Since I blogged last

  • I've been too lazy to take pictures.
  • I finished the boy's shirts for their recital yesterday. I didn't alter the patterns at all due to time constraints. They were large, but looked just fine. It's was really neat to see my 2 Rays performing. I'm glad we chose to do dance this year and we're in the process of deciding if we will continue. We unfortunately will no longer be able to continue with our dance studio. It's over an hour away and there are closer alternatives. Rok and I are very sad about this but it's just too much expendature of our time, money, car, lives etc. to go that far.
  • I cut the boy's hair.
  • I sewed 3 tote bags that Ms. Gina, the studio owner requested as gifts for the other three instructors. These bags like almost all of the others were original designs.
  • I've been knitting a blanket in the round. It's going to be a large circle. It's all one color a creamy white wool blend soft yarn, but on each increase I knit an increasingly larger section. I've been playing with different stitch patterns within the sections to give it a sampler look.
  • I got some new sock yarn.
  • I got some new yarn to make a really cool sweater.
  • I've got some organic bamboo and organic cotton fabric to make some clothes. Very yummy fabric.
  • I've aquired 5 more patterns (a little sadistic huh?)
  • I made carmel popcorn.

Birky socks


I finally finished these socks on the drive back from Michigan last week. . . lots has happened since I blogged last. Let's just say it's too much to blog in detail but the short is that there's been crazy things happening. I plan to be blogging more soon, but I've also got many things in the pot so I may not have time.
1. I need to cut, sew and fit the boy's recital costumes by Saturday for photos.
2. Start working on Rocky's Father's day present
3. Paint my sewing room and get the shelves up so I stop tripping over the stuff that belongs on the shelves
4. re-cover a barstool for my bil
5. finish Jada's bassinet
6. sew covers for SBS, name her, and with one for Grace
7. get a belt for Grace
8. finish the cotton socks I started
9. work on the blanket I'm knitting
10. there's probably more but I can't think of it right now.
Stay tuned, there will be updates as I get to blogging them.
