For Christmas this last year I decided to do a lot of sewing, a lot for me anyway! A few years ago I attempted to make an apron for Brady, it turned out awful! I have since done more sewing and thought I would attempt this again. I am still a non-sewer and only dabble, but the more I sew the better I get. Here is what I made this year: reversible aprons for the 3 kids with matching chef hats and a bunk bed tent. I had a lot of fun making them, especially the chef hats!
Love Brady's face! Probably not his favorite gift, but he likes it now, thank goodness!

The bunkbed tent I wish I would've reinforced the windows like the tutorial suggested but I was a little done by the time I made it and finished right before we left for Ogden. I used a queen size flat sheet, which worked perfectly! I didn't need anymore fabric then that. I modified the straps from the scraps, I should've also added a strap in the center, it would stay up a lot better then it does now. I would've made the windows a little bit smaller, since the first time I put it up Brady thought it would be great to climb through it and it ripped slightly. You can never quite guess what kids are going to do, the unthinkable really!
I cannot take all of the credit, here were my resources:
