a few more…
here's a few more layouts created in the last sewing-less week. It's coming home today (thanks Dad for picking it up!), so I can't wait to start on some projects that got put on hold. Namely, Sadie's Easter dress! I cut it out last night...I'm using a pattern, wish me luck. Those things seem like they are written in Swahili sometimes. (Or some hard … [Read more...]
no sewing machine=scrapbooking time!
While I'm waiting for my sewing machine to get back from the sewing machine doctor's, I decided to try and still be productive. I cut out a bunch of sewing projects I've been wanting (needing) to do...and scrapbooked. (GASP!) I haven't done that in awhile! It took a couple of layouts to get back into some kind of groove, so I won't show you the … [Read more...]

I admit, I don't like … [Read more...]

Relaxin’ and Scrapbookin’
Today was one of those days. You know, when you don't change out of your PJ's? (I did take a shower though) It was laundry day. Janae came over after lunch and hung out with Sadie and I. We made oatmeal chocolate chip cookies and I tried to explain the characters and plot lines of Grey's Anatomy to her. (didn't work) She had a blast playing with … [Read more...]
