May fo Me Day #3 Babies R Us

   NEED I SAY MORE...

I so kid you not Jorge finished up with May for Me at about 4pm and we had a quick dinner that was just your basic American Franks. And look - this is just too classic even for Jorge!!

So today's theme for Jorge was Bib's.. (now you get the whole picture above)!! Very easy project but still one Jorge has never done and so here is what he did...

He found the pattern out and instead of printing it out he took his ruler out and did his measurements and then drew it out. He used my Tupperware ( www.tupperware.com ) container to do the inside circle and off he went to start his Day #3 project.

Today he really didn't have a lot of room to work with because I had all of my custom orders I was packing up and getting ready to ship. So thankfully bibs don't require a whole lot of room as you can see.

We really need to get inventory in our Christmas store really bad and so Jorge decided to use up our Christmas fabric. www.etsy.com/shop/christmas101 and so now we'll have these super cute bibs to put up for sale.

I should of gotten closer but if you click the picture you can count all the pins - I think he's pin crazy but what do I know about sewing - NOT MUCH... But I do know how to sew!! I would rather knit/crochet and leave the machine for him!!

I really - really like this fabric - super cute and hope it sells... By the second bib he was just moving along a lot quicker. He says tomorrow even though it's my May for Me he's going to sew up a bunch more for our main store www.etsy.com/shop/mrscraftyrving

And here you go... Now we sure need to make an Adult size one just for Jorge!!

** TIP ** 

Get one of these if you don't already have one.
Jorge uses this every time he sews
 - this is Rotary Blade Sharpener which he bought his at www.joann.com for under $20.00

My Title Granny Square Queen

When I first joined campground_crafters I was just learning how to do a granny square. Once I learned how to make a granny square blanket it was all I made for the first year. LOL and today was a reminder of that time in my life - which had earned me the nickname in our group "Granny Square Queen"... We have 6 king sized granny square blankets in our rig... Today is laundry day and well guess what got washed...

My husband constructed a couch that converts into a bed on the lower floor so that we can use the over cab as storage... And OMG it has open the floor and looks huge and clean in here. In the next couple of weeks with purchases of new bins we will re-organized the entire rig so that we can be 100% clean/organized/set-up/and just plain happy again... I am so jazzed because I will get to blog and share our adventures and tips with our followers... Jorge has a lot of sewing he'll be doing to in the next couple of days too - popcorn fabric will be used on the body pillows and my black and white granny square will set off the them in our movie theme rig... Thrilled...

I really hope to get some sales going in the store to pay for all of our storage container and gadgets to make like easier for us - since we are keeping "MrCrafty" another year... So with Easter nearing soon stop by any of shops and see if there is anything you need or want and remember we do custom orders (like yesterday a lady order applique stars and I had them in the mail with 2 hours of her order - I made them that quick to get them out of the rig ASAP - I like my customers happy...). One of our stores is having a sale so be sure to check them all out..
