Drawstring Puzzle Bags

While it is later then I wanted, here is the finished project from the earlier sneak peek.

A Geeky Studio Space

With the revamp of the playroom, you can read about it here. I moved onto the other half of the room known as my studio space. I think I now have it the way  I want it. It's not perfect, but it will work for the next four years of this posting.

Our little Super Hero turn's 6!

Well the weekend of the party has arrived. You'll remember the post creating the Super Hero invite here.  Well that was only the beginning of my creative ideas for this birthday.

My double handle "kidlet"

Well, I finally managed to sit down and be creative! I stumbled upon Jennifer's website JCasa *handmade and her amazing tutorial for her affectional named "kidlet's this tutorial by far has been one of the easiest, well laid out tutorials I have ever used! Plus, for a visual learner, the picture's throughout were icing on the cake.

The first one I made, I made more or less following the exact pattern. I did goof on the placement of the pocket, but all in all I think that it turned out great.




















On the next couple, which I made some changes, I added a second handle and through some trial and error, mostly error, I got the placement and enough stiching to hold the handles so that they didn't pull out from the finished bag. I blame this solely on my very novice sewing skills.


I need to make a couple more for upcoming birthdays, but I just love them.

I have been busy

Hopefully will be posting tomorrow what I have been up and into. Needless to say my last sewing project resulted in the demise of my sewing machine and with the project half-way completed and the party the next day I was forced to buy a sewing machine at Walmart...more on that later.

Back to the grind while the little one is asleep...
