Turtle Softies

I found this turtle softie tutorial HERE. We decided to make one with 2 patches of white on the shell. Ella took it to school and her friends signed it on the last day of school. Super cute!

Then we helped Hannah make a turtle when she came over to visit.

Teacher Gifts

These are the teacher gifts I made this year. For one of Ella's teachers we made his daughters matching skirts & shirts. I think they turned out darling.


Then I made these quilted draw-string tote bags for the other 2 teachers. I love them and I still need to make one for myself!

Mikey Applique

I have been buying plain T-shirts and appliqueing Mickeys out of cute fabric. Sally has a Rapunzel one and and Ariel one. Ella's is just cute black and white flowers and Ryan's is space. I've also made Buzz Lightyear ones. And we made this cute pink princess-y one for a birthday gift with matching skirt!

Sunglasses Case


I made these sunglasses cases for gifts. I found the pattern HERE and then just added a ruffle and flower. I love how they turned out. They are lined with fleece or minkey. I gave them all away so I still have to make myself one!



Gathered Pillow

I made these pillows for Mother's Day. I found the tutorial HERE. I love how they turned out and they are fun to make.

Stuffed Birds for Easter

I got this darling bird pattern HERE from the Sewn Spaces book. You can download the pattern for free. I sewed at least 10 of them for Easter.
