A Little Crafting Weekend

Our 5th daughter, Taleigh, came in town this weekend!  We did a little crafting while she was here.  We have all become big fans of Pinterest and most of the things we cook, bake, decorate or craft lately seems to be an inspiration from someone"s "board".  Here are a few pictures of the things we did this weekend.  

Taleigh's new sister-in-laws have 3 sweet little girls and requested some cute halloween pants for them.  I'm not the greatest seamstress, but I thought they turned out pretty cute.  I just hope they fit :)

I wanted a new wreath for the newly painted back gate.  I love the big roll of burlap we found at Michael's.  It makes a perfect bow.

Lastly, Taleigh made these cute Christmas ornaments she had seen on Pinterest.  

Styrofoam balls wrapped with muslin, linen and burlap strips.  A loop of jute pinned on with pearl head pins.  They are much cuter in person.

It was a good weekend, just not long enough.  I'm so excited about this week.  I am getting a tutorial on how to monogram and applique on my new sewing machine.  More to come!
