Lavender Bath Bombs

I took a break from quilting this weekend to make some bath bombs. I love a good bath bomb in my bath, but sometimes have a hard time finding the kind I like: moisturizing and relaxing. I used this recipe from the Soap Queen blog to make lavender clay bath bombs. I ordered everything form…

Sunday Stash

This is actually my first Sunday Stash. I don’t normally do one because I accumulate fabric at odd intervals. But I was in Florida last week and got to visit the most wonderful quilt store: Wandering Stitches. Sadly (for my checkbook, not them) I will now have to visit them every time I’m in the…

Casual Cotton Coco Dress

Crazy 9 Patch Quilt

A zipper bag for workshops

This is just a fun project I decided to share. I needed a little zipper bag to organize some of my dance stuff (ballet shoes, knee pads, snacks, etc) that I use less frequently in my dance bag so they weren’t floating around making it hard to find the things I do use frequently. I…
