I'm sorry but keeping up here on LJ has been kind of hard. I'm even doing the fabricpostcard swap and I haven't updated. I've been feeling run down & had problems even blogging on my own site. Here's a rundown of what I've done with links to my blog:

From now on I'm just going to post intros and synopsizes here and you can click the link to my blog if you want to see more. It's also easier to edit when I need to because i seem to post when I'm tired a lot.I'll also make full posts to comms, then you can comment where/when ever you feel comfy.

So I couldn't help myself & went back to Jo Ann's ( Read more... )

Lately I've been wanting to sew but I haven't been able to decide what i want to sew. I keep seeing so many awesome projects online and not able to choose one. I did eventually manage to get off the computer and sew up a couple of things, so far, this week.

Me & the kids played around with the Slice machine after working on a project for my 10 yo son. He did a research project on VCU for March Madness.

It was a kit we ( Read more... )

I was in the JoAnn's Monday buying grommets when I happened to notice their original model Slice machines were on clearance. I had just seen the new Slice Elite at Hobby Lobby the previous weekend and noticed there was an applique' card you could buy for it. Also, I Have A Notion reviewed the new Slice Fabrique on their blog earlier this month. ( Read more... )

Well I'm back, I think. The main reason I've been gone is because I work retail and this Holiday season the store I work at did better than most. A lot of stuff came in and a lot went out. That lasted from October through the first week in January. Then just as it wound down, I had a week to catch up on my neglected housework and then my husband's ( Read more... )

Seriously, I just can't get this blogging thing down. I think it would be easy to document what I've been doing at least once a week, but preferably twice. I'm actually doing stuff to blog about but I have a hard time documenting. Right now, I have a horrible cold so I'm sitting back in my comfy chair and finally updating. Nothing like an illness ( Read more... )

I've worked on my hexies and I've gotten them all basted. Here are the next ones I've worked on:
