::Not Really Cohesive, But I Tried::

January 12, 2009 By Katie

Since we’ve been home, I’ve been running of course…I even bought myself some new shoes.  This is one of the times in the day when I “run”  all the creative ideas through my head.  Sometimes, to my delight, I even forget I’m running and make it far beyond where I had planned with little effort.  If my brain is a bowl, it overfillith… because I’ve been thinking about what to write and can’t come clear.

Here’s an effort to be cohesive:

A) Family:

Roan somewhat bloomed into the realm of crafting in the past few weeks to my gleeful enjoyment.  (That’s probably an understatement.)  He has always been an imaginative storyteller, but has recently discover drawing Cylons…don’t ask.

This is my favorite photo of the holidays.  I loved his precision.  He must be watching.

B)  Friends:

While visiting the folks, we spent time with my fabric/craft buddy and her family in Pensacola.  I neglected to take good photos of us all, but scored at the local five and dime.  Flashback city.  The ladies at the A and E Pharmacy were the real thing.  You would have passed this fabulous fabric store by had you not been with my copilot fabric fanatic friend.  Some of which I scored at 50% OFF!

C)  Home:

Now comes the part where I don’t know where to begin, back to brain confusion when running.

My sewing table pretty much says it.  Unfinished projects, new ideas, and orders.  Did I mention I joined a sewing bee?

You couldn’t sew here if you wanted to.

Oh yeah, then there are also the aprons to make for the PCC’s Kids Cooking Classes and the dreaded TAXES to finish up.  But on a brighter note of why we all sew, here’s the beautiful fabrics I was able to procure for the aprons.  I love the feel of Heather Ross’ fabric.

Sorry, I’ll proof read tomorrow.

    I love the fabrics you have. Can’t wait to see what you do with them and what you do for the quilting bee.

    the new fabrics are awesome. Are those the ones you’ll be using for the cottage quilting bee? I hope so – I’d love to sew something with those!!!

    My desk looks the same as yours. Maybe worse. I’ll fix it….one day……
