I was contacted by the authors several months ago and asked if I'd like to contribute a project to the book to be included in the Barnes and Noble bonus section. Of course I said yes! I was more than thrilled to be a part of this awesome book. There's my project below...a meal planning organizer with tips to make it using laminated cotton/oil cloth.

I have such a long list for crafting next year. I have a son who is a year and a half and I'll be having a girl anytime now (due 12/31) so lots and lots of baby and toddler stuff! Cloth diapers, snuggly winter clothes, blankets, car activity bags, you name it, I want to make it! My biggest challenge will be finding TIME!

I love the question because I have an answer ready. I bought a 2012 day planner and have it all worked out and will be doing my best to follow. I will sew at least one hour each day, I will stitch at least one hour each day and I will quilt at least 3 times each week. I also want to learn more about scrapbooking and making other items with sewing and stitching.
