Something for ME!

Well the house actually, but that counts, right? I was reading some blogs this morning and stumbled upon this great Patchwork Plastic Bag Holder tutorial over at Retro Mama. Tutorial is originally from Saidos da Concha but Retro Mama throws in some nice helpful tips.



Now, I know your wondering, you don't really still use those things do you? And I can happily so no, not usually but there are the times that I forget my Chico Bags and have to use plastic. Or ya know, the hubby forgets. So I do end up using them for big messes that require on the spot garbage pick-up or in the bathroom trash cans.

Anyway, back to the tut. I'm not usually one to do patchwork because that takes time and I like quick stuff but I decided to give this a go and it turned out pretty good. Just don't look too close at my quilting.... seriously. I used a couple different prints. I'm not sure of all the specific names but they are from Cosmo Cricket, Michael Miller, and Amy Butler.

So get busy and go make yourself one!

Finally Fall

It's finally fall! Well, it seems to be for the time being here in NC. It seems like the weather is just so crazy sometimes that one day we are in the 90's and the the next the 70's. It seems like for now and we are in the low 70's and we are having those cool mornings and evenings. Fall seems to be the time when we do a lot of family activities together. We enjoy going to the farmers market, pumpkin patch and this past weekend, the zoo! The temperature was just right and the kids had a blast! So tell me, how do you spend your fall days?
