What a Surprise!

My Mom came to Tyler for a visit and I was discussing with her how I wanted to make a pair of shoes that look like a horse. So, we went to Hancock Fabric to buy some supplies for me to give it a try. As I paid for my materials, I casually picked up a flyer by the register about their "Funtastic Fleece" Contest.  Well, it just so happened that the material I bought to make my shoes out of was FLEECE. I told my mom that if my shoes turned out decent, I just might enter them into the contest.  To make a long story short, I received a call tonight that I won FIRST PLACE!!!! I cannot believe it! I won a $100 gift card and I plan to use part of my card to purchase fabric to make Judson a new diaper bag.  I am so excited!!! Here are some pictures of my shoes I entered in the contest:

"Pay it Forward" Pin Cushions

I found a tutorial for a pin cushion a while back that I have been wanting to make. http://theobjectproject.typepad.com/the_object_project/2009/08/tea-cup-flower-series.html
Mine didn't turn out quite as cute as hers, but here are my creations:

This is what I decided to make for my Facebook "Pay it Forward" friends. I hope you like them, girls!

Superhero Capes!

A friend of mine asked me to consider making superhero capes for her son's birthday party. After doing a little research, I decided to take on the challenge! My friend gave the capes as party favors.  I made a cape and superhero mask to give to my little nephew for Christmas. I will include pictures of it too!

Sleep Sacks

I have been wanting to try to make a sleep sack for a while now. I have a sweet friend who just found out she is having a little girl, so I jumped on the opportunity to make her one for little Adelyn Camille. It's for my friend Courtney, and she doesn't even know I have made it for her.  I also made her a matching burp cloth. Here it is!  Surprise Courtney! I hope you like it!
