Luigi’s Done!!

I’m so excited that I finished my Luigi pincushion project tonight.  If you remember, Luigi originally looked like this… http://summersadie.files.wordpress.com/2008/04/100_2187.jpg , and was named Pierre. 
I fell in love with him at the flea market a couple of weekends ago.  He needed some TLC to get him cleaned up, but I think he cleaned up nicely.  And [...]

Birthday Quilt

I started quilting about a year and a half ago, and these are pictures of the first quilt that I’ve completely finished, back in February.  I have quite a few tops that I haven’t quite gotten around to the quilting step, but this one got completely done.  My Mom turned 60 in February and I knew [...]

Law of Marriage

I think it’s an unwritten law of marriage that I post a link to my husband’s new blog on my blog.  However, I warn you, it has zero to do with crafts, or anything remotely creative, and everything to do with sports.  Cincinnati sports to be more precise.  And no, we don’t live in Cincinnati.  [...]

Design Wall Help

So I want to put up one of those nifty design walls, so I can stick my quilt squares to the wall to arrange them before I sew them together.  I don’t have floor space enough to do it the old fashioned way, and am tired of picking carpet fuzz of my pieces.  A quick [...]

Calling All Commenters

So for my 10th post, I want to see how long it will take to get a comment….any comment.  I’ve had almost 30 hits and have yet to have a single comment.  It’s very possible that I don’t have anything on my blog comment-able yet.  Be that as it may, I’d really like my first [...]

Fabulous Flea market Finds

My husband and I made our monthly trek to the flea market this past weekend.  While he immediately gravitates towards the sports memorabilia, I try to find a little more one-of-a-kind things.  I don’t know how great our flea market is, but if you have a keen eye, you can weed through the junk to [...]

Inspirational Tidbit

Some people say, “I can’t be successful at doing/making/creating that, because anyone could do it.”  But it’s not about who can do it, it’s about who does do it.  A lot of people could do a lot of things that they never get around to doing.  So just because you think a lot of people [...]

Creative Outlet PT search

So I could be very wrong, but I don’t see the Memphis area as really crafty.  If you know of some crafty outlets for me to look into here, please let me know.  I’m going to look into antiques stores, design firms, and anything else I can up with.  BUT, I do have my sights [...]

Emersion Excursion

I’ve read through the first part of the Crafting a Buisness book.  It’s the interviews of other women who have rocked it in the crafting business, and it’s actually the first 2/3 of the entire book.  It’s very inspiring, and causes quite a bit of jealousy.  These women have worked very hard, and are very [...]
