Gadget Hound
I have always, always been a total gadget hound. My iPhone is always in my pocket and I usually carry my Ipad around the house like it’s a baby that can’t be put down. I love the instant gratification that comes with these gadgets, I own books and songs in a matter of seconds. Love [...]
Photoshop Day!
Today I spent a big portion of the day working on this pretty pattern: I used elements from this book to create it. I cannot tell you how fun this book is, as a person who doesn’t do tons of graphic design work I use this book a lot. I feel that it captures [...]
2 Quilted Projects to Share
I have been an amazingly busy girl and have been enjoying every moment of it. Unfortunately, I can be lazy and for some reason dragging out the camera can be a HUGE chore. The pictures are my downfall. Ah well. I’ve been on a quilting kick as of late and wanted to share two projects. [...]
The Box of Dreams
About a few months ago, my Mom and I had a lovely girls day where we spent the day perusing craft stores. She’s a crafty girl like me and we both love to make things. One of our favorite stops is to a small store in St. Louis county called Red Lead. Red Lead specializes in [...]

I’ve been obsessed with cute matryoshkas for about a year now and I still can’t get enough of them. I hoard cute matryoshka fabric, ribbons and all sorts of various supplies and I just can’t bring myself to use them. A while back, I got my hands on an unfinished set of them and decided [...]
Obsessed with Flowers
I guess I’ve been obsessed with blooming flowers because everything in St. Louis (my hometown) is gray and freezing cold. As I write this it’s 12 degrees with a windchill of 4. BRRR! One of my other lovely Christmas presents from my parents was Martha Stewart’s Encyclopedia of Crafts which is a treasure trove of [...]

Mommy & Me Buttercup Bag
One of my good friends Laura just had her 30th birthday and her husband threw her a surprise party. She’s great at appreciating handmade items and I wanted to make something for her. She also has an adorable two year old daughter who needs some fun presents from me! Because I’m active in a [...]
My Quilt
Well, first of all I’m a better crafter than blogger. I think we all know that now and that’s a dig at my blogging skills not a compliment to my crafting skills. As of late, I have been obsessed with super cute crafting supplies from Japan. Thanks to the internet these have become available [...]
