Today we have an EASY color blocked skirt tutorial for you! Actually we've shared this tutorial with you once before but back then we called it the "Melon Blocked Skirt". Remember this? Since then I don't know how many of these exact same skirts I've made. I loved them then and I love them now. The original skirt was loved to pieces and no longer fits either of my girls. But Grace wears this neon and white one ALL THE TIME. As you can see by the photographs the skirt has seen some ... View the Post
The Art of Homemaking: Like Mother Like Daughter
Like mother...like daughter On Mother's Day I found this picture of Grace shoved under a pile of books on the table. When I asked her what it was she grabbed it out of my hands and said it wasn't for me. But why? Who is it for? No one!!! (And she started to cry.) After some time on my lap and some rocking in the rocking chair she told me all about it: In her class on Friday they took pictures of themselves to give to their moms for Mother's Day and she RUINED her picture. RUINED ... View the Post
Saturday Sewing at Simple Simon and Company Linky Party #2
Hello Ladies! Welcome to our Saturday Sewing at Simple Simon and Company Linky Party #2. (Hooray for week two!) As we said last week this month marks our 4th blog birthday and to celebrate we decided to throw a year long party that you are all invited to. Seriously...what could be more fun than to invite you all over to our place once a week to talk sewing? (Nothing...unless it was meeting all together in person.) In my excitement last week I forgot about setting some party rules. So we ... View the Post
Quilt Block Pocket Tutorial
Today I have a Quilt Block Pocket Tutorial to share with you. I posted it awhile back over at the Moda Bake Shop but today I'm brining it home. (I love this idea and have been making quilt block pockets like a crazy person ever since posting it!) ***** If you are anything like me after you finish a quilt you end up with a few orphaned quilt blocks...and then you don't have the heart to throw them out...so you keep them...and they wait for another chance to shine. Well, recently I found ... View the Post
I Need Your Help about a DIY Goodbye…
Right now I'm feeling really torn. For the next three days I am locking myself inside and going through my house to get rid of items that we don't need. It's time to lighten the load...by tons. I can feel it and my husband and kids can feel it. We just have too much stuff. (Seriously...I have stuff coming out my ears...it's time to do some real soul searching and, like the song says...."Let it go!") And while I could (and probably should) write an entire post about this process and how ... View the Post
Saturday Sewing at Simple Simon Linky Party
Four years ago this month Elizabeth and I decided to try an experiment. We decided that every week day for a month we would try to post a different project on my Simple Simon and Company blog (something used mainly for craft fairs) and see what would happen. At the time we weren't even sure if we could come up with projects for 20 whole days but we wanted to try. So thus it began....and after 4 years not only haven't we run out of projects but we can't stop thinking of more!!! (Really...like ... View the Post
