Fancy Letters

So....completely out of my comfort zone....a friend taught me how she makes her fancy letters this week (thanks Lisa!!)...

They are VERY sparkly.

My favorite part has got to be the little butterfly on the 'G':

Pencil Case

I'm so thankful to be home!  My sewing space looks like a tornado hit it hard - so sad.  I cannot wait to get back in the groove.

We had a birthday party yesterday so I whipped up another pencil caddy, and embellished some of the fabric with embroidery...

Preeetttty butterflies.  Plus it sparkles, and what 5 year old girl doesn't like sparkly butterflies?

Another nice thing is that I'm pretty comfortable now putting zippers in bags like this.  No fear!
