Here is my February Calendar. I had a fun with this one because it is all done in red and pink! Two of my favorite colors!

Easy Maxi Skirt
We are starting a beginning sewing class in our Relief Society. That is the women’s organization in our church and I am in charge of teaching it. I am so excited because we have some really fun projects that are for beginners, but they are so cute that I think those that already sew will want to join us too! :)
In our first class we are going to make these darling Maxi Skirts!
(Don’t you love my new dress form? I just got it and I am so excited that I can dress it for my pictures now!)
Quilt As You Go Table Runner
I have been wanting a table runner for my table, but I wanted a square one, not a rectangle one. I had several different pieces of fabric that were red and white, so naturally I decided that I needed to make my table runner. I made it with all my scraps and this whole thing did not cost me any extra money, because I had everything that I needed! Score!
I love how it looks on my kitchen table!
Valentines Pillow Wrap
I have another pillow wrap for you today.
I love these wraps because they are such an easy way to decorate and a pillow can add so much to a room. This is my Valentines version. I love the colors with the touch of green added in the ruffle. It goes perfect with my black pillow, so I did not need to make a new pillow, just the wrap!
Recycled Sweater Scarf
A couple of weeks ago, I visited a good friend of mine who had a boutique booth at “This is the Place” in Salt Lake City. She had so many cute things and it was fun to go to this boutique. It was outside in the winter time! They had fires going in the evenings and carolers and it was an old fashioned Christmas setting! So fun!
While at this boutique, one of my purchases was a fun sweater scarf.
I loved it and knew right away that I wanted to duplicate it and make some for Christmas gifts!
Aren’t these sisters the cutest!
They are my friend’s daughters and I asked them to be my models and they were so gracious to consent. I love how they all have their own very distinct personalities! They are such sweet girls.
Ruffled Christmas Dishtowel and Knitted Dishcloths
It seems like I have had a lot of sewing projects lately and I promise that there are only a couple of more to come!
I just get the sewing bug when it comes to Christmas! I like to make some of my Christmas gifts and of course I love sewing some fun quilts and pillows!
Today I have my Christmas version of the ruffled dishtowels!
Christmas…Sew Cute!
Today I decided that I would show you some of my Christmas sewing projects from this year and from Christmases past. I absolutely love the warmth of these homemade quilts and pillows. They are so inviting on a cold winter’s night. This collection is from things that I have made and some that are gifts that were made by wonderful friends! It is good to have crafty friends!
Fun Christmas Wrap Pillow
Darling Chevron Christmas Quilt
I have a WIP (work in progress) quilt to show you today. I wanted to show it to you now in case anyone else wants to make one of these for the holidays!
It was a fun quilt to make and I was able to complete the top in two weekends! So it actually goes together quite fast!

Fall Pillow Wrap
Don’t forget to vote today?
That is my little public service announcement! :)
Now on to the post for today:
I have all of my Halloween put away and I have been a little slow on getting my fall/Thanksgiving decorations out. I just am having a hard time getting into it. I think that if I put it off, it will not come as fast! It is not Thanksgiving that I really worry about it is Christmas that seems to come waaay too fast! So let’s just be in denial and see where that gets me! :)
I did get one thing done and put out:
Here is my fall pillow wrap.
I made a linen pillow cover for this one that can be used with other wraps throughout the year. Now I have my black one from Halloween and a linen one. I should be able to use these two pillows with most any wraps!
I love the fall leaves in this fabric with the orange polka dot ruffles. Polka Dots and ruffles just go together, do they not? And the brown ric rac finishes it off so perfectly!
