Couch Pillows

After much anticipation (here, at our house) we finally have a start to new couch pillows!
Two down. Two to go.



I wanted a scrappy look... I think I got that.


I did the backs like this so I can switch these puppies out as my mood changes... err... maybe not quite that often!

Ta Da!

Another Rag Quilt

This little number was a baby gift. I always try to make something as a gift, and this particular day, I was feeling the need to make a rag quilt!

The fabric was all scraps of flannel I had.
I kind of like the random mismatched squares.

A-Line Skirt

Here are some skirts I made using this super-easy, no pattern tutorial I found here!


2x4 Pumpkins

I saw this tutorial here which linked me to the original post, here! This was a great project for all of our random scraps and cull lumber pieces!

I asked the hubs to cut the wood for me and he came up with two sets that look like this one below... So, I gave one away. haha! 12 pumpkins would have been a little much. He also made the grooves for my with our table saw. Yay for hubbies!

We have 2x4s and 2x6s cut in 8,6, and 4 inch tall pieces.
I went back and cut the 8inch 2x4 one in half and made 2, 4 inch pumpkins and gifted those out as well. As of right now, the 8inch 2x6 is still sitting on my kitchen island. I can't decide if I want a super tall pumpkin, 2 short pumpkins, a white pumpkin, or no more pumpkins.
Oh.. the brain of a crafter.


And here is the finished project!
Well, maybe I need some more raffia. :)
