My New Fabric Stash


I am the happiest when I am surrounded by fabric. In this case, hundreds and hundreds of pieces of 100% cotton quilting fabrics. Several people are asking to see it, so here it is. Yes, there are even a few polka dot fabrics in there too.

What you see is just a portion of my newly acquired stash. I am happy, happy happy!

I'm in the process of clearing space in my craft room for these lovelies. It is already bursting at the seams but I will fit it in there somehow.

I haven't had the opportunity to do any crafting today but I promise that I'll be back tomorrow with another craft project. See you then.

Aloha!

Yes, More Polka Dots!

I decided to spruce up my pencil cup. I have to look at this every time I sit at my computer and frankly it's just plain ugly.

Here is my pencil cup in all it's polka-dotted glory.

I'll be heading to the craft room to straighten up a bit and to make some room for an overwhelming amount of fabric that I just purchased. I'm not complaining. Fabric makes me happy!

Have a nice day, y'all.

Aloha!

Potpourri Pocket Sachet


Hello, my sweet friends. This is a not-so-good picture of a potpourri pocket sachet. No matter how hard I tried, I just couldn't get a decent shot of it. Nothing new there, huh? LOL My photography skills haven't improved at all. Anyway, it can be filled with lavender buds or your favorite potpourri. The body of the pocket is made from fabric bonded to a lightweight stabilizer. It sports a velcro closure to allow easy refreshing of the potpourri. This is very simple and quick to create and would make a very cute bridal shower favor.

To answer a frequent question...Regretfully, I do not have any immediate plans to open an online shop to market my items. For now, it would be too overwhelming for me because I do local craft fairs here at home. It is an option that I will consider in the future. Exactly when, I do not know but be assured that you will be the first to know when it does happen. Thank you so much for asking.

I hope you all have a fabulous, craft-filled day!

Aloha!

Whimsical Butterfly


Sparkly and polka-dotted, a touch of whimsy that all little girls love. This cutie measures just under 5-inches and has been attached to a clothespin so that she can be securely pinned to almost anything. Wouldn't this make a cute decoration in a little girl's bedroom? How about as part of a curtain tie back? The possibilities are endless.

My sincere thank you to all of you who read my blog and especially to those who comment. Knowing how truly precious time is, I appreciate that you choose to drop by and see what I am up to.

Beach Tote


Every girl needs a summer bag to tote her towel and suntan lotion to the beach. The only thing missing is the cute polka dot bikini to go with it!
