Hello, Friends!

I love the colors in this week’s mosaic. It’s all so vibrant – you can tell that spring is here!

Links

Here are a few interesting things from around the web that grabbed me this week:

  • The Shirt Dress – a sewing tutorial from MADE EVERYDAY. I love the idea of repurposing Dad’s dress shirts into Daughter’s dresses. Very cute!
  • Just Say No to Screen-Free Week – by GeekMom/GeekDad. I have to agree with this. My kids spend a lot of time with their screens, but not as passive consumers. They are active creators, and the screens facilitate this. Electronic devices are not the enemy – it’s all in how you use them.
  • Big Button Challenge – an entry by House on Hill Road. Seven years ago, Erin used one of my handcrafted buttons on this coffee press cozy. It’s still one of my favorite entries from the Big Button Challenge I ran.

I’ve been thinking it’s Friday all week. I’m glad to be correct today. Have a nice one!

Working on the border today! I had a bit of a cris Working on the border today! I had a bit of a crisis when I realized that I didn't have enough of this bright pink to go around the whole edge, but I decided it was important enough to me that I could bend the rules and just buy more of this one color. The rest of the blanket is still entirely from my stash. It's just a tiny cheat 😊
