Birthday Fun!

June is a big birthday month in our family.

And I love making gifts! :-)

I used my Crafter's Edge die cutting machine to personalize these pillowcases.

  I added the appliques before sewing them together. It was so easy to cut the appliques with the Crafter's Edge alphabet! 

The top one is for my DGD. I made the mistake of sending her older brother a pillowcase with the Disney Coco fabric and, at 3, she can't read and thought it was hers! (In my defense, I had no idea the fabric or movie were such a big deal! I purchased the fabric for him for a Halloween pillowcase. I didn't realize my faux pas until DS called and explained the nightly wars. LOL!)  So she needed her own.  It took me a bit longer to find more fabric, but I did!

 I don't have all the alphabet dies so I had to improvise on the 'd' for my DDIL. This is the Gaelic spelling of her name. And I just love it! :-)  

Both have now been received and I am so happy to report they were both a big hit. Yay!! :-)

I have been keeping a few more things under wraps and will be back soon to explain!

Until next time~

Happy stitchin'!

Who knew that having a Halloween Hop last week would bring the chilly weather?! We had rain, wind--- the power even went out for a few hours...
