Kraftex Luggage Tag

One day, hopefully in the near-ish future, we’ll all be able to travel safely again. I miss vacations and people that don’t live near me. I miss Quilt Market and traveling to teach, too. But like all things there are silver linings. I’ve enjoyed spending time with my family and my house has never beenContinue reading “Kraftex Luggage Tag”

I can’t hear you

Well, if I’m wearing headphones I might not be able to hear you. Or I can practice selective hearing, right? 😉 In all seriousness, 2020 has been a challenging year but there have been some good things to come from it. Getting organized has been one of them. I like to take my dog, Hondo,Continue reading “I can’t hear you”

Kraftex Composition Notebook Holder

I am a BIG fan of a composition notebook cover. For years I’ve made them as teacher gifts because they are quick, easy and reusable. This Kraftex version is no different. You can find my free pattern for a fabric covered composition notebook here. I started with a standard composition notebook. You can pick themContinue reading “Kraftex Composition Notebook Holder”

Big Big Print Zipper Pouch

This pouch screams TAKE ME TO THE BEACH! Seriously, this bag, cute suit, floppy hat, some kind of fruity drink and I’ll be set. And I don’t even like the beach. I do, however, absolutely adore this color of Kraftex and I’ve been going through a lime/chartreuse/peridot phase for some time now. For a fewContinue reading “Big Big Print Zipper Pouch”

Mini Zipper Pouch

Is this the cutest little pouch or what?! Oh. Em. Gee. It makes me smile. In fact, it’s mean to hold lipstick in my purse (not that I’m going anywhere) but it’s still sitting on a shelf in my sewing room so I can smile when I look at it. I can’t quite bring myselfContinue reading “Mini Zipper Pouch”

It’s Not Done ’til it’s Overdone

This month I made a darling, little embroidery/needlework holder. Cute, huh? It was so fun to make and went together really quickly! I wanted the case to be big enough that you could carry it in a tote bag and find it but not so big that it took up allll the space so IContinue reading “It’s Not Done ’til it’s Overdone”

Kraftex File Folder

Do you have papers floating around everywhere? Because I have papers floating around everywhere. I mean, I like to consider it organized chaos, but really, maybe it isn’t??? I know where everything is, too. Well, most of the time. It drives my super organized husband a little crazy, but as long as he doesn’t touchContinue reading “Kraftex File Folder”

Mark it!

Do you like to read for fun? I LOVE to when I have time. I need to make more time to read, to be honest, especially because I usually have several books going at one time. I’m currently reading The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo by Taylor Jenkins Reid. It’s OUTSTANDING! I was enthralled fromContinue reading “Mark it!”

Reusable Coffee Sleeve and Coaster

I try to give handmade gifts when I can. I mean, I can go out and buy a gift but handmade gifts are great; and who doesn’t like something made just for them?! With the holidays are around the corner that means teacher gifts, hostess gifts and gifts for friends and family are in myContinue reading “Reusable Coffee Sleeve and Coaster”
