Getting my crafty on...again!

For Valentine's Day I made zippered pouches for Judah and Samuel to keep their treasures in. This tutorial from MADE was super easy to follow and understand. Along with appliqued t-shirts for each of the boys.



The boys loved their zippered pouches and they actually worked(!), so I made one for myself with ruffles.



I see lots more of these in my future with lots of different embellishments.

I'm trying to find some more time for sewing. I haven't sewn anything in over a week. Between homeschool, nursing a baby, feeding my family, laundry, dishes, and trying to keep my house somewhat clean it's hard to find a spare moment. At night when the kids are in bed I am exhausted myself. Most days are ended with Eric, Finley, and I on the couch watching The Office, 24, Lost, or Heroes. I'm sure many of you know what I mean!

As I was taking these pictures Silas came up to me saying, "cheese!" Sorry that it's blurry. I was trying not to use my flash and after one picture Silas was done.




*Sorry if you have this post twice. I've been blogging and scheduling them to post for later lately. Seems to work well with the time management! :)
