1st Attempt at Decorative Edge on a Burp Cloth

I may eventually get to adding the measurements and instructions for this but for now...only pics. I have more important things to do. Like hanging with my little one.

Cheesecake Attempt

I've made several goodies in my life but somehow I've never made cheesecake. I called my good friend Suzanne and told her that I needed her recipe. (She used to own a bakery in DC and they specialized in cheesecakes.) She spouted the recipe off the top of her head. I think she has made it a few times. The best advice she gave me was when adding the eggs one at a time not to beat them too much, otherwise the cheesecake will be more cake-like than creamy. Just incorporate the egg.

I decided to make muffin sized cheesecakes and then mini-muffin sized cheesecakes. Dan and I agree the mini are perfect for popping. Cheesecake is rich and the mini was a perfect size to appease our sweet tooth's.

Market Bag

I started this project a couple of weeks ago and I finally pulled it out and finished it. One more incomplete project done. I have never made a reversible bag so I thought I'd start with this simple market bag.

Bird Onesie

I found a cute bird on a shirt and wanted to try duplicate it on a onesie. I think I picked a design with too many curves. I am tempted to pick out the stitching and try again but... that would be stupid. Who cares if the stitching isn't even right? Hmmm... I may redo this one. The pattern is too cute not to get the edging perfect. It sure took a while to do it the first time though.

My friend did a great tutorial on appliques here.

Hobo Bag

I was needing a creative outlet the other day and the best fix is usually sewing an easy bag. I like bags because they are something I actually use and can be completed within a few hours.

Fabric Book Marks

I'm teaching a lesson in RS on scripture study this Sunday. I decided to copy my friend Danielle's idea for fabric book marks here.

Measurements: Roughly 2 1/8" X 6 1/8"

Rocket Pops

I attempted to make Cupcake pops, as seen on Bakerella. However, my cookie cutter was not small enough so I just made cake pops. Check out cake pops here.

We're invited to a Fourth of July BBQ and these are going with us.
