Make a DIY Ironing Board - Tutorial Tuesday

Looking for something to use for pressing without using a purchased ironing board? I often get questions on my large pressing board so today I'm showing how to make a smaller one with a scrap piece of wood, fabric, and a couple pieces of batting.

For this project you will need:

• A scrap piece of plywood or particle board. My board is 20" x 24".
• 100% cotton fabric measuring 6" larger than your board. My board is 20" x 24" so the fabric is 26" x 30". For a 24" x 48" board, you will need fabric measuring 30" x 54".
• Two pieces of 100% cotton batting the same size as the fabric.
• Staple gun and staples

Foster Kitten Friday

This week was all about the looks.

The peaceful sleeper look.

The tongue sticking out look.

 The let me show you my belly look.

The basketball fan look.

 The shoe stealer look. Yep, two cats with two different pair of shoes.

 

Want to help contribute to the work I do with foster kittens? I have an Amazon wish list right here. These are the things I use again and again, year after year. With daily laundry and frequent cleaning, items have to be replaced often. I’d love anything you’d be willing to send my way!

 The it's my sewing space now look.

And then there was the look they gave me the most this week. The I'm not moving from this spot look.

Can't forget the let me clean you while you sleep look, caught on video.

I tell ya, these girls have some personality. It makes today another happy Foster Friday!
