Here are some new clips Marsha and I made for Mckenzie. They turned out pretty cute. I'm sure we'll be making more soon:)

Here is another place mat project. Chris told me how to do this. You pretty much just fold the place mat in half and sew up the sides. Then, sew diagonals on the bottom of each side. Then, I looked in the ribbon section and found this thick ribbon. It was only .83 per yard. So, I sewed it around the top and then sewed the handles on.







It turned out pretty cute. The only problem was that right before I finished it my sewing machine broke. Like BROKE! I finished the rest by hand, but now I'm bummed about my sewing machine. I heard that JoAnn's does repairs so maybe I'll take it in tomorrow and see what they think.

Make-up Bags

On our girls weekend my sister-in-law had one of these she made out of a placemat. We got all the stuff together and Kellie and Chris left before we could make them together. I sat down to make them today while I was waiting for some work emails to come in. Both of them took about a hour to make. They turned out cute too.

This one is for make-up brushes, mascara, lip gloss and an extra big pocket for my eyebrow fixer.
Then, I thought I'd make one for my make-up. I use bare minerals and they get so dirty when they are together. This keeps them all nice and clean. Also, I know what order I put them on instead of looking for the next one I have to use. If you use bare minerals you know what I'm talking about.
I wasn't expecting this one to look so cute when it's all tied up. I love it!

The placemats were at Wal-mart for about $1.89 each and the ribbon was probably a few dollars a yard.
