I decided to make Bailey's Valentines for day care this year, instead of just buying a box of cards that will just be thrown away. I wanted to make something that can be USED and not just wasted. I got the idea off of Pinterest that came from this site.
I am pretty happy with how they came out, hope everyone else thinks so too. :)
I am a wife, mom, and teacher who has never been very creative. I am finding a new love for creating things; from using paints to food. I have created this blog to show my journey to being a more crafty Mama!

The start of my sewing adventures!
With my Christmas money from our generous parents, I decided to buy myself my first sewing machine. I used to take classes when I was younger, but never had a sewing machine at home. Sewing is something I have always wanted to do, but was a bit intimidated. I am so excited about my new hobby now! I am starting off easy because I still have to work on sewing straight lines and cutting straight. For some reason measuring and cutting is an issue with me, I need to get some better tools.
A bean bag for Bailey! She loves it, going to make her some more.
While searching on Pinterest I found some cute ideas for sewing projects. I decided to make a diaper/wipe holder that can also be used as a changing pad. I went to the Walmart up the street, got this fabric, and went to down. I followed this tutorial.

I love how there is a separate side pocket for wipes.
Little crooked, but I am learning!
