All the "projects" lately on my "want-to-do-crafts list" seem to require some sort of sewing. I've been saying for awhile now that I want to re-learn how to sew, so I started looking online at sewing machines. I asked for one for Valentine's Day, just a basic, inexpensive one to learn on. Well, it's ordered and should be here anytime from Friday on! I'm *sew* excited HaHa! ;) Stephen is super sweet to give me one for Valentine's Day! I have the best hubby! (and not just because he bought me a machine!)
I know I have family and friends that would let me use their machines, but this is something I wanted for my own. Besides, so much easier with my work schedule to do those projects when I don't have to plan a time to do it and can just do it when I have some free time at home...and having my own sewing machine will allow for that. ;)
After looking at some craft blogs today, I have added to my "want-to-do list" HaHa. I am excited to make some fun things for Noah and baby boy! :)
Check out the cute Valentine applique shirt I saw today on B is for Boy Creations:

It's hard to find things that boys can wear for V-day, but I think this shirt is super cute! :) Hopefully I get my sewing machine, material (since I have no scraps yet HaHa), and have time to make one for Noah before V-day HaHa. ;)
Either way, I'm really excited to get the machine! :)

About Us
- Bensons
- We are a blessed, busy, happy family!! Stephen and I were married in 2004, and started our family in 2007 when we welcomed our first little one into our lives, and we are still growing, with now a total of three amazing little ones! We like to spend time together as a family, and with our extended family and friends as well! I started this blog to keep a record of all our memories, and to keep our family members and friends up-to-date (well to try to anyway HaHa)! It's also a place for my random thoughts and rambling!
