My Motto

Make what I want, want what I make and love doing it!

People who are successful and love their jobs are always following their passions.  I love sewing, embroidery, small amounts of quilting.  My goal is to bring those favorites things in to some focus and help support my family.  That's what I want to do in life...something that makes me smile every time its work time.      

I like certain things.  I like certain colors.  I have my style.  I have never considered myself an artist but in some way I guess I am and as an artist, I need to make what inspires me.

Here are some of the things I have been working on for 2011...Enjoy!

 Some great stuff in the works...Valentines Pillows (yes, it's already another holiday)!

Can be personalized just for you or someone special!

Day to Day...

Things are good.  Life is moving along.  K is enjoying school and has a school dance next week.  Z and L love their school. 

I have been working on organizing my/our office and my craft space...love it.  I could do without the pink walls but I will put that on the "projects for another time" list

I think I am getting my mojo back...haven't done too much with my hands lately except unpacking so a bit of hand sewing was in order yesterday.

Here are some of my unfinished projects that I think I will tackle before any new ones...

This will be a wall hanging for Ms. K's room!

Lili's wall hanging!

Not sure what these will be...probably small wall hangings or incorporated into pillows to sell

Not sure when I made this but when I was unpacking craft boxes, found it.  LOVE IT and I did a darn good job with it too!!!

It feels good to feel settled enough to get back to the things I really enjoy.  My hands like being busy and I love having my inspiration back in one, organized place.
