Appliquéd Burp Cloth

Hope ya'll had a great 4th of July! It was really nice for me to have a day off in the middle of the week. Since it was the middle of the week, our family just stayed at home and enjoyed time together. At dark, we went and watched the fireworks display put on by the city.

I'm still getting ready for a grand-son that should be coming any time now. Since burp cloths are a must, I dressed up some cloth diapers with appliques.

I folded the cloth diapers in third and sewed the ends and sides together. Then, using the Silhouette Cameo, and the silhouette interfacing, I cut out the silhouettes of a truck, dinosaur, and giraffe. I used a simple stitch on the sewing machine to applique the silhouettes on the cloth. I love how they turned out!!

The giraffe is my favorite. I love the fabric with the spots.

The dinosaur is also very cute with the tie dye green fabric.

What would you make with a Silhouette Cameo? Don't have one? I know this great blog that is giving one away! Just visit I {heart} Nap Time and enter to win! Good Luck!

Monogram Tile

Wow, I have been off this week and have accomplished so much. It has been great to take vacation and stay at home. Even though I love to travel, spending time at home and sleeping in my bed are also wonderful.

During my time at home I have been looking for some inspiration on Pinterest. I was looking for a wedding gift and found the perfect pinspiration here at The Hybrid Chick.

Like my pinspiration, I used a 6x6 tile. However, I decided to use the Silhouette Cameo and print my design in vinyl. I used a red vinyl for the large letter in the background and black vinyl for the words and flourishes.
This was such an easy project I may have to make one for me. This would look so nice on my mantel or entry table.

Do you have weddings to go to this summer? What are some gifts you made for the wonderful couple?
