Chritsmas Onsie Skirt

A few years ago I embellished a bunch of onesies with Christmas trees and have kept them in a box under my craft table.  I was trying to think of a gift for a friend who is having a girl later in the summer and for some reason thought of putting a skirt on one of them.  The skirt part is made from an old T-shirt.  I love the way it turned out!

Denim and Roses Skirt

   
I just love how this skirt turned out.  I made it from an old pair of Z's jeans that had holes in the knees.  I love the roses and hearts print of the fabric and the way the ruffle turned out at the bottom.

Zach's Class Gift

I had fun working on this project for Z's teacher.  I wasn't sure what the end product was going to be when I started, but I'm very happy with the way it turned out!  The kids in his class signed a piece of canvas, morning Kindergarten on one side and afternoon on the other.  I stitched over their names and used the panels as the sides of a tote bag.  The bag is lined with very cute ABC fabric and it is a good size to hold tons of books!

My first post

It's hard to know what to write in the first post of a new blog.  I've been wanting to start a blog about the things I enjoy making for a while now.  I love reading many different craft blogs and trying the ideas I find out there.  I don't know if anyone will find inspiration from what I post here, but you never know!

The name of my blog comes from my youngest, who is now 2 1/2 years old.  His favorite food is macaroni and cheese but he calls it "mac-and-roni and cheese."
