Worked on my name tag for Sewing Summit Friday! I was happy to finish up the embroidery and fun little details. It has since been turned into the actual name tag, just need a pin for the back! :)

Pulled fabrics for a new tote bag today! Amanda informed me we both need new shopping bags for Sewing Summit! How could I resist the opportunity to make another bag?! Impossible! ;)

Will probably make another Jane Market Tote!

George wanted to test out the Finel heart bowl that arrived! I have always loved this bowl, and when I saw one online in less than perfect condition, but for only $10, I jumped! Up close there are lots of scratches in the hearts, but from afar it looks great! :)

  13. fab name tag! And thanks for the biscotti recipe - biscotti is my favorite thing to bake in the cooler weather and I love trying new flavors :) btw, if its not too much trouble, could you tell me what the top fabric in the 'stacked' photo is? those little ads for raw milk are great :)

  14. Ok, your name tag is genius. A handmade name tag... this should be obvious to me, but it was not. You know we're all going to want to make our own now. I hope you don't mind? That said, yours is absolutely perfect for YOU!

    Also, your striped sheets bundle really, really speaks to me.

  16. that heart bowl is just adorable, oh yeah and your bunny boy is cute too! he makes me giggle! So how are you adjusting to a new state? When I moved out of state it seriously took me almost a year to adjust, but by your pics, you seem to be adjusting well, having everything situated! I have lived in nebraska for 2 year and STILL have some boxes that are unpacked! hope you had a great labor day weekend!

    Lauren :)
