Getting Spoiled!

DH must love me and appreciate all of my work and stress over the past year!

For the past 2 days I have actually had time to get some sewing done! I managed to organize my 4 feet of space enough to work on some blocks. How fun is that! A while back I found a pattern on a great site, The Eclectic Abuela for her Boxes of Strings pattern. It’s aContinueContinue reading “Some Sewing Happened!”

I’m Done!

Finished the last of the dump runs yesterday. The move was completed October 31st, just on time. I. Wasn’t sure I’d get it done but I did. From 3500 sq t home with a 30′ X 80′ shop to 500 sq ft apartment! My studio space is about 6′ X 3′ now! Oh well it’sContinueContinue reading “I’m Done!”

Happy Happy Day

Seams to be Sewn. Moving day is October 15th for the move to our temporary home. Happy Birthday to me! I will be getting the keys next week and have already measured and sorted what goes where. I was a bit concerned that the light might not be adequate but today something wonderful happened! IContinueContinue reading “Happy Happy Day”

Funny how things change!

Yesterday was DH’s regular weekly doctor’s appointment in Nelson, BC. Stopped to get the groceries on my list and new SIM cards for our phones. Then I had to haul butt to the Golf course. We met Pat and signed a rental agreement. So it is now decided. After living in a 3700 square footContinueContinue reading “Funny how things change!”

The Move Is On!

As I have been packing the Studio and the 2 upstairs bedrooms I have been filling the spare room with boxes and stuff. So Mikey decidedContinueContinue reading “The Move Is On!”

News’s

it has been too long since I posted but it has been weird here this summer! We had a pending sale of the property which dragged on for months. You know the drill; everything 3/4 packed , purged and sorted, living out of boxes, no time to fondle fabric. Then the fires started in BCContinueContinue reading “News’s”

Sunny Days!

For the first time in a month we have Internet! I’m so happy to be back in touch with the world. Time for an update:I finished all of the costumes (47 of them) and am proud to say there was an amazing array of herbs, flowers, trees, dwarves, princesses and evil kings dancing around theContinueContinue reading “Sunny Days!”

Progress!

I am starting to get excited! Things are progressing here. First of all, only 2 more costumes and one rose crown to finish for the school. Not bad for only having 2 weeks to get them done. At first I was told they needed 37 costumes. With changes in design and the addition of 2ContinueContinue reading “Progress!”

Winter Fun

This has been a busy winter, fondling fabric and a trip to Alberta to look after my two youngest granddaughters for a few days while Mom attending a seminar and Dad was working. We had too much fun feeding animals and building an ice and snow castle. We also began our first sewing lessons, andContinueContinue reading “Winter Fun”
