According to JoAnn Fabrics, March is "Craft Month" so I decided to take full advantage of the coupons and the excuse to make lots of fun stuff. Last week I started out by taking Jason's "too short pajama pants" and turning them into pajama shorts. His pants get short on him really fast and it drives me crazy to see him walking around the house in flooders. I know I am OCD about some things, give me a break. They actually turned out really good and are the perfect length. They came in real handy when Jefferson was sick. In an hour time span Jason went through about three pair. I also turned one of my "too short pants" into to crop pants for this summer. It was super easy and took no time at all.

I started these last week, but finished them today. I took a bunch of my extra fabric and made two reversible half aprons. They are also pretty easy and can be finished in an hour each. I now have a lot less fabric scrapes which makes me happy because now I can go buy really pretty new fabric.

The flip side
Next up on my list are these really cute fleece monsters that I saw in the JoAnn advertisment. I am going to make it for Jefferson's birthday which is coming up in a few weeks. I also want to sew new pillows for the couches, paint various letter "T's" that I have collected to hang in the kitchen, tweek our Europe pictures so I can finally hand them in the office, finish putting together the cook book that I started, and many more things. We'll see how many things I will actually get done. Wish me luck!
What cute things are you making?
Wow! You're amazing Kara! Good luck with all of your projects, the ones you've already done look great. Unfortunately, I just don't think I'm capable of making cute things!
ReplyDeleteGood job on your crafts Kara, hope Jefferson is feeling better, and happy 30th b-day Jason, does it feel different? I'll be turning the big 30 at the end of the year.
