Newer posts →. Mother’s Day Hobo. May 8, 2011. This is my favorite bag so far because I made it for my mom for Mother’s Day. I decided to make her something summery and I LOVE the way the shabby chic type of fabrics turned out together – so much that I kind of wanted to keep it…don’t worry, she has it and loves it too. This one is made using the same pattern as the Zebra Bag. I made previously, per her request, Simplicity 0483. Click to share on Twitter (Opens in new window). May 1, 2011. May 1, 2011.

Aqua Lined Summer Tote →. May 13, 2011. 8220;Every child is an artist. The problem is how to remain an artist once he grows up.” Pablo Picasso. So I’m a proud momma and today my baby learned to paint! Bean's Handprint Flower. In all seriousness, it’s so much fun to start creating little masterpieces with my little guy and I can’t wait to hang them all over the house. Besides, I think he just may be enjoying our special time together almost as much as I am. Click to share on Twitter (Opens in new window).

Author Archives: Pokie & Bean. August 24, 2011. I’ve loved matryoshka dolls for as long as I can remember. They’re just so cute with their tiny little Russian outfits and their even tinier little buddies that conveniently store inside. Years ago, when I started a new job, one … Continue reading →.

Matryoshka Wristlet |
https://pokieandbean.wordpress.com/2011/08/24/matryoshka-wristlet
August 24, 2011. Anywho, regular ole fabric stores don’t really carry anything like linen fabric covered in matryoshka dolls so I ventured off and found some on Etsy. To my dismay, it was only available in Japan and a bit pricey so I saved the seller as a favorite and that was that. Then one fateful day, a Christmas in June – Quite Unique. A daily deal site) featured the Etsy store This and That from Japan. And wouldn’t you know it, it was the fabric store I had wanted to order from. Yippee! You are comm...

Aqua Lined Summer Tote. Family Mission Statement →. June 2, 2011. I chose to do the handles in a lemon and cream striped linen fabric that I’ve been really wanting to use but since I wanted to see more than just the straps I expanded them on to part of the bag. The lining is a pumpkin orange satin shantung that is lined with flannel (a brilliant idea for those of us who think working with satin is akin to it’s spelling). My proudest moment of this big, however, is that is has. Real, grown up. Pastor Joe&...

The Big Mama Bag. My Little Picasso →. May 12, 2011. One of my first Etsy purchases was, no surprise, a purse! It’s a bunch of different fabrics that seem to clash but together made up an adorable bag. I found it at Kat Whitt’s store on Etsy (she’s closed now), but it was too pink for me so she let me choose my own fabrics and design how they’d be laid out and it turned out like this:.

Matryoshka Wristlet →. June 29, 2011. I haven’t been doing much sewing as of late as my focus has been more on reorganizing my house lately, which of course leads to necessary redecorating. I have been buying fabric so as soon as the inspiration hits me again I’m sure I’ll be off and running on a streak of new bags and wallets. Meanwhile, I found this fantastic wall decal at Joann’s for $5 and it so encompasses our goals for our family I can’t believe it. I just love it so I had to share! Sorry, your blo...

Maeve's Momma: Thoughts on Motherhood: Writing Progress
http://maevesmomma.blogspot.com/2015/08/writing-progress.html
Thursday, August 6, 2015. It used to be that Maeve could really only write the letters in her name, and when I asked her to try new ones, she would shove the paper back at me and ask me to write them instead. But she's gotten more adventurous about writing letters lately, and also about trying to spell things on her own. And the L E S for the rest of Please? And a pretty passable G for the beginning of Give. She was excited to show off how well she could write the letters of her godmother's name. Our 1 i...

Maeve's Momma: Thoughts on Motherhood: A Few Things I Like
http://maevesmomma.blogspot.com/2015/07/a-few-things-i-like.html
Tuesday, July 28, 2015. A Few Things I Like. Shall we not speak about yesterday? We shall not. It was. rough. It is over. Today I wanted to blog about a couple of products that I'm really happy I found. And no, no one is paying me to mention them, I promise. Also, why do I care about parabens and animal cruelty? Why not organic, or all-natural, or whatever? Well, let me put it this way. You know when your bottle of shampoo says "Dermatologist Tested"? That means that in a lab, someone squirted it into hu...
