November????

 Where, oh where, has the time gone?  It's already November.  I guess I've spent the last couple months sewing LOL  I picked up some cute kitty fabric and made Granddaughter #2, Emery, the cutest twirly skirt and appliqued tshirt.  


Then, I created a wonderful fall outfit for her fall school pictures.  


And that sent me down the rabbit hole of fabric, patterns and sewing again.  I even went so far as to open an Etsy store!  I've also been doing some planning for a couple of craft fairs next year. We'll see where that ends up :) 

Have you been doing any reading?  Eating anything good? I'm engrossed in The Wisteria Society of Lady Scoundrels by India Holton.  VERY ENTERTAINING!  I'm chuckling often with this one.  As for food, I have been doing Hello Fresh for almost 2 months.  I am loving it!  It eliminates my need to plan HAHAHA  Seriously, the ingredients all come to you with the recipe card for the meal.  All you need to do is pick the meals you want.  So, I guess there is some planning involved, but not like I was doing before.  I have a couple of free boxes to give away if you want to try it.  Just let me know!

Until next time....

Ready for the rodeo?

Well, after being away from sewing and listing and selling for a couple of years, I've finally got something new up. I used an adorable cowboy and cowgirl fabric from Michael Miller and made this skirt and top that would be perfect for a trip to the rodeo. Or it would be great for western day at school. Feel free to check it out...even bid on it ;0) http://cgi.ebay.com/Custom-Boutique-Rascals-Western-Cowgirl-CBD-FCBM_W0QQitemZ280255354898QQihZ018QQcategoryZ79714QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

So Harley has this interview to do

for church. She's suppose to interview one of the "older" members of the church about their Christmas memories and she'll have a presentation to do in front of the whole church at one of our Christmas programs. That is all fine and dandy, but she's in 3rd grade. Can you see her trying to take notes for when they answer her question of "what is your most memorable Christmas memory?" There is no way she can write even half way fast enough to get it down. I understand what they're trying to do and it's great! But what were they thinking asking a 3rd grader to do it? We have tons of 6th graders...let them do it. I'm tempted not to even bring her tonight for it. What should I do?

WIP Wednesday...on Thursday

I started this post yesterday. Several times.  But, I got busy doing other stuff and this got pushed to the side.  I finally have a few free minutes today so I figured I would come back to it LOL  Really, I am procrastinating on doing my last case study for the management class I am taking 😉 So, this is titled WIP Wednesday.  I decided I would start sharing my cross stitch WIPs with you.   I started cross stitching MANY years ago.  I've done pieces and given them as birthday, graduation and wedding gifts.  I made the whole family matching Christmas stockings.  Even got two of the three grandbabies stockings made after a long break from cross stitch while I sewed children's clothes and went to school.  But, I picked cross stitch back up a couple of years ago and quickly remembered why I love it so much.  It's almost mindless work for me.  It keeps my attention just enough to make ignore all else, but not enough thought has to b...
