Love to Be Mine

Sweetwater's Label Crew for February; too cute!  I don't have many Valentine themed fabrics hanging around and what I do have wasn't enough so a trip to my LQS was in order.  Unfortunately, they too didn't have a big selection but I picked up 4 that coordinated and set off to work.

Over-sized mug rugs. Punk picked "Be Mine" so I'm left with "Love".  My heart has a bit of a straight edge at the top.  Not sure what happened there.  I'll be bringing it to work for the month of February. I have no idea what Punk is going to do with hers. I'm sure it will end up somewhere and I will rescue it and put it in my sewing room for safe keeping. The Label Crew project for March is another one I will be doing as soon as it comes out. It's featuring their newest line "Noteworthy". I can't wait to get it!

Enjoy your day!

Sweetwater Label Crew - October

Sweetwater's October Label Crew project was super quick so I finally broke down and made something.  I liked it so much, I made a second one for Punk.  Mine will be going on  my office desk with candy to share.

I modified the bag just a wee bit.  I didn't like how the handles were put on originally; they were sewn on after the fact.  So I did them the way I know how.  Much better.  And I added a little top-stitching and a button.

I've been trying to fit some sewing in here and there.  It's slow going.  I've been working on my Santa Sack swap November gift.  If I had 2 solid hours to work on it, I would be done.  HOPEFULLY I will have that this coming weekend. 

Work has been going good.  Challenging at times and then a piece of cake at other times.  But I've been enjoying it.

Sorry for the short post but we're headed out the door for Amelia's play date.

Enjoy the rest of the weekend!
