• Keeping It Simple - Quick and Easy Monogrammed Kindle Cozy

  My friend received one of the new smaller Kindles for Mother's Day. She loves crafty things but has little time right now and she just couldn't bring herself to pay the price for the one she liked.

• A Pretty Felt Playhouse -Part 2

  Finished! And with a little time to spare. We decided to just button down the sides instead of sewing them. It will make removing it from the table and folding it up for storage a little easier. Kate got to see it during the final fitting since she is...

• Going Green - Recycle a T-shirt

  A couple of weeks ago, when we were out and about, my oldest granddaughter saw some college girls sporting wide, stretchy headbands with their monograms embroidered on them. Of course, since she thinks that anything the teens do is "way cool"...

• Gotta Love a Baked Potato

  For several years I have seen and heard about bags made to bake potatoes in the microwave. They are touted to produce fluffy, moist baked potatoes. So when I had all the cotton stuff out to make the tortilla warmer I decided to make one and see. Hey,...

• Keeping It Simple - Owls Are In

  I know that I have told you about all the babies that are on their way. And their mother's are now doing the decorating.

• Keeping It Simple - Quick Wristlet Just In Time for Spring

  Wristlets are great if you have lots of other stuff to haul around (like kids and diaper bags and laptops...) and don't want the extra weight of a purse. But after a hard winter the ones we have been using look pretty bad so I decided to surprise...

• Keeping It Simple - Heart Flowers, Burpies and Nursing Covers

  Yes, I know - I do lots of baby stuff. I can't help it - my girls and all their friends are at that age and baby things are part of our everyday conversations. And baby items are fun to make.

• Keeping It Simple - Embroidered Boxes for Trinkets and Gift Cards

  Summer is here to stay I think. The vegetable garden that I planted in April has started to produce... I have little green tomatoes on each and every plant. We will soon be able to pick the first zucchini and I think there will be lots more coming on...

• Keeping It Simple - Fruity Towels & Coasters and Flourless Brownies too

  Hello, hello, are you still there? You didn't blow away did you? This is currently a common greeting in our circle of friends.
