One month later...

Except for repairing a pair of my brother-in-law's pants, I hadn't sewn in over a month!!

Night before last, I sewed the border pieces for Rod's quilt together. I am hoping to get the "quilting fire" back in me SOON!!!

I just feel so tired & lethargic...from what I keep getting told, no one blames me for feeling that way, as I have 2 small children, but I don't think it should make a difference...



Wish me luck!!

My Apologies...

I'm sorry it has taken SO long to post...

I haven't gotten much farther on the scarf.


However, I did finally get the border fabric cut for Rod's quilt!




I have been having a problem getting back to work on quilts, so I haven't finished his quilt yet, but I'm hoping to do it soon, then my mom can embroider it, & we can mail it out.

Frogged, back to the beginning AGAIN!!

After going back & forth for the last week, I finally ended up having to completely frog this scarf & start again.

I'm really liking how it's turning out now that I've started anew.

I am SO happy I was able to match colors so closely. I also plan on adding the patch or two that were on the original.

I'll update on Monday or Tuesday, once I get back from my Dad's.





Merry Christmas
(or Happy Holidays, whichever you prefer)!!

What has been accomplished today, so far....

We went to town, Nate cashed his check, we got a money order, we sent that and Netflix out, along w/ 2 mixed CDs for a friend in NC.

I also got a bit farther on my crochet project, although, I ended up having to pull almost all of it out & start again.

We'll see what happens w/ Rod's quilt tonight.

A new schedule...for us all!

Nato got a new work schedule, so we had to re-arrange our whole day, so we actually get stuff done.

I will be crocheting anytime I'm not busy, in addition to my craft time, to ensure some of it gets done everyday.


I really need to finish Rod's quilt. I've been meaning to, just been kinda busy with the kids.
Tomorrow is Nato's day off, so I plan to finish Rod's quilt tomorrow.


Wish me luck!

Sleigh Bells ring......Are ye' listening??

My MIL bought 12 little stockings for the family, but there ended up not being one for her, so I'm gonna make her one out of Tinkerbell material.

An update from my desperate plea...lol

Nato & I talked last night and he said he's going to buy me the laptop, under the firm stipulation that I have it at least MOSTLY paid off in approx. three years.


So,.........................YAY!!!
