Online Embroidery Class

These new kits are so much fun! I used to embroider in high school and in college! It’s been a very long time, since I’ve embroidered. I won’t say how long! 😂.

Needless to say, the directions that come with the kit, combined with the video that you can access with the kit make this kit so doable for all levels, even beginners. I’m also putting together some video instructions for each of the stitches, which will be available to anyone that purchases one of the kits from my website: DIY Kits

Here’s how far my kit has come long. The most exciting part of these projects are, that you can use any of our transfers to create your own embroidery projects. The sky is really the limit! Just ink your favorite fabric, and add your own embellishments with embroidery!

Here are the 3 kits that are available! I had to get all 3 of them to try, of course. I will say, that the floral one has a lot more stitching. Doable for a Beginner, but I recommend the bird one first if you’ve never tried embroidery before.

You could try any of them, and if it’s not your cup of tea, then you could just leave only a few stitches and it would still look beautiful!

Here’s the video of me getting the fabric ready with the ink! Be sure to stay tuned for more diy videos on their embroidery tips and tricks.

I’m always interested in what the project looks like when it comes, so here it is. Everything is there that you need, ink, hoo, fabric, reusable transfer and squeegee. It’s all there!

Even if you miss the actual class, I will make my videos available on YouTube

DIY Pig Feeder

This is our second year of raising pigs for the fair. We've had some bumps along the way, one of them was our homemade feeder of last year. I tend to have ideas, and then Mr. Right gets the pleasure of trying to execute my ideas. Most of the time it works out, but last year, our feeder was a fail. This year, we need a feeder that can go a long period of time, since our pigs are not on our property where we live. Our neighbor made a complaint about the smell of the pigs last year to our landlord, so the landlord told us no more pigs. (Keep in mind, there are only 2 pigs on 6 acres and they are only here for 5 months and then go to the 4-H fair and livestock auction) Thankfully, another neighbor graciously allowed us to pen up a corner of her horse pen, to put our pigs in. This year, I wanted to be sure that Mr. Right did a quality version of the pig feeder that would make it through the entire five months, and hopefully...

Local Harvest

I am so surprised at the amount of people who don't take advantage of local farmers and produce! We heard about a place called "Tomato Toms" and just had to check it out. (Especially since it seems nearly impossible to grow tomatoes in our town. I think it's something about the elevation) We took a Sunday afternoon to drive to explore local produce and find Tomato Tom. This drive, I thought for sure that no one could be possibly growing anything on such dry land (see the background to the first picture, below). Then we drove up a scary driveway and look what we found: Tomato Toms was a fantastic sizable garden of u-pick heaven! We picked 60 pounds of tomatoes in 10 minutes. Then took about twenty more minutes to figure out just what onions and peppers we needed to go with our tomatoes. The tomatoes weren't store perfect, as in no blemishes or anything, but they were beautiful and tasted wonderful off the vine! I don't normally ...

Burlap and Ticking

I found a queen size bed ruffle with a ticking ruffle on it. Immediately, I picked it up (for only $1!) at our local thrift store. I knew that I would combine it with my find of burlap bags. ( I picked up 200 of them for only $10! Yes, that's right, they were only $.05 each! I overindulged in them, and could take no less than 200 because of the price.) One of the problems with my new bags is that they are a little smaller than the printed ones that I have. I personally like really long table runners because I have a really big table, but I decided to get over my own feelings and make this runner as long as I could (the ruffle really helped, too). So here is the runner. I think the ticking and the burlap really look great together. I know how to make ruffles and have ticking, but for $1 I thought that this really was worth using from a different source! You could have it in the middle of a big table like above, or you co...
