Fabric + B&W Photos = Beautiful Collage

Brassy Apple has this framed collage idea using your fabric scraps and black & white photos. She did a fabulous job with her fabric choices. I dig the zebra stripes! I also LOVE the monogram "P" that she displays next to it. I'm going to make this and put it on an entry way table with the monogram "S" next to it!!

Newsie Cap

I love these hats! They look precious in photos and they are cute on girls, too!
There are many different names for this kind of hat, but I call them "Newsie Caps" (do any of you remember the Disney movie "Newsie's")? I loved that movie and still have all the songs memorized!! Thanks to Mushroom Villagers you can make your own, here (the Eddie Cap). The tutorial is really easy to follow!

Then I found a picture of the remodeled one below and now I am so glad I didn't get rid of it because it is DARLING!! I can't wait to give mine a makeover like this! Thanks Tricia for saving my li'l desk!

Graphic T Pillow!

I am a sucker for graphic tees so when I saw this tutorial from Anyone Can Quilt (by the way, I love the title of her blog), I had to post it! I will definitely be making some of these.

This also reminds me of the newborn gown you can create out of a graphic tee I posted awhile back, here. Pin It

Cut-out Appliques

My kids wear out their jeans way too fast! I can't wait to try this cut-out applique. Heck, maybe I'll cut some new jeans because this is just too cute! You could use any shape you wanted. Found this idea at Koala Brains.
