Sewing

For those of you who don't know, I don't sew too much. All I've done is a quilt for Cameron when he went on his mission, which came out really great for my first sewing project ever, and we still use it a whole lot. Ane a few months ago I attempted to make a dress, which didn't turn out and I told myself that that would be my last sewing experience ever!

I was looking through a bunch of stuff to throw out or take to the DI, and almost all my purses ended up in the DI pile which meant that I needed a new purse. I went to JoAnn's yesterday and bought some cute fabric for a purse! So this morning I got up to start my purse. I thought it was going to take a long time, but I finished it pretty quick and it turn out cute for being a not-a-lot-of-experienced-sewer.I'm very pleased with the how it turned out, I even made pockets on the insides toward the top so that when I put my stuff in it won't look saggy.

I got so excited when I looked at the finished product that I fixed a few shirts and some shorts!

It was a successful sewing day for me!!!

Cake Month

We just took a trip to Winco to purchase cake stuff for this month's cakes. Yes.. cakes with an "S" I have 4 cakes to make just for this month. We bought so much cake stuff I had to buy a few totes to store it all in because it sure wouldn't fit in my tiny kitchen. I'm very excited for the business I'm making :) but then again very nervous.

I got new pans too.. YAY!

HARRY POTTER!!!

Harry Potter and the Half- Blood Prince was so great!

I'm a crazy Harry Potter fan. Y'all should go watch it!

( though you could tell they really tried to squeeze in everything from the book, not a lot of details)

Girl's Camp

So this is why I didnt blog last week! I had a hard but fun week at girls camp. Very spiritual time up in Angelus Oaks. Lots of bears and stubborn girls. Great talks. Good food. Enough walking to balance out all the food I ate. Crazy girls.

for a wedding yesterday, i'd never thought i'd be able to do black fondant, but there it is!!!

new look!

I got a new couch today. It made the whole place look different. I'm just so excited I had to blog about it. I also got a piano last week. The Burton's in our ward moved and couldn't take it with them, and it is the perfect piano for our little place! Making my place look a little more modern is GREAT! So I'd like to thank the Buston FAmily and Crissa!!:)

....more cakes!

Just updating on more cakes that have kept me very busy! It's so exciting!

This one was for a Baby Shower of two ladies; one was having a boy and the other a girl. Which is why it's both pink and blue.

This one was the Harris' little boy Ryder. He is 2 years old now and is obsessed with skateboards! ( I heard he was really excited about his cake:)

And this one was for Adam and Ashley's Wedding.

I hope you all liked the cakes, thanks to those who allow me to practice and experiment to become better at decorating.
