Not a Polka Dot anywhere!

Why is it when you have an order for a specific dress with a specific fabric it is no where to be found. 

I spent all day going to every fabric store in Utah county looking for black polka dot fabric.  Who would have ever thought how hard it would be to find.  No worries though I now have it in hand.

How is it that in the process one spends $200 looking for 2 yds. of fabric. 

It's a woman thing!

Lazy Day

I couldn't tear my way away from the coverage of the earthquake in Japan.  How horrible and terrifying for the people affected. 

It goes to show we truly have no control.  Mother Nature has a mind of her own and she is all powerful.

Back to work for 4 days.  See you later. 

Pray for Japan.

I promise I have an excuse...It's Suzy's fault!

Sorry Suzy!  She kept me out running around and shopping all day and she even made me eat at Cafe Rio.  She is so bad!

Ok ok so maybe it was partly my idea, but only partly. 

I did get one thing done.  I have proof.

Look...

Here we go again!

3 days off!  Woo Hoo!

I have so been looking for this day.  More sewing and creating. 

If your little princess doesn't have an American Girl yet.  Shame on you.  I am very impressed with the beating these dolls can take.  My grand daughters fix their hair daily and believe me they get very fancy.  Take it down and brush it out and it looks just like new.  I wish I had American Girl hair.  :-)

Ok enough of that.  Any more and they will need to pay me for my testimonials.

I'll post my next creations soon. 

Have a fun few days and remember me hunched over the sewing machine.  Ok so I will have a smile on my face, but still hunched.  lol

PJ Day

Have you ever had one of those days?  Went down to the basement this morning in my PJ's and started sewing and it is now 10:55 pm and I just finished sewing and am still in my PJ's.  Don't tell anyone and they will never know.  :-)  Oh well I got a lot accomplished.

Stormy Thursday!?

It started off stormy this morning and gray ominous clouds were on the horizon all day threatening bad weather.  Alais they were just trying to bully us.  Wimps!

Went to Dillards to check out their 70% off sale.  Most of you won't be able to believe this, but me, yes me, left without a thing.  Shocker!

Can I go one rotation of days off with out dropping by Gracie Lou's and not buying some cute fabric?  I think not!  ;-)  I may subscribe to the philosophy that the one with the most fabric before they die wins. 

Suzy is snazzing up some plain Jane pillow shams for the girls new beds.  Bright colored rick rack is doing the trick.  Love them.

Just my first day off so hopefully more excitement ahead.  Check back to see what we have been up to.
