Here’s the thing I hate about being sick.
I have all these projects swimming around in my head, waiting to be started or completed, but I’m just too darn sick to actually do them.
Here’s to having a week of getting better so I can start making/finishing things again. If it wasn’t for Hulu.com, I think I would be going absolutely mental. Well at least more mental than I am right now.
Ugh.
There was a time that I realized that I needed somewhere to lay out my quilts so I could look at them and “edit” them easily. Especially since I really seem to like doing the whole “random” patterns.
This was especially true when I started doing the Quilted Wall Hangings for Christmas presents. 2″ squares. Lots of 2″ squares. In a “random” pattern. I really should have known what I was getting myself into.
So I created my own design board. (more…)
Cleaning takes a lot out of a person. It really is a soul clearing experience, in my opinion.
So I went through the whole unloading of my creative crap into the living room, and now its all clean! Look at that!
Now for the nickel tour…
So…I went on my crazy cleaning spree with the fabric. I got everything into its nice and neat little piles so I could find everything and it works great.
Fantastic.
Wonderful.
Why in the world did I figure I should do the same thing to the ENTIRE ROOM?
I’m not really sure what possessed me to do it, but at least now Husband believes me when I say I’m going to take everything out of my room and clean.
EVERYTHING. (more…)
My sister was the hardest person to make a Christmas gift for (this is the last Christmas post, I promise). I didn’t think she would like one of the wall hangings I made for other members of the family, mostly because she had JUST graduated law school and hadn’t gotten around to finding her own place yet. She’ll get one later probably but she had no place to put it. We never were really close growing up and we have our differences, but I still really wanted to make her something she would enjoy despite everything.
So I saw this tutorial for a T-shirt scarf on Ruffles And Stuff a while ago and I wanted to try it with something. It looked just so cute!
I also found some really fun and fuzzy green fabric in my stash while I was cleaning that I had no idea what I was going to do with. It seemed perfect.
