I've been busy over here....
and giving my old sewing basket a quick makeover.....
here's what I started with....a sentimental sewing basket given to me by my mother....and all it need was some primer, white spray paint and some French General fabric....and a bit of twine for good measure....love it.
And I've also been busy updating my website and etsy with these new finds....
green kitchen scale....





You've been a busy gal, Andrea! I LOVE the napkins and table runner you sewed up, and your sewing basket transformation is adorable! It's hard to believe it's the same basket! I'm swooning over your avenue tote, too (sigh)! I wish I had me some shopping money... hopefully soon... :)
ReplyDeleteHave a great day!
