Loads of things to do

I have been kinda busy...I have been tutoring at night and not getting home until like 7:30ish. Dan has been on overnights for the past week and a half so I see him for about an hour to an hour and a half each day real quick. I haven't got all of the stuff I wanted to get accomplished to sell for this weekend's show but I did get my FEST secret Swap done. I totally had forgotten about it and everything needed to be sent out by the 15th...


It is about bar towel size. When I made some stuff for Stacey she cut down some of my ginormous tea towels so I made the birds on that. the swap was for winter or fall themed items but I couldn't really think of what either of those meant besides holidays ( we do live in florida so it is a bit harder). I went with these birds from a pattern from annie oakleaves and made them in fall like colors. I hope she likes it.

Been feeling crappy...

Hi ya.

I have had a week wehre I feel like crapola..I was supposed to be working with reverb.org at the Counting Crows and Maroon 5 concert tonight and since I have been feeling yucky am not going. I am glad I called and gave them the heads up a couple days ago but I am sad still because a. I was looking forward to helping reverb out and b. was looking forward to a free show and the people that know me know that I am in love with Adam Duritz and his grody hair...

Here are some of the projects I completed before I was sick.

Vampire from Annie Oakleaves
Bird from my friend Amy's website

Just a cute reindeer bib

Happy Tikimas towel

I have the postcard for Handmade Holiday Bazaar but it looks jacked up when I post it her right now so I will post it later...

Been Slacking

We have been trying so hard to get things in motion for Handmade Holiday Bazaar that I have been slacking on crafting ( I did get some accomplished this weekend) and blogging.

Anywho Dan's friend came in from England on Monday, his plane got cancelled on England on Sunday so we were all exhauted Monday night and went to bed at 8:30 pm. Last night I was able to finish the witch towel below. I think it turned out cute. I need to take pics. I did borrow my dad's camera to take pics and noticed a huge difference.

Look at the close-up of the ninja if I was to take this pic with my camera it wouls have been all blurry.

pattern from urban threads
Dad's camera too.



I always spent my money on a manual camera and didn't get my first digital until 2003 and it was kinda crappy. I need to get a better one but for the time being I will borrow my dads.

I will try and write more this week, it's a goal to attain.

I am now a licensed Pimp Stich Reseller

I just sent in all of my paperwork and I am a licensed reseller of items embroidered with all of the artists over at Pimp Stich's designs. I am so happy to be a part of the Pimp Stitch Family. I will also be able to use some of Regina's designs Annie Oakleaves, Urban Threads and currently are a licensed reseller for Sublime Stitching too.

Dan and I are also continuing to work on designs for our own line as well with my friend Kittykill.

So loads of new opportunities in store for me! Locally I am working with my friend Stacey on some new crafty ventures if anyone would ever freaking call me back.

These are some new items. The brown yoga pants were a custom item and I either need to get a better camera or only take pics in the daytime..

Shout Outs!

I sent an e-mail out to a friend this morning saying how much I didn't like that I didn't get recognized a lot for my work so I wanted to write out a shout out for the people whose work I admire and have done biz with in the past or hope one day when a wad of cash falls into my life am lucky enough to be able to then.
