{sewing} makes me seeeew happy.

These last few weeks have been filled with sewing, lots of sewing. My sewing machine, cutting mat and knick-knack box have become permanent residents on our dining room table. I didn't realize how much happiness could come from a little bit of sewing. My friend and I have been getting together once a week for a sewing date, I now love Tuesdays. I have put together a list of all the things I can't wait to sew on our dates. ☺

Here is my list:
pleated pouch
pocket tissue holder
lazy day skirts
scallop rag quilt

Here are some of the things I have been making:
burp cloths


They are so fun and easy to make! Tie up with ribbon and a gift card. You have the perfect baby shower gift.

These have become a new favorite! You can make with scraps or a fat quarter works really well! These make fun and unique gifts. Place with a gift card and some coffee. ☺
