Candle/Light
Thank you sugardoodle for helping me with my young women lessons. I wish I had more time to be as crafty as I would like to be, but for now I am glad there is something to get me started. I taught a lesson on Sunday about reaching out to others and being a light. The website had this handout. I added an orange border and tied it to a candle....pretty simple.

Doily Cards
somehow this post got a little forgotten about last week
I saw these on pinterest forever ago and have been dying to make them ever since. Brianna and I finally made them last night. They are so easy and cute. Literally anyone can make these. We added chalk to some, and those are my favorite.

Maxi Dress
ever since i saw this maxi dress post, i have been dying literally dying to make it. it looked so easy, and it really is. katy at http://sweet-verbena.blogspot.com is one of my favorite crafty bloggers. her tutorials are so easy to follow. this dress really is so easy and anyone can make it. all you need is 2 yards of white jersey knit fabric, thread, and rit dye in your color of choice. celsey and i added sewing to our monday night tradition, and michelle joined us. we sewed 3 dresses, ate dinner, and watched the bach. i'm already dying to make another one...this time shorter to wear with leggings. what color should i do and who wants to make one with me?
i LOVE rit dye although i felt a little like the jolly green giant wearing it

Itty Bitty Baby Skirts
The last time I made these skirts I never got around to posting a link to the tutorial. I searched online and found this tutorial. I actually liked it better than what I did last time. This time I gathered the top by pinning like crazy...more pinning than I have done in any other project. ever, but it worked. Last time I gathered by doing a basting stitch and pulling. I kept breaking the thread. This was was much easier. It definitely helped that these are the itty bittiest things I have ever seen. Someone have a girl baby fast.

dinner happenings
I went to dinner with a couple friends at Cafe Shambala in the avenues the other night. All of a sudden I saw a line of 10 ish people and thought it was ROTC or something. It ended up being the police. I was so distracted at dinner trying to figure out what in the world was happening. We never did find out. After 2 hours of standing around talking, they all piled in a minivan and left. So weird!
crafting piles
Life is so busy lately. I feel like I've been running my crazy busy head off which leaves very minimal time for crafting. I have several projects in process=crafting piles. I'm hoping to finish up a few things soon...very soon.

skip work and craft...maxi skirt
i thought i posted this on Friday, but i guess i didn't. oops...
Yesterday was skip work and craft day. Lots of various things came up so we didn't get started until later. It was a small craft day but still full of fun. Mikael and I made these maxi skirts. I started with this pin which led to another tutorial. We changed it a little so I'm pretty much no help on the tutorial part. We kind of followed the tutorial until the band part. We were getting a little confused so we just sewed wrong sides together and it seemed to work out. It was pretty easy and so comfy. I want one in every color. Next up...maxi dress.
