAAAAACXY/_B53GaBzv2g/s1600/Maddie's+dress.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-JEIAYIgskPc/U8xB3TbWGzI/AAAAAAAACXY/_B53GaBzv2g/s1600/Maddie's+dress.JPG" height="320" width="240" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
This only took me about 30 minutes and I actually made 2! (One for her little sister too)</div>
<br />
The fabric itself has several bands of elastic and gathered fabric at the top. I measured each girl's chest and cut the fabric 1 inch longer to allow for the seam. I sewed each dress together using a 1/2 inch seam. I double checked the top part where the elastic and gathered fabric is to ensure that the elastic was sewn into the seam (to make sure it wouldn't unravel with wear).<br />
<br />
I then was going to use my pinking shears on the seam, but remembered that my new sewing machine had special stitches to help fabric not fray. (I did not have enough energy or patience to get my surger out for such a simple job, that probably didn't even need it) I used an overcasting stitch to reinforce the edge of the fabric. I have never used this stitch before so I do not know how it will turn out, but that's the fun of it! Learning new things as we experiment along the way! (I don't think the overcasting stitch was required, but I just did it to see how it holds up and performs. So if you don't have a surger or machine that can do overcasting stitches, this project is still doable for you)<br />
<br />
Next, I had the girls try their dress on (inside out) so I could measure the length of straps and pin them into place. I made the straps out of basic black ribbon. (I wanted to make this project as simple as I could...maybe that way I could for sure get it done) If you're like me, I have several projects going at one time and sometimes it takes a while to get them done! Anyway, once in place, I carefully took them off my girls and sewed them into place. I then trimmed up the extra threads and was finished. She was so excited to put it on, I could barely get it on her straight!<br />
<br />
She loves this simple, comfortable dress. Once something gets on it she asks if I can wash it right away so she can wear it again. Oh, this is what makes a project worthwhile...the excitement and happiness it brings to others! Happy sewing!!Brand797http://www.blogger.com/profile/14732719943205958403noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7994497298157889956.post-3012482421064338282014-07-06T21:39:00.000-07:002014-07-06T21:39:12.175-07:00So it's been a LONG while!<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Hello everyone....if anyone is still there! I feel so bad that I have not been crafting. No excuses here, but in case you want to know here's why:<br />
<br />
We did major construction on our house...we actually moved our house to the back yard so we could dig a basement. In order to have this happen we needed to tear down our garage, AKA my workshop! I was sad, but SUPER excited to double the size of our house! 4 years later, we are loving our basement! It has made it possible for us to stay in our home. We now have baby #5 on the way, which would NOT have been possible without the basement.<br />
<br />
I often think about craft nights and how much fun I use to have helping and visiting with my fellow crafters. I have SOOOOO many ideas that have been running in my mind, but I still don't have a workshop :( My hubby and I are working on how to get things available to use again. I do not know how soon this will happen, but at least we are talking about it. I have begun to do some indoor crafting (non wood working) since I have this new big spacious basement! (I hope to share these items with you soon...until then, enjoy these exciting pictures of our CrAzY house move!) I have tried to include pictures that are step by step of the move so there are quite a lot of them. This was such a fun, yet stressful event in our lives. I am so glad we did it and would not change a thing!<br />

I know I have pictures of the demolition of my workshop or at least I did. They were uploaded to another computer since I could not get into my home during the move...I just don't remember which computer or whose! I am not computer savvy so I need to see if my techy husband can figure it out for me. When they are found (hopefully) I will share them with you.<br />

This picture isn't the best, I know, but it was all I could find. I need to organize my photos! They are chaotic. I am lucky I found this one.

Usually I have a drawing for those who attend any given craft night...well, now is your chance to enter even if you don't attend!<br /><br /><p align="left"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5504753492910454482" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 241px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 112px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_yxi7YVhhXOc/TGTQIukEttI/AAAAAAAAB4A/8lCq_0dHLtU/s400/Scentsy-Logo%5B2%5D.png" border="0" /> Megan (who is a Scentsy Independent Consultant) has contacted me and was kind enough to offer this generous prize for the drawing/giveaway. The prize is a Full Size Scentsy system - which is <span style="font-size:130%;">1</span> full sized Scentsy warmer of your choice plus <span style="font-size:130%;">3</span> Scentsy bars in your choice of scents. How great is that!!<br /><br /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5504753499595876642" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 114px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_yxi7YVhhXOc/TGTQJHeAKSI/AAAAAAAAB4I/MuewhjBI34c/s400/scentsy_bars%5B1%5D.jpg" border="0" /> For those of you who don't know about Scentsy (you are totally missing out) here's a little bit about them. Scentsy is a company that focused on aromatic candles, but it's not just any ordinary "candle". This "candle" is a decorative warmer(s) with wax melted by the heat of a light bulb instead of a traditional wick and flame.<br /><br />Who hates to light their candles only because of the dreaded smell after you blow them out?-- I do!! When I received a Scentsy system as a Christmas gift, I literally tossed all my candles out. It is a spectacular system! I love how easy it is to change the scents with my daily moods. I honestly use mine everyday.<br /><br /><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_yxi7YVhhXOc/TGTQPw14L0I/AAAAAAAAB4Q/givCiH74kBE/s1600/Scentsy_Roma_Warmer%5B1%5D.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5504753613781086018" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 300px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 300px" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_yxi7YVhhXOc/TGTQPw14L0I/AAAAAAAAB4Q/givCiH74kBE/s400/Scentsy_Roma_Warmer%5B1%5D.jpg" border="0" /></a> Okay so now you are thinking, "I'm sensitive to smells" well, there's hope for you! There are many, many, many different scents to choose from. Some of them strong and some of them mild. You can burn them for as long or as little as you like. I have heard of several people that are sensitive to smells, but they have found success in finding their favorite, enjoyable scents.<br /><br />BTW- the warmer to the left is currently my favorite!!! And the Home Sweet Home scent is burning as we speak....as I type!<br /><br />Okay, okay, enough about the fabulous free gift, lets hear about how to enter!<br /><br /><span style="font-size:130%;"><strong>Here's what you need to do</strong>:</span> <span style="color:#000000;">Comment below</span> telling me which warmer is your favorite - check out the options {HERE - <a href="http://www.meganbourne.scentsy.ca/">http://www.meganbourne.scentsy.ca/</a> }. <span style="color:#000000;">You must do this in order for additional entries to count.</span><br />What?? <strong><span style="font-size:130%;color:#000000;">You can enter more than once</span></strong>??

I'm sure by now you have decided that I have fallen off the face of the blogging world....which pretty much is true. I decided I should let you know what is going on.<br /><br />With the recent events, I have lost what little motivation I once had. I have a few things that I am working on currently, and hope to have them done soon. I mentioned to a few, that the next craft night would be in March, but my home is under construction so I do not have access to all my crafty supplies and my mind is elsewhere. The March craft night has been put on hold. I sincerely appologize and will keep you posted.<br /><br />Thank you for your understanding.Brand797http://www.blogger.com/profile/14732719943205958403noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7994497298157889956.post-62613832197487242032009-11-20T15:12:00.000-08:002009-11-20T15:19:51.122-08:00New items<div align="center">Ok so I have added a few more options for the December craft night.

(thanks Ali) I thought it was a great idea and couldn't wait for the first one! Right away I sat down and came up with multiple ideas for all the different seasons. The hardest part for me was deciding which ones to use, there were so many to choose from. </div><br /><div align="center"></div><br /><div align="center">The first craft night was a great success and I enjoyed sharing my ideas and helping others put them together. I continued to plan and hold one craft night per month. I enjoy it every time and love to visit with and get to know everyone who attends. I look forward to this next year and can't wait for the September craft night.

No RainI just want to thank everyone who came to this month's craft night. It actually turned out great. I was a little skeptical when, 20min before people arrived, the sky grew dark and the winds picked up. I was so worried, we (and I mean a few who were early) moved all the supplies that I set up outside--inside. Thank you for your help. The weather got better and we could have stayed outside, but I actually enjoyed having it both inside and out. Thank you all for working with the weather and being willing to be cramped inside the house. I hope you all enjoyed your crafting experience and your items!<br /><br /><div align="center">Congratulations to this months drawing winners:</div><br /><div align="center">10% off next purchase: Kaylee L.</div><div align="center">10% off next purchase: Kristi U.</div><div align="center">20% off next purchase: Cara G.</div><div align="center">Everyday magnets: Carrie R. </div><br /><br />Next months items will be Patriotic.
