DIY Doll Tent with #Singer
This post is brought to you by Singer. All opinions are 100% my own. I recently got a new 9960 Quantum Stylist Singer Sewing Machine and I wanted to really test it out, so I decided to make a Doll Tent.

How to make a childs apron with fat quarters
How to make a childs apron with fat quarters My kids love to help me in the kitchen. Since I love to cook and bake, I have a few aprons that I like to wear and I thought it would be way fun for them to each have an apron too! We have lots of material that isn't big enough to make large items with, but it is fun to make small projects. Fat Quarters are a great way to make things and use up all the pieces of the fabric. I decided I wanted to learn How to make a childs apron with fat ...
