Handmade Fall Drop Cloth Pumpkins

With so many fall festivals, vintage markets and craft shows coming up
 I've been busy making fall decor pieces.
 
I wanted to share these cute drop cloth pumpkins and how I made them.

Valentines Day XO Hugs & Kisses Pillow Covers

Just before Thanksgiving I made pillow covers from ticking fabric.
I added vintage images to the front of these pillows
by printing the images onto creamy white duckcloth fabric.
 
They turned out really cute, you can check them out here.
 
I also made 4 solid pillow covers out of the creamy white duckcloth fabric
 to coordinate with the ticking pillows.
 
Today I decided to turn two of those solid pillow covers into Valentines Day pillows.

How I Upcycled a Sweater into a Valentines Day Wreath

Have you seen all of the things you can makes with old sweaters?
 
I've hesitated to try my hand at any of them
because I wasn't sure about sewing something bulky on my sewing machine.
 
Well, today I tried, and I'm super happy with the results.
 
 
I had a white sweater that I was going to wear on Sunday
and when I put it on, I noticed there was a gaping hole right under the turtleneck.
I don't know how it got there and I hope it wasn't there the last time I wore it.
