Towels

Baby towels are practical baby gifts but not always something I just die to go out and buy someone. However, I started thinking that a personalized towel would be a whole other ballgame! I recently needed a baby gift and thought I would try out the personalized the baby towels. Here's how they turned out....

Fabulous Friend Friday

I am shifting gears today with my Fabulous Friend! This friend's blog is not a craft blog but I just think this lady is Superwoman and I want y'all to see why.
This lady's name is Jennifer.

 She operates a Chick-fil-A with her husband and has three boys that keeps her completely busy with life. Okay, so you say, "Oh, that doesn't sound too bad!" Well, I want you to read just a normal day in the life of Jennifer on her blog and you will be thinking the same thing that I think....
SHE IS SUPERWOMAN!!!

To give you a little background she has a son who has cystic fibrosis
(For more information click here http://www.cff.org/)

She has a status line on her blog that shows whether they are in the hospital or not. It seems like there is always something going on with precious Brett and Jennifer NEVER slows down!! She never says, "I don't want to do this anymore!" She is one of the most selfless people I know. Her blog is great and if you want to be encouraged and humbled just take a look at it! I promise you won't look at life the same...

Sewing Blog #2

The sewing blog I want to share with you today is called

I think this is a great name because so many of us, including myself, start a project and as we begin to look further at what the project requires we are transported into some kind of trance leaving us just staring! This blog has some really great tutorials and tips on how to leave the staring trance behind and really start sewing. Take a look at it. You will be glad you did.
