A Prototype (skirt)

I am constantly scouring the internet for free tutorials. Easy ones with no buttons, snaps, or zippers. Here is one that I found that took up less than an hour of uninterupted free time. Anyone can do it! Now, I just have to find all of my scrap ribbon. Where did I put it? That's the question of the day!

plum

This plum jam better set up well in these recycled baby food jars. Because it was a pain in the rear to fill them up. Being the obedient wife that I am, I did this at Paul's request. Oh, but they are so cute!

"Why? It's a classic!"

Those were the words that came out of Paul's mouth when I told him that I was sick of my old, store bought, tomato pin cushion and that I was going to make one instead. But then, he really got into my new project and helped me with the pliers ('cause you just might need 'em). This pin cushion was quick to make, and a fun challenge for a sew-in-a-straight-line girl like me.
