Pillows for Mr. and Mrs.

My sister Chan commissioned me to make a wedding gift for her friends Kara and Ryan, who are getting married this weekend in Colorado. I spent Sunday afternoon sewing together a couple of shirt pillows (one using a men's white tuxedo shirt, and the other a women's lavender ruffled shirt.) The hang tags and card were made using rubber stamps by Hero Arts. A big congratulations to the couple!

The Sketchbook Project

I signed up for this project yesterday after I saw it over on Gennine's blog. I can't wait to get my sketchbook in the mail! What's exciting about this whole thing is that the tour will be stopping San Francisco so I'll get to see all of the books in person! If you are interested, there is still time to join the fun.

It's Pouring!

Last night I finished up the remaining raindrop dolls I started last week. Some turned out better than others (a couple are a bit lopsided). I guess we're not perfect and neither are raindrops! I was happy to use up most of the scraps leftover from my shirt pillows. Now I just need to give them all names...

A Little Owl Love for Miss June Adele

I made a little sleepy owl pillow for my friend Ruby's newborn daughter June Adele. She's so adorable (do you see her in the birth announcement in the photos above?) On Saturday, I drove up to Healdsburg and we spent the day catching up (we haven't seen each other in 3 years!). It was a perfect Saturday afternoon.

Thank You

Thank you everyone for stopping by my blog on the alphabet walk. I enjoyed reading all your lovely comments! And a big thank you to Piper for putting it all together!
