I thought I'd check in and say hi! I have done lots of crafty things since I haven't been blogging. I figured I'd share a little of what I've been doing and check in.
I'm currently working on creating a large craft room in our unfinished basement, and when that's done I may pick up blogging again as I will have lots more room to spread out and have room to film, photograph, etc. No promises, but I may get back into posting when that finished in a couple months.
So way back for Easter I sewed my daughter a dress and used a machine to
do some embroidery on a shirt for my son. The dress came out SO
cute!!! My daughter was thrilled with it.
I have been volunteering at a rabbit shelter and made tons of things for a fundraiser they had in the spring. I made signs, spray painted little trophies for prizes, and used my Yudu along with some iron on transfers to make some cute shirts. Here's just a few photos. I'm not going to share everything I made cuz it's a little repetitive.
I decided to sew banners for my kids' birthdays so I don't have to keep making a new one each year. Lots of work, but nice results. Well... honestly I thought my daughter's came out nice. My son's banner doesn't sit very flat on the bottom and I'm pretty irked about it, but it happens.
Here's an outfit I created for my daugher's doll. It's one of the Our Generation dolls from Target. She LOVES it and it was SO much more affordable than American Girl. I LOVED making this outfit. What a great way to use up fabric left from other projects, and so much faster than sewing "real" clothes since inside details are less important.
Anyways. Just popping in. I do still check blogs and Youtube when I can, but I'm not logged in a lot of the time for commenting and such.
So, I'm still doing projects for sure. I'm really into my sewing lately.
Right now I am working on a stamp index that is VERY time consuming but will allow me to open a binder to a page of something specific like birthday sentiments and see all the sentiments from various sets that I have. I have also been stamping the sets on their own pages in alphabetical order, just like I store them so I can browse that way as well.
Have a wonderful, and very crafty day!

Hi Amber, I was just clearing out my email inbox and came across one from you, so I clicked on the link back to your blog. Nice to see that you posted in August. You are quite the seamstress! Your daughter's dress is adorable, and great embroidery on your son's shirt. You're very crafty and looks like you really are "staying crafty." I have slowed down in the past few months on posting. Life is just so busy, so it took a back seat. Hope to see you posting from time to time.
