A Quilted Gallery Wall

This past month I’ve been doing a few updates in our little farmhouse; mostly just paint touch-up and a few simple changes in decor items.

Gift Sewing {and a tutorial!}

Happy fall farmgirl friends!

One of my favorite things to gift is something home made! I struggle to think of things that could be useful and not just stuck in a drawer somewhere. This week I suddenly thought of a simple iPad case and I jumped right in and made one. It was simple and came out so perfect. Luckily I took pictures along the way so I could share with you (just in case it turned out)! So let’s jump right in!
