cards from pretty scraps
There are some fabrics too pretty to throw away even the smallest scraps...
I keep a needle in a separate case for sewing through paper/card on my machine and it's so easy to do! I will definitely make more. Quick, colourful and fun to make!
I am doing some EPP with these Cotton and Steel basics (available here) and couldn't bin those little triangles so I made some cards. I created rectangles by positioning the triangles together, then used a dot of glue to stick the fabric down and stitched a simple rectangle just inside the shape. I didn't worry when the triangles were slightly different sizes, I think having the little points stick out looks quite cool.

keeping organised
This is such a clever idea! Not mine at all but my genius friend Rebecca's. I originally saw this idea on her blog. Since Lois is a month old today and it's my husband's birthday tomorrow, it was time to take the cards down. I love the idea of keeping them all together in a little book that she can look at when she's older and it's a lovely keepsake - thanks for sharing Rebecca!
I've also washed the kids bedding today and couldn't help but think wouldn't this be the cutest quilt backing?! It was actually mine as a child and I still smile every time I look at it!
Today I also discovered that the best way of clearing up a table that has been covered in glitter is to break out the playdough and roll it around to make glittery playdough... what could have been a big clear up job turned into another game. Win!
