I love Patchwork!!!

Oh no I think I might have found a new love. Don't get too excited it is not a man but I a new way to sew! For Christmas gifts I gave a lot of my accessories as presents since funds were a little tight. Since my mom does not wear headbands I decided to make her a patchwork scarf...using fabric from her own collection. She has SO much fabric, she had no idea what I even took! Since I had some of the squares leftover I decided to try and make a patchwork belt with it. And here it is:



I am so excited about how cute this came out. I think on the next one I will cut the fabrics into smaller pieces. I am already eyeing up my fabric to see if I can make some more belts like these! I might even make a matching headband for this belt. Stay tuned...I have some other great accessories ideas up my sleeve. Hmmm what fabulous accessory will I create next!

Love...Love...Love

I find it interesting that I am able to create many fabulous Valentine's items that are all about love when I am in fact not in love. :-( Sad I know, but an aspect of my life I am working on. As an avid believer in The Secret my hope is that if I embrace the Valentine's season I will send out to the universe that I am not a hater of love but a congratulator. So bring on the love universe...I'm waiting! In the meantime check out some of these great headbands I crafted up in honor of this day of love! And you thought I would stop at the cute t-shirts! The three headbands here are for your little one! I know my mom always got me a little gift on Valentine's Day so do the same for the fabulous little lady in your life!





And who says that fabulous ladies can't wear a "cool" Valentine headband too! I think the fabric used in these headbands is simply stated and beautiful!




So who knows, maybe Cupid's arrow will strike me and I will have a Valentine this year but for me sometimes it is a lot more fun to share the love which I think I have done with this great Valentine's accessories! Enjoy!
