Delicate Off-White Linen Pillow

I made this earlier this week, just now getting around to posting it. I just liked the fabric and it seemed to be wanting to be made into an accent pillow. I still have more of the fabric, but no more ideas of what to do with it. Anyway, I think it would be really sweet in a nursery, like on the rocking chair or something. I put it up in my Esty shop.

Ironing Board Custom Cover

My ironing board needed a makeover. I used a pattern that my friend Paula let me copy (she made it herself) and it worked out fabulously. Very easy to make. And this fabric goes quite nicely with my slate floors. You might recognize this fabric from the earrings I recently made, link here.

And as long as I'm in the laundry room, let me share with you one of my favorite things. When we built our house, we put a pass through door from the master closet to the laundry room. It's nestled in a shelf in the master closet and opens right over the counter in the laundry room where we keep our dirty laundry basket. No more dirty clothes in our closet waiting to be carted out for washing! You really should try and put one in your house, if it works, 'cause it's great! Here's the view from the closet side:

Apron Re-make

So I had this basic black apron from years ago, and I decided to spice it up a bit. I added a ruffle and gave it a new neck strap and side ties. Super easy. Total cost was about $2. I know it's not the greatest fabric, but I was too lazy to look for something better. If I get un-lazy I'll put a pretty pocket on the front later.

The Lunch Date Blouse GIVEAWAY!!!!

Ok, before you read this you have to promise to give it to me if you win it. A beautiful blouse by Kathleen Dougherty of Grosgrain. If I don't win it, I wonder if I could make something similar? If I did, I don't think I could give it away... Don't you think it looks so Anthropologie?

Ruffles and tuxedo shirts are in for women, but here's a tuxedo onesie for the little ones. Finished it up today. (And sorry for the not-so-great photos). I think it'd be real cute for a wedding. Tuxedo onsie is available in my Etsy store (size 0-3 months). Blue linen pinstripe fabric.
