I love this quilted checkers set by Rashida Coleman-Hale in Sew News. Definitely going on my list of things to make, thanks to Sew Mama Sew.
Moms are bawse (I learned some new slang this week, there goes the neighborhood). It was back-to-school shoe shopping time again last week, as it has been for most of the years of my life. My mom can’t get through a September without buying someone new shoes, and I tend to stick my feet in her path until she covers them with some new fabulosity. When my two-year-old niece starts school I’m in trouble. Anyway, I sent my mom a link to these moccasins I was coveting, and I mentioned that I also need a new school bag because I’m in a fight with the one I’m making and couldn’t decide which of these argyle beauties to get from Lands’ End. I can’t make these kinds of decisions, and apparently neither can she. When my shoes turned up, so did BOTH argyle totes I wanted. Which one do I move into first?
