A stash of fabric

I bought this fabric about 1 1/2 years ago with the intention of making something with it. After getting started and then not liking the way it was coming together, I put it away until just recently. I found something new to do with it and am anxious to get started. Check back to see what this stack of fabric becomes.

A little Spring Cleaning

OK - well, maybe it's a lot of spring cleaning. I haven't really deep cleaned my house since we moved in three years ago, so I decided it was definitely time.

She's the only one small enough to get up there.
