Twenty days?

It has been almost twenty days since I have last posted for you. Why?
I started my new job. It has been a tiring, draining, exhausting mind-blowing bunch of days for which I am both thankful and tired of. In my usual fashion, I have allowed this new job to overtake me, consuming my every thought and devotion. I have let my mind wander back to work when it should have been contemplating personal time and enjoying life with my Mr. Gnome.

Ready for the horrifying information?

Beginnings Anew

You know you've been sewing too long when...

I've spent the majority of today sewing. Clearly, I got a giganto-spool of white thread. I took the morning to cut many pieces, iron them and then get to work sewing all of them at once. Considering the lull I've been in (see previous few posts) this is a great step for me in the right direction. The dogs have been quiet, Mr. Gnome has been putting in some overtime at work - so I get to jam out to some music and have some quality time with my sewing machine.

New Listing and Question for YOU!

So, I was able to be crafty a LITTLE bit during the past week. So without further adieu I present the Spring Magnolias Tote:

 

I've got the itch!!

I feel like I keep apologizing lately for the lack of posting. So I'll apologize again... I've got the itch! It feels like spring has sprung early in my area and the beautiful weather has been prohibiting me from sitting inside behind my sewing machine. I can't seem to help myself.
