Patchwork Tent

May 25, 2011 by Ashley Hackshaw

Lisa recently told me she wanted to make a tent for her daughter, perfect for play and for photos. She wanted it to have a very sweet and vintage feel to it. Here’s what we came up with.

I used some of my vintage fabric, even included some new fabric you might recognize from Lil Blue Boo clothing, to create a patchwork tent cover for the A-Frame Tent. We added some floral paper garland for a little something extra. Now we have a lovely tent for photos or for reading a good book.

Where did we go for beautiful tent inspiration? Pinterest of course! You must check out all of the lovely tent photos we found:

We created the A-Frame Tent using the tutorial by Cakies on Grosgrain. Super easy!

This week I’ll show you how to make the patchwork portion and simple garland to decorate the inside:

Seaside

May 4, 2011 by Ashley Hackshaw

I sat on the beach and a beautiful wave
Came tumbling right up to me.

It threw some pink shells on the sand at my feet,
Then hurried straight back out to sea.

It ran away swiftly and leaped up in foam;
It bumped other waves in its glee.

I think it was hurrying to gather more shells,
To bring as a present for me.
