He is a HUGE blessing and I feel like we are so lucky to have him in all our lives. Here are a few boastful mom things that I love about him<br /><br />1. the good morning hugs I get when I am able to get him out of bed.<br /><br />2. his giggles they crack me up<br /><br />3. how clever he is. I see so much of my hubby and myself in him.<br /><br />4. when he smiles I see glimpses of myself and my dad in him.<br /><br />5. how my grandma shortly before passing called him lazy because he wasn't walking and less than 24 hours after she passed he started walking all of the time.<br /><br />6. how he makes me feel awesome everyday and brings such joy to our lives.<br /><br /><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_VCTHoeM1ZbY/TTUN20YlgSI/AAAAAAAABQQ/8p7c6swzhRU/s1600/sammyhappy.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 291px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5563368150111977762" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_VCTHoeM1ZbY/TTUN20YlgSI/AAAAAAAABQQ/8p7c6swzhRU/s400/sammyhappy.jpg" /></a><br /><br />This is an old pic of when he got his 1st awful haircut 3 months ago.

I haven't been doing as much crafting as I used to but I do as much as time allows. I am working on items for my most favorite show <a href="http://www.atomicholidaybazaar.com/">Atomic Holiday Bazaar. </a>The show is December 11th-12th in Sarasota.

I was worried about him and couldn't focus on my school work or reading so I sent away for the Sublime Stitching Kit and taught myself how to embroider. I totally sucked at the beginning but now it has been 4 years and I can't believe it.

She came down ith Alzheimers when I was 6 so I only have a few fond memories of her. She lived my a Syms in south Florida and a Toys R Us. She would go with me to Toys R Us and buy me colorformas and play with me for hours on the sliding glass door in her apartment. She was always super kind to everyone. She took care of my Grandfather until he passed away when I was 5 and then I think she didn't know what else to do. She was so focused on taking care of him , she got kind of lost after he died. I think she would have thought Etsy was fabulous, I am not sure if she was super crafty but she was a terrible cook. My dad said she would make bad mashed potatos..sewitsforyouhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14210754892959876990noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-815710450869969300.post-60620294035805754812010-05-25T09:38:00.006-05:002010-05-25T09:55:45.433-05:00Exciting News!Exciting News for Sew It's For You<br /><br /><p align="center"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5475217696735480962" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_VCTHoeM1ZbY/S_vhfHnZzII/AAAAAAAABIM/iHCRMIG-_YM/s400/kitty1.jpg" /><br />Embroidered Mitch O'Connell Hoodie<br /><br /><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_VCTHoeM1ZbY/S_vhfaJO0EI/AAAAAAAABIU/VPhvYY7FUME/s1600/kitty2.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 300px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5475217701709205570" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_VCTHoeM1ZbY/S_vhfaJO0EI/AAAAAAAABIU/VPhvYY7FUME/s400/kitty2.jpg" /></a><br />Embroidered Mitch O'Connell Kitty Towel</p><p><br /><a href="http://www.mitchoconnell.com/">Mitch O'Connell </a>is a FANTASTIC tattoo artist and designer. His art has been featured all over the globe. I embroidered a couple of his designs in the past and they are featured along with some other embroidered works on his <a href="http://www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=175048&id=537909600&l=10b718cdaa">Facebook page</a>. This is super cool, he actually wrote back to me when I sent him these images and was very nice and appreciative that I shared with him!<br /><br /><br />10 Reasons to use Envirosax<br /><br />Before I started to sell Envirosax I used them and fell in love. My first set was the Retro Kitchen Design. In light of what is going on with the HUGE BP oil spill in the Gulf I thought is would be a good time to look at being a little more green.<br /><br />1. Envirosax are Reusable.<br />2. They are much stronger than plastic or paper bags ( they can hold up to 44 pounds).<br />3. They are water-resistant, 100% washable and won't fade.<br />4. They are compact. They fit great in a purse or glove box and fold up to the size of a piece of sushi, 4" by 1.5" diameter. It weighs in at just 1.4oz<br />5. They are way more cute than paper or plastic bags. There are designs for everyone!<br />6. You will save 5 cents for each one you use at your local Target store.<br />7. They are made to be used over and over again.<br />8. They are a great alternative to gift bags.<br />9. They are perfect for diaper, beach and pool bags for wet clothes.<br />10. They are manufactured by a company that only does Fair Trade and offers Fair Wages.<br /><br /><br />Newest Envirosax Designs<br /><br />These are some of the newer designs from Envirosax. They are made from<br />RPET. The 45% RepreveĀ® in the ENVIROSAX RPET is made up of 100% recycled content, with 80% pre-consumer and 20% post-consumer recycled polyester content (mainly plastic bottles).<br />The Slingsax are adjustable( the first two pictures) so if you want to wear them on your shoulder or across your chest you make them fit for you. The minisax ( the bottom two pictures)are super cute and have a space to hold a cup or water bottle. They are great to hold snacks or bottles for the kids. Both types of bags are 100% washable and can be rolled up for compact easy storage.<br /><br />*ANY ORDER OVER $50.00 YOU WILL RECEIVE A FREE MINISAX..ANY ORDERS OVER $100 YOU WILL RECEIVE A FREE ENVIROSAX.**<br /><br /></p><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_VCTHoeM1ZbY/S_vi43WHGLI/AAAAAAAABJM/I1I9XJ_ZGlk/s1600/ss_b2_bag_shoulder_1.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5475219238556211378" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_VCTHoeM1ZbY/S_vi43WHGLI/AAAAAAAABJM/I1I9XJ_ZGlk/s400/ss_b2_bag_shoulder_1.jpg" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_VCTHoeM1ZbY/S_vi4tLAHPI/AAAAAAAABJE/TSH0XGoQfLw/s1600/ss_b3_bag_1_1.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5475219235825261810" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_VCTHoeM1ZbY/S_vi4tLAHPI/AAAAAAAABJE/TSH0XGoQfLw/s400/ss_b3_bag_1_1.jpg" /> <p align="center"></a></p><br />Slingsax $14.00<br /><br /><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_VCTHoeM1ZbY/S_vjfRs-6vI/AAAAAAAABJc/Lr_c2Mia-rE/s1600/ms_b1_bag_1.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5475219898466495218" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_VCTHoeM1ZbY/S_vjfRs-6vI/AAAAAAAABJc/Lr_c2Mia-rE/s400/ms_b1_bag_1.jpg" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_VCTHoeM1ZbY/S_vi4NObBjI/AAAAAAAABI0/pPKEZ4h3eQY/s1600/ms_b2_hand.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5475219227249673778" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_VCTHoeM1ZbY/S_vi4NObBjI/AAAAAAAABI0/pPKEZ4h3eQY/s400/ms_b2_hand.jpg" /> <p align="center"></a></p><br /><br /><br />Mini Sax $5.00<br /><br /><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_VCTHoeM1ZbY/S_vi4fbAewI/AAAAAAAABI8/2-0pDS3fs70/s1600/st_pouch_rolled_bags.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5475219232134298370" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_VCTHoeM1ZbY/S_vi4fbAewI/AAAAAAAABI8/2-0pDS3fs70/s400/st_pouch_rolled_bags.jpg" /></a><br /><br />Sesame Street Pouch $40.00 includes (1) of each bag Grover, Big Bird, Cookie Monster, Elmo and Oscar.<br />The Sesame Street Sets are selling out quickly.

One of the best summers I ever spent was in 2002 when I moved to attend the Academy of Art in San Francisco. I had just graduated with my Master's degree and won a fellowship to attend AA for the summer. I was so excited to finally do something creative. I signed up for a photo storyboarding class and a production class.<br /><br />The day I arrived in SF it was hot as hell. My friend, Alex came to pick me up and his truck has no a/c. I had sent a lot of my things ahead of time to SF for my place and Alex was kind enough to accept them at his work and schlep me to my place. The next day I work up and I swear it was like 40 degrees, totally freezing. <br /><br />I met so many amazing people that summer. I was around all of these incredible artists that just fed my soul. I was taking pictures again on a daily basis, doing things without a care, being reckless and loving it. My classes didn't really count for anything but I went everyday and made 2 A's and they meant more to me than any other A I had ever made.<br /><br />I was very sad to leave SF. It was a great summer full of fantastic culture, art, people, food and drinks. I think it was the summer I truly grew up. It shaped the rest of my journey to allow me to move on and make some of the best decisions I have ever made.sewitsforyouhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14210754892959876990noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-815710450869969300.post-24727460367787639292010-05-10T16:03:00.003-05:002010-05-10T16:13:13.966-05:00Etsykids Me and MatildaI was just going through some etsykids shops for the thread and I came upon the most adorable shop called <a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop/MeandMatilda">Me and Matilda</a>. The have all sorts of stuff for fancy ( or not so fancy occasions) for little girls and boys ( and adults too)..<br /><p><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_VCTHoeM1ZbY/S-h1y5a8qkI/AAAAAAAABH0/_iNY57sq7TI/s1600/tie+3.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 298px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5469751264709225026" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_VCTHoeM1ZbY/S-h1y5a8qkI/AAAAAAAABH0/_iNY57sq7TI/s400/tie+3.jpg" /></a> My son looks really good in blue. I am not sure where he would need a tie at 7 1/2 months old right now but I adore this.<br /><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_VCTHoeM1ZbY/S-h1ySiClQI/AAAAAAAABHs/rpLWWn_1ILY/s1600/tie2.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 371px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5469751254269990146" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_VCTHoeM1ZbY/S-h1ySiClQI/AAAAAAAABHs/rpLWWn_1ILY/s400/tie2.jpg" /></a> The red bird and blue tie make such a nice looking piece.<br /></p><p> </p><p> </p><p><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_VCTHoeM1ZbY/S-h1xyji7rI/AAAAAAAABHk/d0GTD3jwIH8/s1600/tie1.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 295px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5469751245686369970" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_VCTHoeM1ZbY/S-h1xyji7rI/AAAAAAAABHk/d0GTD3jwIH8/s400/tie1.jpg" /></a></p><br />I love the vintage feel of this tie. I may have to get one for the hubby and the son. The colors are great and it just looks like fun and well most ties don't look like fun!<br /><br />So go check out this shop <a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop/MeandMatilda">Me and Matilda</a>.sewitsforyouhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14210754892959876990noreply@blogger.com1
