If not me and you, then who?

Hey loves!

So there is a popular contemporary-Christian song out that I love! It’s called “Do Something” by Mathew West.

Here is the chorus-
‘He said, “I did, I created you”
If not us, then who
If not me and you
Right now, it’s time for us to do something
If not now, then when
Will we see an end
To all this pain
It’s not enough to do nothing
It’s time for us to do something”

I don’t know if you’re a volunteer-aholic like me but I, often times, get brought down by all the pain and suffering around me and can’t help but feel like I’m not doing enough.

Well, that changes today and I need your help to do something that id near to my heart- feeding children. WAIT! Before you come up with all the reasons you can’t, let me tell you can.

All you have to do is watch (and hopefully like and share) this video by one of my heroes, Kid President. For every watch, like or share ConAgra foods will donate a meal to children this summer who, otherwise, won’t have one.

See? Super easy right? You can do something. I can do something and, together, we can make a difference.

“Let’s feed some kids, you!”

Sew Cute Summer Tutorial

Hey Loves!

Summer is here! It is hot and the humidity is in full-bloom! With the season change, I cleaned out my closet and realized I was short on summer dresses, so I decided to finally use some fabric I got sometime in 2012 and make one.

You know me…(and if you don’t)

I hit Pintrest to see what was out there and I found this tutorial!

It was great! Very easy to follow and looks super chic.

I would offer these suggestions:

1. Cut the tank longer thank you think. I ruined a tank top and had to start over (using a tube top).

2. Use fabric you don’t have to line…I didn’t realize how see-through my fabric was until I was done.

3. You have good reason to fear elastic thread. I couldn’t figure it out and let’s not attempt to count how many times I tried. I looked up quite a few tutorials and tips and no luck for me.

Anywho…happy summer and happy sewing!
