SOWN by amanda: what's the point?
http://sownbyamanda.blogspot.com/2011/09/making-change.html
Tuesday, September 13, 2011. So what's the point in doing all this anyway? I believe God has gifted me with a creative streak. I love creating things. He made me this way. It's taken me awhile to realize that it's for a purpose. I used to think it was just for fun. but now I realize that my fun can bring Him glory! Man, He's awesome! But God's plan was different. Isn't it always? Commit your works to the Lord and your plans will be established." Proverbs 16:3. And I just gotta share this message I got ba...

SOWN by amanda: breathtaking
http://sownbyamanda.blogspot.com/2011/11/breathtaking.html
Tuesday, November 1, 2011. Every once in awhile God reminds me in breathtaking ways about His great love and His special plans for us. The last two weeks have been rather crazy, between Halloween costumes, a creative giving class, and a "craft fair". That could be another post for another day). You can just barely see an orange ruler in front of the box that this is laying on. the letters are about two inches wide. They sort of seem giant in this picture with Lil' Buck laying beside them. Don't they?

SOWN by amanda: Creative Giving Class #3
http://sownbyamanda.blogspot.com/2011/10/creative-giving-class-3.html
Wednesday, October 26, 2011. Creative Giving Class #3. Oh my did we have fun! Well, I certainly had fun! We go to work cutting out the pieces, and decided we had time to go ahead and make two car rolls - because Stephanie has two boys it only made sense! Miss Maria over there in the sunlight brought a project that she has been meaning to finish, so she got to work on that while we worked on the rolls. Stephanie sat down behind that machine and it was like she'd been sewing all along! I couldn't find a ba...

SOWN by amanda: UPDATE!
http://sownbyamanda.blogspot.com/2012/03/update.html
Monday, March 5, 2012. I don't know when I'll be doing more sewing or creating or what not. We are knee-deep in the middle of transitioning our newest additions to our family - twin one-year-old BOYS! God's blessings are overwhelming! We found out January 11 that we had been matched. It's funny because earlier that same day when I was reflecting on my goals for 2012, when it came to "SOWN" I had nothing to write down - and then that phone call. So its been quiet here, and will continue to be. Thank you, ...

SOWN by amanda: Creative Giving Class - FORT KITS!
http://sownbyamanda.blogspot.com/2011/11/creative-giving-class-fort-kits.html
Wednesday, November 30, 2011. Creative Giving Class - FORT KITS! We had a lovely, laughter-filled morning of fort-kit-making! Really, we didn't make the kits, we just prepared the sheets for kits. Basically, you sew loops on the corners, side, and middle of each sheet. Then you add some clothespins or clips to it to make fort-making a bit easier for the kiddos. I only picked up my camera one time. here Erica is getting ready to pin some loops on sheets, while Aimee sews along. Its awesome to get together...

Wednesday, November 16, 2011. Creative Giving - Fabric Flower Headbands! I confess, I forgot to get the camera out during "class." So I had to take a few pictures of myself after the fact. I didn't feel like a dork at all ;). Ok, these babies are easy. and versatile. This one even looks totally different depending on which way I wear it. See totally different. Huh? Here a couple links with different variations of how-to make these babies. Too, so browse for more ideas while you are there! First off, I th...

SOWN by amanda: keeping {so} busy
http://sownbyamanda.blogspot.com/2011/10/keeping-so-busy.html
Monday, October 24, 2011. In a good way. Although, I did feel a good strong warning to be careful about taking on more than I can handle. I had a custom order to make 3 dwarfs (out of the 7) and an Old Hag costume. It was really quite fun. but also quite a bit of work. They are in the hands of the U.S. Postal Service now.

SOWN by amanda: learn something new...
http://sownbyamanda.blogspot.com/2011/10/learn-something-new.html
Tuesday, October 25, 2011. Everyday. when possible. I stopped by and was amazed at how well she had the house cleaned and packed, just a few more days before they would travel overseas to their new home. She didn't complain or seem scared, just ready, for international travel by herself with her three boys and two dogs. Amazing, right? Wouldn't you know she had three pair of pants WITH TAGS ON! Thankfully, I remembered seeing some hemming pins on pinterest. And eventually used this pdf. As it turns out, ...
