I Missed My Own Blogoversary...

I've been so busy with my head & hands in other things lately that I completely forgot about my own blogoversary!  At least I'm still in the right month.  I started this blog 3 years ago, April 11th, 2008.  It's been a great experience mostly because of meeting so many wonderful people in the sewing and craft world.  You all have made my life richer and better because of your warm hearts, brilliant minds and creative energy.  I've been blessed to meet some of you...like Carolyn, Alethia & Sheila from NJ & NY (this was more thrilling to me than you know) and I hope to get to meet more of you all in the coming months & years through the PatternReview & other Meet-ups.  Though I don't get to sew as much as I'd like this keeps my mind thinking & creating until I can actually get in my sewing room and that is a good thing.  Thanks so much for stopping by my blog both new and old friends, no matter where you are, you are a treasure to me.  So, to celebrate I have a give away...
All sewers can use an extra pair of scissors & thread clips and it's always nice to have another pin cushion around.  And to send a special greeting to another sewing friend these cute little sewing note cards (there's two each or three different designs, 6 in all).
Just leave a comment that you are interested in the give away and I pull a name and announce the winner on this Saturday April 30th! 

 
HAPPY SEWING!

HAPPY EASTER!!

I wish everyone a glorious and Happy Easter!  What an awesome day to celebrate...

He is Risen!  Be Blessed!

It's finally done...

My jacket is finally done,

I know it took me long enough, huh?  Work and other stuff just keeps getting in the way.  Work stress is kind of leveling out now so I hope I'm over the hump there.  I still need a dress to wear with this jacket but now I'm not in the mood for dark colors, I need to get moving on the spring & summer sewing.   So, I took some time off work to get a head start on the weekend.  I'm going to stay in my sewing room until I come up with a plan.   So, I'll check in later to share what I've come up with.

More later...

Happy Sewing!!
