Blast 29 :: Last day of two

a little beach, a little crafting for others of the kiddy tablecloth and napkin variety (finished that up now that the machine is home from the shop, yes it broke again....well, i should say, it needed to be cleaned...ahem...3 years between cleanings seems to be too long?). Finally, an apron to go and then an apron to stay, just because she liked it so much....a little pause in the birthday crafting love....

Blast 19 :: Festivities

Crossing another item off of the "Finally!" list....

Party napkins and tabelcloths - woohoo!
We have some tablecloths that we use for festive occasions and  cloth napkins are the norm around here. Still, I wanted something that said birthday and also something that when it was taken out and used the kids would feel that special feeling ...kind of like when they see the Christmas tree, know what I mean? They can feel in their being that something special is afoot. Those traditions...love them.

This Domestic Diva print from Riley Blake Designs was just the perfect fit. Not to mention that I had some serious yardage in that gal. I had plenty to make 15 kids sized napkins (about 6x6) and two tablecloths (one for our dining/game/craft room and one for the kitchen). This being one of the few prints from the stash that had an intention from the get- go, I was so stinkin' happy to finally have made it a priority to get the job done
.
So, even if the dishes sit a bit longer and the laundry piles a bit higher - at least I have these to show for it ;) Ahhh, the feeling of accomplishment. So good.
