Skulls, skulls, skulls

By on March 22, 2019

I seem to have a bit of an affinity for fabrics with skulls on them. Last year Twisted Needle Textiles had the perfect round for me, too! Lots of skulls, so I purchased several different fabrics in different bases and even ordered more when they had a rerun round. This fabric was from the first […]

Summer capsule – addendum

By on September 18, 2018

I thought I would do a blog post on the status of my summer capsule.  I wore it a lot more this summer, as I was working from home, so it was more practical to wear my comfy clothes than office wear.  One of the perks of working from home! In the spring of 2017 […]

This week I decided to pick up my loom again, and finished this with a few sessions of binge watching Netflix after dinner. I used the pink Knifty Knitter loom that is 9.5″ long on the base.   It’s the smallest one.  I usually use the green one for my wider cowls that I join […]

By on January 21, 2018

This week was more sporadic.  I had Monday off of work, so I spent the day sewing and didn’t take a shower until right before I went to bed.  I was also sick all damn week.  I got a head cold the weekend before and dang if it didn’t hang on with big hairy paws.  […]

Well last week was a bit of a bear.  I worked until 7pm each night, and worked most of the day on Sunday.  By the time Monday rolled around again…I was very tired.  Luckily I had a bunch of outfits made up in my closet, so it was a bit brainless just to pick something […]

Here we are at the beginning of another year!  They seem to be going by faster the older I get.  Time sure has sped up the last few years.  It is hard to believe that I have a teenager and almost a teenager, and that hubs and I will be celebrating 20 years wed this […]

OOTD – Week of December 11

By on December 17, 2017

Well, this week started out with my birthday, which when you get older…isn’t really all that exciting.  There are no wild parties and you are happy you don’t have to cook for dinner.  Generally, I buy myself something nice and say “Thanks for the present!” So…exciting. Here is the week of Me Mades, which included […]

OOTD – Week of November 27

By on December 5, 2017

I decided to try to do an outfit post to show how I wear my Me Mades on a daily basis.  This might be a bit intermittent depending on how much time I have to take pictures in the morning.  I usually wear at least one Me Made per day.  This will also give me […]
