I have recently discovered fabric has life outside of Joann fabric store!! Sometimes I see things in the store and think you know I could make that but how do you find fabric that great? Well I found this blog, now listed on my blog list, called Sew Mama Sew. They have all kinds of great fabric in their store and through more research I found a local store called Sowing Sisters. My friend Kelly and I went to check it out on Saturday only to arrive just as they were closing! So disappointing! Anyway we went back the next day and got lots of great stuff! This year I am trying to make more of my Christmas presents partially to save money but also because I think there is something so much more meaningful about a gift when you know it was handmade. Here are a couple of pillows I just recovered tonight! These unfortunately came at the expense of getting grocery shopping done! Oh well there is always tomorrow for things like that right!? This fabric is by Joel Dewberry in case you were curious:) Amy Butler and Heather Bailey are a couple of other new fabric designers whose stuff is inspiring and beautiful! Check them out if you are interested.
This weekend we are off to Big Bear to relax with Kyle and Alissa! Oh Big Bear is wonderful I need it's quietness! It feels a little like being back in Oregon. Speaking of being back in Oregon, that is where we will be in exactly one week! My heart is so happy thinking about soaking in some much desired family time and some quality friend time! I need to get my hands on the little Klaire bear and kiss her cutie cheeks! Oh and I can't wait to see Annie's belly! I love watching my friends families grow and watching my girlfriends be and become mommies, it is beautiful! That's all for now! Good night all!
