My Reply to my cat’s hatemail

Dear Fawkes, I know you don’t enjoy the crate or car rides, but you haven’t been feeling well lately so I was taking you to the doctor.  I knew you may have an accident in your crate, which is why I was smart and brought plastic bags and paper towels, and even lined the crate [...]

Hatemail from my cat

Dearest Human, You know I detest the crate, and dislike car rides even more.  Yet you stuffed me into one and took me for a spin. So I peed in the crate.  You’re welcome. We went someplace new.  Well, maybe I had been there before, but it had been a while since our last “trip”, [...]

Easter dress – 98% completed

I’m just about done with my daughter’s Easter dress.  All I have left to do is slipstitch the lining to the zipper. She LOVES it so far, and is begging me to let her wear it before Easter.  Sorry kiddo!   Things I’ve learned so far on this project: Cutting takes nearly as long as [...]

The Game of Thrones will be premiering on April 1st. I can hardly wait!  We bought season 1 on iTunes so we could rewatch them, and we also bought a copy of the soundtrack, too. Yet another countdown…  

Counting down to Spring Break

I put a little countdown timer at the bottom of the page (it didn’t really fit very well on the sidebar), more for me than anything else I guess.  I’m looking forward to a couple of days off when my daughter goes on Spring Break, even if we don’t even go anywhere. We’re working a [...]

Crafty Carnival at the school

Last Saturday I participated as a vendor at my daughter’s school Spring Carnival again. Last year I participated and didn’t sell a thing. This year, I sold a key chain, a bottlecap necklace, and several hair bows.  I’d like to thank everyone who stopped by and bought something from me this year, you really made [...]

WIPs, completed projects and high expectations

WIPs, completed projects and high expectations

I already posted pictures of these on FB last night, but figured it would make a good blog post, too, following up on my last one about ordering my sewing machine. I first used it to fix some bad stitching on one of my daughter’s nightgowns, using a “stretchy” stitch since the fabric is kind [...]
