Last Friday Night...


Hahahaha!  So, um no.  This is NOT what I did last {friday} night.  Waaayyyyy too conservative for that.

But, what I did do last night was join in the 

Handmade by Heidi


And it was great!  We're taking the Rowdy Bunch on another road trip next week.  We're headed to the Durango & Silverton Narrow Gauge Railroad. And we're absolutely OUT. OF. OUR. MINDS. camping.
Which means we need pillows. And if you haven't ever been camping with boys,get down on your knees and say a small prayer of thanks,  let me tell you, nothing {NOTHING} comes back clean.  So I didn't want to run the risk of messing up pillowcases that went with any of our sheet sets.  So I did what any other crafty Mama would do....



I made them new pillowcases for our trip.  And of course I had to put initials on them so there's no fighting over who has "MY" pillow. *sigh*


I had a lot of fun with these, and the boys have already claimed them for their pillows right now.  I guess that's at least one more load of laundry I have to do now before we leave.  Swell.

Some fun stuff!

It's been awhile since I've had a chance to join Bobbi and Heidi for a

Handmade by Heidi

but I am making plans for this one! I have a few (ha! if you could only see my list!) things I'd like to work on.  Most are gifts, some for birthdays, some for Christmas, and some just because.

A few of those projects would be made sew SO much easier with a Go! Baby.  You'd like one, too, you say?!?!  Well lucky for us, there are TWO giveaways going on right now for them!
Its Sew Kiki has one up for grabs {closes June 20th}
and so does
Samelia's Mum {closes June 26th}.
Accuquilt is also including 3 die of your choice with each Go! Baby! I know which ones I need want.

Also, Carolyn at just one more stitch has a giveaway that is sure to make you swoon!  Jelly rolls and gift certificates from Shabby Fabrics.  So, if you'd like to lessen my chances of winning a chance at these great prizes, what are you waiting for?
