Steve's Levi Quilt

Steve never ceases to amaze me. I love him so much! At the end of last summer, Steve's new project was making a Levi quilt. He collected jeans a few years ago and finally started to cut and sew. He did the top of the quilt all by himself. I only helped when he was sewing the last parts together.


When the top was finished, he found some material (with help from LaDawna) to put on the other side. Steve bought the supplies to have a quilting frame. Steve, LaDawna, and others tied the quilt. LaDawna is such an awesome mom! She finished Steve's quilt for him! A HUGE THANK YOU, LADAWNA!!!

The finished product



We love our new quilt, and we are so excited to use it. It is so warm and durable; I can't wait to go camping!

Blog Makeover

So, I've been thinking lately that I need to spice up my blog and really make it my own. I keep looking at the cutest blogs and wondering, "How do they do that?" or "Where are they finding these wonderful sites?" So I'm on a quest to make my blog more adorable with links to recipe and craft blogs; pictures of me, Steve, and family; and all that jazz. My good friend and neighbor, Annie, introduced me to some amazing blogs last night. I'm so excited to start my blog makeover. What I would like is some advice and some of your favorite sites. Thanks!
