for Christmas this year, my wonderful husband got me exactly what i wanted. This is a very impressive feat for him. Normally, his well intentioned self gets me something that i did indeed ask for, it just may have been two or three holidays ago…keeping the “surprise” alive, he says.

this is my new toy…

some people want video games, some want techy gps thingies, some want watches, or jewelry, or even boxes of bubble wrap (by far the most original gift i heard of someone wanting this year).

Not me…i want to sew.

do i know how? now i do. mom gave me the crash course on straight stitching so i could make this pillow for ellie for valentine’s day.

mom is a rock star!

hopefully, my projects will increase in difficulty (along with my time) in order for me to make really cool things…i’ll keep you posted!
