I made this cute little shirt to go with some pj's for the shop. While ironing it I noticed some spots on the right sleeve. I have no idea where they came from but they wont come out. They are not extremely noticeable but since I know they are there I spot them right away. I can't/wont sell this shirt so I am giving it away- if anyone wants it send me a comment or email.
T-shirt is size 2T-3T 
Here is the new complete set ;) 
The color blue must be on my mind. I have been using it in a few projects, dressing myself and Colin in it, wishing to see it in the sky. 
*Not-so-little blue bird (from this book) along with the appliquéd t-shirt was a birthday gift for Stella, Sarah's daughter.
* photo of the blue sky as we were driving home from Grandma Candi's house. You can kind of see Mt. Hood in the background
*A really cozy and heavy crocheted blanket my mom and I came across as we were unpacking.
I think the blanket is wonderful. It is so cheerful to look at on these gray days we continue to have her in the PNW. It has definitely brought us some color this last couple days and I think it is time to share it. How about a giveaway?? That's right I am going to give this pretty blanket away. I don't know where it came from but it is in great shape and I think the yarn is a wool blend because it is really heavy for its size. Due to the weight of the blanket the giveaway is open to U.S. residences only...sorry
Simply leave a comment before Sunday, June 13th on this post and I will pick a winner via the random number generator on Monday. Good Luck
Remember this photo?
Just in case you didn't read the wordy post from yesterday some repeat photos :) .....
I started cutting out circles by hand and then decided to speed things up and bought this.
Had Brett fix my already cut circles while adding the steam-a-seam
Then we, mainly Brett, cut out the rest. I just laid the fabric on top of the square adhesive sheets and cut them both out at the same time.
We did various sized circles with 5 different fabrics. I laid the shower curtain out flat on the living room floor and flung the circles like frisbees hoping for a random layout. I liked how it looked so I pined them in place and then got to work attaching them to the curtain. First with the iron (for the steam-a-seam) then with the embroidery floss.
I love it and so does Colin. Brett is a little concerned about the goldfish named Robert looking at him while he uses the facility :)
Brett got it for me for Valentines Day. Well I wanted it and didn't want to feel guilty about it so I told him he got it for me :) I was ordering other stuff from Amazon so I figured I may as well get with the free shipping. I got it without ever seeing it in person. There are some great ideas in it but I was hoping for more tips on how to clean vintage fabrics so you could reuse them.
The books Towel Rug: it used a towel for the entire backside. I decided since my piece of towel was new and super soft I would just put trim around it to finish it off.
(I hope it's okay I showed the picture from the book)
I have yet to but it in the bathroom as we are still waiting for the paint to dry. For now Colin is enjoying it as a play mat.
