What really is a "good" day?


To me...a good day is when I've accomplished something,
big or small,
that makes me smile and even better,
someone else smile.

Noah's birthday is Dec. 30th and his brother Brent and
my hubby and I were able to give him a tablet!
Well, he had other gift cards and ordered a sleeve online
to keep it in and protect it.

When the sleeve arrived it was less than stellar.
It was a major bummer to be truthful.
He asked me if I could make one for him that would fit tighter
and be more protective...well, I said I could sure try!!!

I've had this faux leather fabric type stuff that I bought at
Hob Lob for quite awhile ~
then I lined it with oh-so-soft polar fleece.

 He loved the fabrics! And so I began...
here are the results!








A good day is when you can create something
that makes someone smile!!
I love you my sweet Noah ~



Wishing you a wonderful Friday dear friends,
hugs and love,
Dawn

I love this tablet sleeve. You could make a sale, oh in your spare time lol. I would be your first buyer lol. I too have a Noah he will be 26 in May. Have a great weekend.

Hey Sweetie,
I'm such a bad friend, haven't visited in too long but glad I did. This sleeve is awesome. Just macho enough for a teen. Did you try to talk him into some lace and a seam binding wad???

Nothing like having a Mom who can just whip up something special when it's needed. This looks so good.. I thought at first it was the reject and wondered why it was not so good. Of course, this is the perfect one you made. Very masculine too.

Nancy said...

Just leave it to us Nuturing Moms who are always more than willing to try, with a great return smile for a hearty reward. The sleeve turned out beautiful!!
Have a Great Week end Dawn!!

Huggs, Nancy
