Interchangeable Suspenders (ruffled, plain, and bows)

  Okay, first of all……..I love all of the votes that came in for the ‘Next Project Idea’ poll.  The project winner is definitely the Fabric Storage Cubes.  And I will come up with something and will share how I made them here in a week or so.  However, so many of you wanted the […]

Okay, time to vote on the NEXT PROJECT IDEA!!

  Wow.  Thank you again and again for chiming in with your project ideas (here).            There were so many rockin’ ideas.  And so many that I would never have thought so many were interested in.  Crazy!  So thank you! :)    But, like explained, I had to narrow down the […]

What do YOU want to make?

  I get requests to make specific things pretty often. And I add all of these ideas to a list. (So, thank you.)   Sometimes the things I blog about are ideas from you.  Sometimes they come from things I’ve seen.  And sometimes it’s something I’ve dreamed up.  And many times, I realize that I […]
