As my sewing buddy Tripti can attest, most, if not all, of my projects have pleats. Unintentional Pleats that result from my less-than-perfect sewing skills. Not this time though! My life is so exciting that I feel it necessary to announce my first intentional pleats! A whole group of them in fact- a ruffle, if you will! The apron itself didn’t turn out as cute as it looked in my head, but the lesson was learned, so I’ll count it as an experiment. It’s a little…Minnie Mouse with that black edging. The fabric I’ve had for a year and didn’t know what to do with. In fact I got it the same day I got the leaf fabric in my first apron. (The Joann Fabrics nearby was moving locations and having the obligatory blowout moving sale and I was just learning to sew so I grabbed all kinds of stuff!) Anyhow, Stay tuned for the next exciting adventure at L-Del Sews.

MLK Day found me off work and at home, crafting. I thought I’d make my co-workers cup cozies since we all drink coffee and tea in the office. We have paper cups but we don’t have the cardboard holders so I thought these would come in handy. They’re reversible and washable. And I got 17…
We have a group of playdate friends who organized a Busy Bag/Activity Exchange so I was trying to think of something that would be fun and yet personalized, so that each kid would have their own special item. I’d seen I-Spy bottles and figured they are easily customizable, so I thought I’d give it a…
