Embroidered United States Map in Neutrals
A while ago, I said that I’d be doing four more of these embroidered United States map pillows for $75 each.

4H Embroidery Update
Time for another embroidery update! Or maybe downdate, because today I’m showing you a few of my past 4-H projects. First off is a quilt that I made. The patterns were from a mother and daughter set.

Black Denim Jacket Ethan Flip
We accepted Frances Suzanne’s challenge to flip the Ethan Shirt by Sis Boom. Of course, first of all we had to sew an unflipped version of the Ethan Shirt, but we’ll get to that another time. When we can get the boy convinced to show his face on a SKIRT blog! I knew I wantedContinue reading “Black Denim Jacket Ethan Flip”
