Our cutie patootie granddaughter, Lucy, turned two this month and I wanted to make her a few things for her birthday. There were so many cute iron ons, but several used lots of layers and, to be honest, I am still a newbie. I wanted something that would definitely turn out and wash well. Since she is two I thought "2 cute" would be fun. I grabbed some glitter iron ons that would match some ... [ Read More ]
T Shirt Tuesday #1: 13th Birthday Shirt
Our youngest son, and snappy model, Hayden turned 13 recently. He has LOVED helping come up with t shirt ideas over the past few months so I wanted to make him a special t shirt. Last year for his birthday we gave him a shirt that had "(the square root of 144) years old". He had a lot of fun wearing that shirt. Since that shirt didn't fit anymore... in more ways than one... I made him a new ... [ Read More ]

I had already purchased a black shirt because I was planning on a big pumpkin or ... [ Read More ]

Cricut Craft: Project Tote for Crocheters
Last time I was in a giant craft store picking up some yarn I decided to check out the Cricut section. HOLY COW! I couldn't believe all of the wonderful things available. There were bins of plain hats, bags and shirts to use with iron-ons. I found this perfect-size tote bag just screaming to go home with me. I knew I wanted to add a cute crochet saying so I asked in my facebook group for ... [ Read More ]
Cricut Easypress 2 First Try: We made a t shirt!
This is a sponsored conversation written by me on behalf of Cricut. The opinions and text are all mine. If I had known how cool the Easypress 2 machine is I would have tore into the box a lot sooner! Cricut sent two machines to me to review, the 9x9 and the 6x9. Once again, I was a little hesitant to jump right in, but just like the Cricut Maker, it was easy and fun. I wasn't sure what ...
