Whole Wheat Apple Muffins *YUM*

Smitten Kitchen. Finding this site was the best thing that ever happened to my kitchen!
Seriously. Every recipe I've tried from this site has turned out delicious. It makes me feel so gourmet too! Caleb had 3 of these muffins before noon today. Haha, I did too.

Peace on Shirts, Good Will to Men

Here are a couple shirts I made for two of my sister-in-laws. The purple shirt is for Schae for her birthday... shhhhhh... It was originally a white V-neck from Forever 21 and this was my first experience with dye. Originally, I had thought that the peace sign would be crisper than this, but the hot water dye boiled off my stencil. I really like how the end result turned out.


This is the shirt I made for Rach, and it is about 3 months overdue. It was always yellow (I didn't dye this one). This type of shirt is so much fun to make, because you literally squirt paint in your hand and flick it! I got the idea off of www.craftster.org.

Applique tees for sweet girls

Here are a few gifts for three lovely 1 year olds... Gotta love Old Navy tees. The whale and giraffe I hand sewn onto the shirts. The elephant was the only one I machine-sewed and I'm not as happy with the stitching. But overall, I think they were cute and only $5 each!!

Aprons

Has anyone ever given a present to someone for Christmas and actually seen it in use before? Nailed it! Harmony just sent me pictures of the matching Father-Son aprons I sewed up for my nephew Mason and his daddy, Chris. I am soo happy with how they turned out, first time sewing with stripes and my machine doesn't always cooperate with heavier duty fabrics like denim. I have a picture of another set of Christmas gift aprons, I will try to upload that soon.
Nothing cuter than something tiny.

RU-DY!! RU-DY!! RU-DY!!

I was assigned to a learner today, so now I am officially a tutor. His name is Rudy, which automatically calls to mind the football movie from the 90s. I hope he doesn't look like my favorite little Goonie too, or else it will be really hard to not want to chant his name while he's struggling with pronunciation... RU-DY! RU-DY! RU-DY!
