typing with one hand today. cute baby on my lap.
pillow made entirely by 2.5 in. scraps. my mom ironed scraps while i cut squares. my mom, if you haven’t gathered, is super nice like that. tutorial is genius. gave this to a very sweet friend who always rolls out the red carpet for us when we visit nyc. it was well received. phew. handmade gifting can be stressful. {xoxo y un gran bezaso, b. was so great, as always, to see you.}
tote bag made by me. my “pattern,” if you’d call it that. logo tag is olivia’s. i think the tag makes the bag look more professional. and i get to carry around a tiny piece of olivia’s artwork which leads to conversations in which i can tell people how great she is. schlepped this bag all around new york. a great size because it fit my normal purse stuff plus my semi-bulky camera. with room for treasures from shopping excursions. {muji was my one real shopping treat this time.} print fabric is amy butler august fields. a gift from city auntie. linen is from joann’s. a gift from adventure auntie. felt so good to make something for me from fabric that was given to me.
boy do i love new york. we are so lucky to be able to visit that incredible city.
apple cyder 
both are awesome! glad you had a great trip!
que preciosidad, la verdad es que a mi sí que me estresaría hacer patchwork con mis niños correteando alrededor; la nena cumplió cinco años y el niño siete y están imposibles de trastes jeje, pero adorables, tú aprovecha mientras que la niña es tan pequeña ; ) para hacer estas maravillas!
Bueno, que bonito te ha quedado todo, una maravillosa combinación de telas y la etiqueta que bien queda. Te paso la dirección de tu compatriota por si alguien se anima y le apetece hacerlas : http://www.etsy.com/shop_sold.php?user_id=6014301

Wow, I loooove that cushion, might have to bookmark that tutorial.
I love them both! What a great use of scraps.
That pillow makes me swoon – love it so much! Love the texture of it too, it looks as though it was woven. Your bag is fab too, and I love the tag. I was thinking about tags the other day, and how they just add something special to a garment or bag. I don’t mean brand tags, but something thoughtful and beautiful.
i LOVE both and am so excited to learn to sew!
i’m going to nyc in october, by myself, to shop. muji is at the
top of my list. wish i lived closer to it! wait, no I don’t – i would be so poor…
That pillow tute is OUTSTANDING – my scrap collection is taking over my craft room…. Christmas presents here I come!!!!
