Hap' Beefo


An ipod cozy. Or phone cozy. Or camera cozy. Or...? It keeps anything you like cozy, really.

For a guy who is a big fan of fungi. Vintage fabric. Tutorial at Sew Mama Sew.

Second verse same as the first


For another darling girl who turns one-year-old this very week.

Fabric from JoAnn's, pattern is (again) McCall's 4814.

A birthday gown


A sweet girl turning two years old just needs a new dress, right? This dress is from a pattern that runs very large, I've learned. So instead of a dress, we decided this is actually a gown. Maybe it will fit by her next birthday.

Fabric from JoAnn's, displayed on my new favorite item from The Small Object.

The best part in my book? The hand-embroidered clothing label. There will be more of these in my future.

Tag, you're it

I was tagged by Monica! The challenge is this:
  • Post the 6th picture in your 6th folder.
  • Post that picture on your blog along with the story that goes with it.
  • Tag 6 other people that you know or you don't and challenge them to do the same. Let them know in your blog or by email that they've been tagged.
Well, I have to post two.

Taken literally, if you open the "My Pictures" folder and go to the 6th picture in the 6th folder, you see this picture of Bill Clinton. He was campaigning for Hillary Clinton at Redwood Acres in Eureka. Mike took this photo as I was not able to camp out overnight in order to get in. Much sadness about that.

If you open my Crafts folder specifically, in the 6th folder you'll find this Christmas stocking is the 6th picture. Made for Mike, blogged here.

Now I'm tagging: Hot Air, Jessicurl, McFarland Designs, House of Sand and Fog, Rickstrew Ranch, The Quad Shot. Will you play along?
