Whoo goes there? Whoo? Whoo?

So many projects on the horizon my head is spinning.  Small steps.  Dreams starting to come true.  I’m very hopeful for the future.  Headed into a busy season.  A season of…craft shows. Craft shows…never done ‘em.  Going to do 3 this holiday season.  Yikes!  Any tips for me? I was painting these last weekend in [...]

Halloween Hoopla

  And so it begins. The Halloween hoopla.   Last Friday, the peas were out of school.  We decided that would be a good day to host a Halloween party at our house – like we do every year. For the kids of course!  It IS my favorite holiday, yes.  And yes, I have said, [...]

Hipster pattern…coming soon. Pattern tester(s) needed.

What is this? It’s like having a baby.  All this preparation.  And decisions to make.  And finding props and the sort just the way you want them.  It’s not as easy as it looks.  Writing a pattern.   Sheeshzz! I wanted to write this as a PDF pattern that would be super easy for you [...]

Crisp, Colorful, Cold

Just a few words to describe “here” lately. The weather went from summer to winter in the blink of an eye. Last Sunday, we went with our church to enjoy the Apple Butter Festival at our church camp. It was a beautiful day.  The last one we have had this week. It was crisp, colorful [...]

Bloggers Quilt Festival

So I heard a little rumor from Kaye that this quilt blog festival was going on.  They time it so that it is going on during the International Quilt Market .  The Fall market is the BIG one of the year.  There is also one in the Spring but the Fall one is where most [...]

THIS is Grace.

This is Grace.  Just a normal, fun loving, funny, kid. I’ve known Grace since the day she was born.  Actually, even before that. Grace’s Mom and I work in the same office and we have been friends for over 10 years.  Grace has always kept us laughing.  Her Mom tells the funniest stories of her [...]

Some days we just step over random blessings

I’m not really sure why most days, I don’t take full advantage of what I’ve been given. I seem to just over look all these random blessings in my path. Are they really that random? I mean, God knows what He wants for us, right? I just seem to trip over them from time to [...]

T-shirts, t-shirts, t-shirts

Do you sew?  These are so cute!  And easy.  Use some stitch witchery, or steam a seam, etc and cut it out just a bit smaller than your applique.  Apply to your -shirt.  Stitch.  That’s it.  With each washing, the edges will fray and create this cute vintage look.  I’m having fun designing new things [...]

Mooahhhhahahah! (insert evil laugh here)

Did that spook ya?  My evil laugh and all?  It’s a pretty good imitation, right?  I mean, I totally had ya thinking that like Count Dracula was right behind you didn’t I?   OOooo!  I so love Halloween.  It is my FAV.OR.ITE holiday.  I just love it.  Love that it happens in the fall.  Love [...]
