It Almost Makes Me Wish

that I could sew.

Which I can't. Not even a button. Everything I've ever touched looks more like Frankenstein's monster than whatever it was supposed to be. I tried, quite seriously, to learn when pregger with Aly. My mother had a pattern for a stuffed ballerina bunny. Needless to say I gave up on sewing altogether when the toy began to resemble a zombie kangaroo in a ballerina costume.

But these projects make me almost want to.

How to Upholster a Headboard on Better Homes and Gardens

That one might require some silly other skills like carpentry...psh. Easy peasy.

Off subject, these make me happy. Except the clown. That one can burn.

  1. Funny you post the headboard picture. I have plans to make one someday! I will conquer the saw (with supervision, of course!). I'm not worried about anything else but making the wood part. We'll see. Give me a few years to cross this off the list ;) Yeah...I think I can do that. Some day....
