Up and running!

My etsy site is up and running now. 4 pin cushions listed @ least 21 more to go!!! :) $9 of each purchase will be donated to Race for the Cure and I'm probably way too proud of myself right now for finally getting it going but it's 1 in the morning and I'm too tired to control myself! Good night world!!! See you tomorrow for more wacky adventures in my land!!!!

Kindle Covers for a Cure

Starting on the 15th of March I will be doing what I call Kindle Covers for a Cure on my etsy page. When you purchase something from my page... which will be mostly Kindle covers... 85% of it will go to Susan G. Komen for the Cure. I will be donating the proceeds to a family friend's Race for the Cure donation page. So look for items to go up on my page soon and purchase something to help a wonderful cause. Let's kick breast cancer's butt!!!! :)

I think I've figured it out but....

the glue I had to use makes it smell really really strong!!! I have to wait to see if the smells goes away completely if it doesn't I will have to figure out a different way to secure it. Let's hope it works and the smell doesn't take too long to disappear so I can get it up and posted.

Soooo close and yet soooo far!!!

I had my first thing to all made and ready to put up on etsy... then I showed it to the hubby and he had a good point! I need to work on how I assemble the item! My problem now is how to attach fabric to silicone bakeware???? Oh and of course the man that would have all the ideas and suggestions is out of town til tomorrow!!! :(  Guess I will have to wait for now.

I just got an awesome Kindle cover pattern that I can't wait to make!!! If only I had my own Kindle to put in one! :) Oh well someday!

I am also working on a circle quilt that will be wonderful... or at least I hope!

Oh and on Saturday I'm teaching my nine year old cousin how to quilt!!! :) She got to pick out her fabric tonight and she is super super excited to start! Saturday should be a blast.

Wow it's been a long time!

It's interesting I almost forgot all about this blog. So much has changed! I am now the very proud mommy of a beautiful baby girl named Ava Elizabeth... she is already going to be 6 months old next Friday! Crazy!

My sewing skills have majorly improved since the last round of pics I have posted. I've decided to take up quilting and really am looking forward to getting things made and listed on on my etsy page! :) So look for more to follow.
My goal is to get this blog up and running and maybe get some followers by the end of this year!!! :D
