Busy as a Bee

Whew.  Have I been a busy bee this week!  I knocked out 2 crayon rolls the first night I had my machine, and those are birthday gifts for my nieces.  Then on Tuesday, I made this

It's a reversible apron for my sister's BFF.  Tiff's birthday was last month, and Meg asked me to make something special for her.  I absolutely love this fabric.  I saw it in January at JoAnn's, before Megan even asked me to make anything for Tiff, and I KNEW it would be perfect for her.  You see, Megan bought Tiff a sweater for Christmas a few years ago that looked like it was black with pink polka dots.  If you looked really closely, the polka dots were actually skulls.  When I took the bolt to the cutting table, the lady there thought it was cute, and then noticed the skulls and flames.  I think she was a little freaked out surprised by it. But I LOVE how this turned out.  I can't wait to hear how Tiff likes it.

Then I made these for Tiff's girls (and how funny is it that she's getting an apron too, and doesn't know it???)

I love making kids's aprons!  They are so much fun, especially when you see them on their new owners.  As a bonus, here's The Munchkin and Gus-Gus in theirs.

My He-man

So The Munchkin just broke his first window.  I am sure there will be more to come, but still, it's a momentous day.  His intended victim - a fly.  His weapon of choice - his fist.

Nice, huh?

Apparently the fly was not traumatized by the event, because he returned to the scene of the alleged attack.

However, he wasn't counting on Daddy and the Attack of the Packing Tape.

Yep, I now have a fly (and all his guts) taped to my living room window.  Bet you're just green with envy (or is that nausea???), huh?

I love my life.
