Pinned it, Made it! Monday










  My Pinned it, Made it! project is one Kaitlyn and I both worked on. A friend she has known since she was in grade school is getting married and invited us to her bridal shower. She looked up the colors her friend picked out on a gift registry and went from there. Kaitlyn sewed this cute potholder, she pinned this tutorial on pinterest but since our printer is out of ink, she free handed it. I made two tea towels-- I looked for inspiration on pinterest but didn't find exactly what I wanted so I went with just a strip across one towel and three circles (cut to fray a little) sewed together with a button to match. I also made the towels from muslin, I used a tea towel I had on hand to get a good size. We also threw in a cookbook for the bride. It was a fun time, I've known the bride to be's mom for years and use to work with the grandma and great aunt.So it was nice catching up with them.




I also have another project to share. I started this in December of 2011, I was making an ear warmer for Kaitlyn and had it all finished last year except for the button. So finally I was able to fit in to her head and get the button sewed on. Yay for finished projects!!!

Oh I love that pot holder, Allison! Love that patchwork look. I'd hate to mess it up...it's so pretty!

Cute ear wrap too!
