Quilts

Making quilts is a passion I found long time ago. I remember a magazine I found at the local store in Italy where there were example of a log cabin quilts. We do not have quilt like these in Italy so I was fascinating with the images of this beautiful blue log cabin quilt. I was eighteen at that time but I wanted to make my own, so I started to collect the fabrics and started what was going to began one of my passions. These are few of them I made this month.

Headbands

Making headband is one of my passion and fortunately my girls like them too. I experimented for awhile until I got to the finish product with different material, shape and headbands. This is what I come up with. Headband are very easy accessories you can use to change a dress or just feel pretty. I wear them too sometimes they make me feel pretty.

Faux cupcakes

When my sister in law asked for a faux cupcakes for her birthday, I has no idea what they were. But thanks to google I did my research and found out some tutorial and some inspiration(I love google, it is an indispensable tool for learning). The first attempt did not go that well. I followed one of the tutorial but it turned out very heavy and I had to shipped it all the way to California. So I did the process all again with my own adjustment and this is the results. Now I only wish I wrote down my process just in case I will have to make more in the future.

Sherry present

Today I want to share with you pictures of the present I made for my mother in law-Sherry- for Christmas. I got the container at Wall mart, so I altered it using my xyron machine( it works so much better than just glue). And I cut all different pieces of paper and made tags so she can have all the material by hand to make some cards. She loves scrapbook and carmaking and I hope she will be able to use it. I also included an address stamp with her address from SU
