Oh my…… I think I just found some amazing uses for all the lemons we were blessed with this year! Oh the lemon bread…. yuuummmm…
I’m totally going to make the lemon sugar hand scrub! What a great idea for a handmade gift.
I’d really love to get sweetwater’s simple home book….
that felt pockets are lovely! and i would make a terrarium if I could, looks so fresh in winter!
Did someone say lemon? And did someone else say gnomes?
I Need The Stitch Magazine!
Great ideas for day 19 thanks
I can’t get enough of tote tutorials! The Summer Madras Tote looks fab!
Those felt plant pouches are such a great idea! Another tutorial to bookmark, thanks!
Cute ideas!
I’m thinking some of that hand scrub would pair nicely with a gardener’s tool apron, all tucked into a tote! Thanks again for the inspiration!
Im loving the bag a day. So inspiring.
I would love to make the hand scrub!
I can’t wait to make the lemon sugar scrub!
Love those little gnomes. Too cute. Today’s projects all look pretty cool, the plant pouches would be great bit of urban graffiti.
The lemon cake and scrub look divine!
So many clever ideas for gardeners!!
Yum, yum, yum!! Lemon bread!! sweeeeet!
I’m drooling over that Lemon Bread recipe. Thanks for sharing!
Would like to try the lemon bread.

thanks! great prizes and ideas!

I love the bird printables! Great ideas once again.
Oh my, I need to make me some plant pouches! How cute are they?
Those felt pouches are going to be just great to hide the ugly sloping wall at the back of the garden – i’ve been wondering and wondering what to do with it. Thank you!!!!!
Those gnomes are too cute! I could use a big handful of them and plant them randomly around the house. Sure to cause smiles!
Yum, lemon bread. I like chocolate well enough, but my true love is fruity breads and desserts. I’m so happy to see you giving away copy of Sew Activism, too. It seems like such an inspiring book, and I’d love to own a copy.
I have no green thumbs at all, but I’m so in love with the items in today’s post. Thanks so much — maybe something to aspire to next spring!
Such ccute ideas

Those felt pouches are adorable, and so unique! And I may make some of that lemon hand scrub for myself…
Thanks for the great tutorials. The fabric choices are beautiful!
I love those bird ornaments!
i just love terrariums!
The bird tags are so cute! I think the outside of a present is as important as it’s inside. This is especially true when the inside is handmade. The packaging helps to set the tone. A few minutes can really make a difference to preparing a package. Love the tags!
The felt pouches are simply adorable!
The felt plant pouches look really interesting, what a great way to recycle old sweaters!
I love the books this week! Excited to learn some new projects….
Oh my… I soooo love lemon! Must try!
Oh, Oh, Oh, felt planters! What a great new idea. I have tons of felted sweater scraps that for one reason or another ( sweater got wonky when it felted) landed in the scrap basket waiting for inspiration. This is a great project and i can’t wait to make a bunch for gifts and for the garden.
that lemon lemony bread sounds soooooo yum!

What great ideas…I like them all!
Those little gnomes are so cute!
That lemony lemon bread sounds fantastic!
I have to say that this year’s lineup of sewing is a little bit disappointing for me. I’ve seen almost all of them via Pinterest! I’m not seeing much in the way of “new”.
Oh that tote bag is super sweet! And those gnomes are so cute! Seriousy drooling over the Sweetwater Simple Home Book!
