Resolution Review Part 2

Let’s see how I did with 6-10…
6.  I’m actually going to change this one a little bit.  Originally, it was to learn to knit.  The only reason I chose knitting vs crochet was because I saw a couple of knitted patterns that I thought were cute.  But this past week I’ve found this adorable hexagon crochet [...]

Resolution Review Part 1

Since the end of the month is getting close, I thought I’d take a couple posts to review how well I’ve done, or not done, on my new years resolutions.  And now would be an extra good time, because I’m kind of between projects (which is a really new concept for me), so I thought this [...]

Husbands

So back at the beginning of the month, my husband went out of town for a week.  It was the longest we’d been apart, and I missed him terribly.  When we finally got home, he was wearing a new t-shirt he had bought while out-of-town…

Awww….sweet, right?  I loved it.  It’s now my new favorite t-shirt of [...]

Giveaway Teaser

On Feb 4th, I’m participating in Katy’s“The Great International Stash-Busting Giveaway”.  In a nutshell, a whole bunch of people are going to have a stash giveaway that day, and everyone is going to link to everyone else’s site, so we’ll have a huge ring going.  At least, I think that’s the gist…Katy, correct me if [...]

So a little while ago, I posted about discovering Japanese fabrics, so of course I had to buy some.  I got my first 2 in the mail yesterday…yay!  They’re from superbuzzy who has a bunch of fabric, and they shipped really fast.  And their customer service department responded really quickly by email with a couple of questions [...]

Finito

I think that word means ‘finished’ in another language.  Color me embarrased if it means something awful.  But finished would be appropriate because I’ve finished 2 things. 

Elapsed time:  About 7 hours.

Elapsed time:  No telling.
My hubby was looking through my past blogs and said I first blogged about it May of last year.  The magazine the pattern was in [...]

Thursday

I”m struggling with a bit of the stomach bug this week, so this posting will be pretty cut and dry…
Since I’m down to some hand sewing on the binding, I figured it’d be a good time to clear off my sewing table and get out that puzzle that I’ve been meaning to put together for [...]

A Tongue-Twister

I must have a very short memory.  I easily forget how frustrated I get quilting my own quilts.  I think it comes from my perfectionist tendencies.  I finished this ‘Washington’s Cherry Wreath’ top and the basting quite a long time ago, and then it sat, nicely folded, until the correct amount of time had elapsed [...]

Here We Go Again

So this morning I discovered something I really need.  Has that ever happened to you?  You don’t know you really need something until you see it?  Well that was me this morning.  I was shopping on etsy for a couple of coin purses that I actually do need, and I discovered…
Japanese fabric.  Okay, so that [...]
