I almost forgot to remind you! Today is the last day that February’s Blocks 1 & 2 of the In Our Garden BOM will be available for free. If you haven’t had a chance to download those blocks be sure to head over to Sew Incrediby Crazy for all the details about where to do that. These are the blocks…
This week, I finally carved out the time to make February’s blocks for the In Our Garden BOM Blog Hop. Amy over at Sew Incredibly Crazy did a wonderful job designing Blocks 1 & 2. My month is June and let me tell you, Amy set the bar pretty high… not only for the detailed instructions and ease of construction…
It’s been a busy week here! Those of you who follow me on instagram @supermomnocape may have noticed that I’ve been attending weekly webinars hosted by Bonnie of Hobby to Hot and BYBC (Build Your Blog Conference). The webinars are pre-conference training leading up to the conference itself February 19 & 20th. I’m learning so much but figuring out how…
During 2015, that Reindeer and Snowman embroidery pictured below was the only one of the small embroideries that I started the year with that didn’t end up being finished into something by the end of the year.

Each year in the Santa Sack Swap, we are each allowed to choose if we receive a sack, a stocking or a tote.

So when I came across a beautiful owl while blog…
As it often does this time of year, the day got away from me yesterday and I didn’t get a chance to edit the photos of all the amazing gifts that I received from my lovely swap partner Debbie. I’ll post this one now and then sometime this evening I’ll post the gifts I made for her. I know it’s…
Oh yeah!! We finally get to show you what Sue made for each of us. Remember back in the spring when she showed you her plan to frame her Christmas Mouse Wall Hanging.

Today, I’m going to show you how to recover oven mitts and give them new life using pretty new fabric and contrasting bias tape.
