Happy Birthday Audrey Hepburn

Today she would have been 85. I enjoyed reading this article about her early life. I honestly didn't know anything about her childhood or her parents. I made this illustrated quote several years ago around a stamp that honored her.

Time to Tuck in Soon

This will be Webster pretty soon. He's out on the balcony in the pitch black dark looking for the fox. Every now and then he makes a soft "woof" to let me know he's still out there. The doors are wide open so he can come inside when he's ready for me to tuck him in. See you tomorrow morning. xo Sleep tight.

DIY: Cute Reversible Bag to Sew

This bag is supposed to be for kids but I want one too. You could adjust the size quite easily. It would have made a fabulous basket for an Easter Egg Hunt if I had discovered it earlier for you. What a great way to use up all those small pieces of fabric you've been saving! Directions and pattern HERE. You're welcome.
