Homemade Nutter Butters

1/30/2014

0 Comments

 
I'll keep this short and sweet...literally...last night Ryan and I had a hankering for something sweet but we didn't want to go out in the rain to get something.  I of course went to my Pinterest board to see if I could find a recipe that I already had all the ingredients for.  I found this recipe for "homemade nutter butters" with peanut butter oatmeal cookies and a sweet peanut butter filling.  They were so quick and easy to make that I forgot to take any pics...and then they got gobbled up crazy fast!  Click the pick to check out the recipe (note: it makes 48 little sandwiches, i cut it in four to just make a dozen).  I'll be making these again soon!

A Winter Wonderland!

Sorry about the break in posting but we were gone for about a week on an awesome ski trip!  Our friends Nate & Kayla and Rob & Kristen convinced us to plan a ski trip out in Colorado.  The trip was partly for Kayla's birthday and partly just to get in at least a couple more friends' trips before everyone has kids or gets too busy.

Bianca's Quilt Pt 4 - Quilt Back

Unlike a standard tshirt quilt, Bianca's quilt back is made up of additional tshirts!  It's basically two quilt tops instead of a top and a back.

My Birthday Present, Pt 2

1/15/2014

0 Comments

 
You may recall that for my birthday last April, Ryan promised to build me a kitchen island that I had designed and sketched up.  He made a some good progress over the summer but he still had quite a ways to go.  This past weekend he got some more done.  He started by adding feet to the bottom of the island!

Bianca's Quilt Pt 3 - Piecing the Top

1/4/2014

0 Comments

 
Between running out of interfacing, finishing up previous orders and family/holiday travel, I didn't get much time in December to work on Bianca's quilt top.  Last time I posted, I was ironing on all the interfacing.  Since then, I was able to finish the interfacing and piece/sew together all the shirts in the quilt top!

Happy New Years

I know...I know...the year just barely started and I'm already behind, LOL.  Even though I wasn't able to blog over the past week or so, I still wanted to do my 2013 in review post.  My sewing goal for 2013 was to complete 20 quilts which was a little too ambitious, LOL.  But I did finish 10 quilts plus numerous embroidery projects.  I think a more reasonable goal for 2014 would be 12 quilts (one per month).
