Christmas in July

We made this for the snack table at church. I thought of making a bow out of bacon, but decided against it. It seemed kind of gross.

Purses made from old pants

This is a quick project that's pretty easy for kids to make. Take some old pants, cut them off right above the crotch. Turn them inside out and sew the bottom closed. Then use some material from the legs to sew on a strap. Then they can add buttons, ribbons, whatever to decorate. Heidi had a neat idea of sewing on a photo of her and her cousin.

Vanity

I always wanted to have a vanity, like the fancy people in the movies. I found this old beat-up one at a thrift store for cheap and painted it, and added some new hardware.

Another dress

This is the third dress I've made with this pattern and I've got some green fabric to make another one. I'm just in love with the style.
