Favorite Thing About School = LUNCH!

This little bag definitely adds to the excitement of lunch...who doesn't like a cute handmade bag to accompany good food?

This is the outside

and for the first time I made a reversible bag. Here is the inside...on the outside =D

So two years ago we were...

Last Sunday made it two years that Taylor and me have been together. Saturday and Sunday all day we were saying "soooooo two years ago we were..." things like emailing each other, eating at subway, and talking kept coming up. It was funny to hear the things he remembered ( he even remembered what I was wearing when we saw each other the week before we got together!)

Here are a couple recent cute pictures that were taken of us!

Also I recently got my senior pictures taken! There are way too many to chose from to here are some of my favorites!

Here is a funny picture too. A week or two ago we had REALLY hot weather, I felt real bad for my girls so I brought them out some ice for their water and to just snack on, they loved it!

Hope you all are keeping cool this summer!

Fresh Eggs!

Last Sunday I got my first egg! And everyday since then she has given me an egg. It surprises me how one hen can lay different shades of eggs! Here are my first two eggs!

They made really good scrambled eggs!

Projects!

Waaaay too many ideas have been going through my head lately, so I try to remember them and make them or write them down real quick before I forget! Here are some of the results of my spare time lately...

This is called "The Lilly Apron" everyone should have at least one. I really feel bad for my projects..my photography skills SUCK! I made this one for myself so I could fit in with my chickens while feeding them or tiding up the coop.

If you close one eye and squint the open one, you can see the really cute chicken feet stitch design across the top.

Your thinking "she just said her photography skills are bad" Guess what I didn't even take this picture, I stole it off the Internet, but isn't it adorable??

Along with bad photography skills I also suffer from "not being able to remember to take a picture" I made two of these tops for the prettiest little girls, but after this picture I added lace on one and buttons on the other...Do you think I remembered to take a picture?? Maybe I can convince the girls to be models for a few minutes...

This is one of my first attempts to make an apron pin, I have made a few other designs but I could only find this one when it came time to snap-a-shot. I made some feed sack aprons and had just enough pieces left to make this! I'm thinking maybe it needs some more pizazz...any ideas??

My Little Chickities

I would like to introduce you to the newest addition to the family; Henrietta, Alice, and Grace.

Henrietta (Red) and Alice (White)

Grace (Black and White)

And here is my Pain-In-The-Butt dog trying to figure out what the heck is in his yard. But he is real cute so I cant be mad at him too long.

Sorry for the bad picture quality (bad phone camera and sunshine don't add up to an awesome picture)

Q: What day do chickens hate the most

A: Fry-days!

Yay its Friday, I get the whole weekend to sew and hopefully cute-en up the chicken coop, have an Egg-selent weekend!

Help!

Like I said in my post below I have been obsessed with feed sack projects, well I got more to do more crafts, but i wanted to fix a small mistake. How should I wash the pieces? It seems like the color fades a little bit after washing, and I was wondering if any of you know how to do it "correctly" Thank you for the help. Here is last nights project!

The bag says Kitchen Queen and is from a Mill (used to be mill) about an hour away!

Here is the inside, I love the pocket! And ya, those are my little piggies :O)

Mapron- Man Apron

Feed Sacks have been a huge part in my projects lately, from bags to apron to signs, I cant get away from them!

Here is the mapron

The man-apron is on the left. Minus the frills add some patches, and put an "M" in front of Apron, and there ya go you have a Mapron.

No your head just didnt turn left, its my computer, no matter what I do the dang thing wont turn clockwise! Anyways this is my bag...

Fathers Day is coming up, take my idea, Daddy's will love it. I used some scrap material off a feed sack, It was kinda difficult to work with (stitching wise) but it turned out more cute than in the picture!

Two more days of school YIPPEEE!!
