Yes, but they’ll look like skin tight Bermuda shorts instead of khaki church pants.

When I posted the pencil case I made for my sister, Lindsey commented that I should make some sort of sanitary item holder. So, I got a little bored yesterday afternoon and decided to whip one up. Here’s the part where you imagine me laying 4 tampons on my cutting mat and trying to decide what size case to make. Then, you imagine Keller walking in and saying “What the crap are you doing?” So anyway…the finished case measures about 8″ X 4″. I think it might be a little long, though. It holds 4 tampons comfortably (ha!). And I think it needs a name. Suggestions?
Fabric: Amy Butler’s Nigella. I might have licked some of it once. Alissa dared me.
Campbell was looking at a book this morning and suddenly exclaimed “THAT JESUS RIGHT THERE!” This is what he was looking at:
My sister came over today for help making a couple of laundry bags. We got that done and she mentioned she also needed something to keep track of her pencils in her purse. We found the fabric in my stash and loosely based the bag on this tutorial.
I made a second bag for Macy and put the zipper in so it zips the other direction, which feels better to me.
In the last few weeks I’ve made 6 slings and 5 nursing covers for friends. You’d think that would have satisfied my need to sew, but it really hasn’t. I’ve become OBSESSED with making a quilt. It’s all I think about. I came across this tutorial, and decided to try it out. The best part? It uses scraps. BC will be delighted that I won’t be buying any more fabric….in theory.
So, I might have caused my BFF Sheri to get a ticket a few weeks back. You can read the full story here and judge for yourself. Today there was a package wedged into my mailbox for Keller from Sheri. What was in it? This little beauty:

He’s currently sleeping in it.
Macy’s been back for just over a week, but today was the first day of Kindergarten. Everything went relatively smoothly, except for Keller sobbing about not wanting to go to school and demanding I go with to drop him off and not eating breakfast, Macy sobbing about her BFF Uncle Blake leaving for Pittsburgh in the morning, me not having planned on taking the kids to school and therefore not having bathed yet, Bennett screaming to nurse whilst we were waiting for school to start, Campbell laying on the ground and/or humping BC’s leg the whole time…..OK, maybe things didn’t go so smoothly.
