I've been sewing. I know. Laugh it up. It IS pretty darn funny.
For those of you who don't know me and are asking, "Why is it funny?", you should ask my high school home ec teacher. Awful! I was AWFUL at sewing. My square pillow looked like a zig zag on one side and a half moon on the other. Not kidding.
However, about a year ago I decided to try again and recently, a lady from church let me borrow her machine so that I could make her a Nook cover. This is a big deal! I made one for myself, but it was with mom's help AND I had a pattern for MY Nook (Nook Color). She has a Nook SimpleTouch - not.the.same.size. So, I made a new pattern and HOLY COW - it worked!
See?
I know, right?!?!?!?!
I like hers much better than mine. I did a few things differently and it worked better.
I also made a passport cover:
I'm gettin' crafty I tell ya!
I am going to try to make more passport covers and checkbook covers to sell on Etsy. What else can I make?
Oh, I've also been playing with my Silhouette CAMEO. A couple of months ago, I sent a picture of an apron to my friend, Casey (fabulous chef!). However, it was WAY too expensive, out of stock and in an ugly color. So, I made one for her:
And by the way - I am IN LOVE with my CAMEO! More projects coming soon.
