The Camera

So here is a picture of my new Canon Xsi camera with a very old lens attached…

That black patch on the bag is the most serious velcro known to mankind.  I will know if someone is trying to steal my camera, because of the sound that velcro makes when the flap is pulled open.  There’s [...]

Catching Up

Here’s the hobo bag I sent Beth for my 200th post giveaway:
 
I just love the Wonderland fabric, and couldn’t cover up these cute birdies:

And part of the reason it took me so long to make the bag was that I was also working on another one simultaneously for my friend Jöelle:
 
I decided to hold Rachael’s [...]

My New Tote

I have a new tote bag. 
And surprisingly, I didn’t make it. 
Even more surprising, it’s made from fabrics that you can’t exactly buy yet.
I think you’ll like it – very cute, and you know I love owls.

 
Yeah, I might have received this from Ms. Pink, she was giving away samples made from Hushabye, due out in [...]

We Have Winners!

I’m blown away by all of the comments – y’all are very random, and wear pretty underoos! 
*drumrolls*  The random winners are (and yes, I’m way too lazy to copy in the proof):
Chen who said: “How’s this for random…I went to sleep in my bed and woke up on the floor by the front door. Yes, I [...]

Because I Matter

When Tracey posted about wanting some motivation to create things for herself, I had to agree.  While I love the VQBs and swaps I’m participating in, projects for me can be pushed to the side. 
So I signed up for the Because I Matter Challenge, and will submit my progress at the end of each month [...]

Curry Up, Don’t Be Late!

First of all, I apologize for the delay in this post – life (and in-laws) get in the way sometimes.  Anywho…
Wheee!!  I had a ton of fun reading all of your comments on my giveaway post – including all of the guesses on the polish color for my latest pedi.  I loved your rationales for [...]

For All Intensive Purposes

EDIT: This giveaway is closed – winners announced here.
Did you know that isn’t proper grammar?  I didn’t until a couple of weeks ago, when a friend corrected me via email.  People, I PRIDE myself on my grammar for formal writing (blog writing isn’t formal for me) (I didn’t get a 35 on the English portion of the ACT in [...]

Build Me Up, Buttercup!

This is post #197 – the Giveaway post is coming soon.  I figured it would happen a lot quicker, but I’ve been seriously tired the past couple of weeks, so the blog posting is slow (and I don’t have much to post about).  I do have a fun idea in mind for some extra entries [...]

Flurry of Finishes

So after not completing ANY projects in the month of January, I’m finally on my way to getting some of these things off my plate.
First up, the B&W couch quillow. This is how it looks all pillowed-up; it’s very small (11×12, I think), which makes sense, since the quilt is only a yard of fabric [...]
