Easton's scripture tote

This is the cute little scripture tote I sewed for Easton.  He loves having his own little tote to carry his scriptures around in.  It's big enough for a small notebook and pencil too, so that he can draw during sacrament meeting.

a place to sew...

Here's my little sewing corner!  It's so much easier to sew now that I have a table to leave my stuff out on.  I started making Dawson's quilt this week.  I have had this fabric for 1 1/2 years now meaning to get this done.  It feels so good to finally be doing it!!!
