this is me at 25 weeks by request. depending on how much i explode will depend on if there are more pictures to come or not :)so one of the first projects I took upon was finishing a quilt from a family reunion. my little brother Neal won this quilt in a drawing, and my mom gave it to us. it had raw edges that weren't put together, so I made a nice hem for it and gave it a nice finish. yeah for sewing machines!
in our bedroom we have been using a red fleece blanket that was pinned up with tacks to cover our window. i had some curtains that i had for some odd reason, so i went to lowe's and got some curtain rods. my dear hubby put the rods up (it was quite the ordeal, we can't wait to have our own house so we actually know what's behind the wall). now our bedroom looks much more put together.
my ward had a talent swap some time ago, and one of them was sewing projects. we're using a pack n play for our little guy to sleep in his first year of life since our apartment is so small and we have so much stuff. one of the sewing projects was for a pack n play sheet cover. they average from $10-$20, but i made ours for a little under $3! yeah for trying to be domestic. here are the directions to make one.
next on the list: sewing the pillows on our couch so they stop sliding down, finish crocheting baby blanket, sewing pillows for our bedroom, sewing a baby carrier sling, sewing covers for our chairs, and painting a picture. yikes! that's a long list! i've got less then 3 months to get those all done. hope i don't get burnt out before hand!
