I am a working mom with the sweetest little girl God could have ever given me. I have a new found love of sewing and decided to create a blog and show my work!

My project for Khloe, The story of Jesus

I decided that I wanted Khloe to learn the story of Jesus through the month of December. I found a few leads that I liked on, once again...Pinterest. I finally decided that I wanted this to be a family project, so I got Scott to cut out a piece of wood that I would cover in fabric that Khloe picked out and he also made a frame for the piece. Here is how it began...


We decided that we wanted to put JESUS in the middle of the framed/fabric covered piece so Khloe could also learn how to spell Jesus. So, above is all of the frame pieces and the fabric covered wood. The final result includes 2 nails for the 25 cards that I made to split up the story of Jesus into the 25 days to Christmas. Here is the result...


Each day we would grab a number (she would tell me the number) then we would read the back of the card. I basically printed out numbers 1 through 25 and then printed the broken up story on the back of each number and laminated each card. Then just punch a hole in the top and voila :) It is still hanging in my house and it is about to be June! I figured Jesus is welcome to be on the wall all year 'round...even if it is decorated in Christmas fabric!

Happy crafting :)
