iPad (2) Sleeve

Last week I came across Just Another Hang Up’s Bunting Kindle Case and I fell in LUH-HUV (too bad I don’t have a Kindle, yet!) The next day I stumbled upon Sweet Verbena’s iPad Sleeve (GORGEOUS!)

I decided that I would blend both of those ideas and came up with my own version of a Bunting iPad Sleeve:

I had such a fun time going through my scraps and cutting out little pennants!  My mini-me cut out a bunch more for my next bunting project…oh and there will be another!

I used a funky fat quarter for the lining and added fusible fleece.

In the end, it turned out to be a bit too snug on my (Hubs’) “original” iPad, but should fit an iPad 2 perfectly!! Hint, hint, Hubby! (if you didn’t catch that Kindle hint at the beginning!)…somebody has a birthday next week…. 😉 Just kidding, I already got my birthday present! More on that to come!

15 Minute Infinity Scarf

I love scarves!  Half the time I don’t even wear them to stay warm, I just love the way they look!  A few months ago I posted my first DIY Infinity Scarf.  I love that it’s been repinned so many times on Pinterest!

I had a little extra time this weekend, so I decided to make myself a more neutral infinity scarf with a remnant piece of gray knit I picked up for about $2.  Fifteen minutes later this is what I had:

I love that you can wear these in so many ways!

My favorite way to wear an infinity scarf is doubled up.
I also dig tying a knot along the bottom.

My mini-fashionista reminded me that I had picked up another remnant knit awhile back.  I have to admit, she’s been waiting patiently for her own infinity scarf.  Easy peasy…and voila:

Long enough, that Mommy can borrow it sometime (maybe!)
Doubled up…
Knotted…

She asked if she could model her new scarf herself, and of course, I obliged!

Isn’t she the cutest?!?  🙂
