Easter Project Completed

A few days after Easter I was roaming Hobby Lobby and saw the most adorable Easter fabric, on clearance. So I decided I would make myself an Easter wreath. I cut all of the stuff and then just got around to it while camping this last weekend. Great project to take camping because you can talk and tie!I took this up close shot so you could see the two inspiration fabrics. I love the little chickies! I bought some more fabric to maybe use it in a baby quilt for someone.

Originally the plan was to finish it right after Easter and still hang it on the door in May (still spring, you know), but now it is definitely June and totally summer, so I'll just have to hang onto it until next year. Oh well!

Happy Birthday, Susan!

So my friend Susan had a birthday over a month ago. And I'm just now getting to posting the pictures, sorry- blame school! I should be the most dutiful blogger now, I promise (until I go back to school). Her family had pictures taken last fall, so I made her a little album to post all of the pictures in easily and quickly. Here's how it turned out.

And who am I kidding, I don't have time or the patience to upload all of the pages, so I'll pick a few of my favorites to share. Basically the entire book was red, blue and tan. There was a page with the first letter for each of your children's photos and one for her and her honey.


Materials of choice for this project were the Cricut (I tried out the deep cut housing and blade, not too impressed), ribbon and paper already on hand (yippee!), cropadile, and chipboard.
