Love Is In The Air!



I finally finished my pair of love birds this weekend and boy just getting it washed ironed and ric-rac added turn a small task into an all day ordeal.   Why you may ask did it take so long?  It is because of what I talked about last week about letting normal life begin.

I decided to just pack up things I was not using and put them in our storage unit and I think you know where this is going... I went to look for my thread to sew the ric-rac on and no thread and I could not find the right foot for my sewing machine.   ACK!  Is all I have to say so off I trot to the storage unit.

I arrive at the storage unit and what do I find out I do not have a key to the storage unit.  So back home I go and get a key to the storage unit.  About 30 min later I find all the items I was missing plus about 2 boxes of items I guess I can not live without   So now my de-cluttered house is cluttered again.   Oh man is it never ending.

In the end my towel is done and so worth it.   Hope you all enjoy.

Let Normal Life Begin!

The New Year is here and boy am I glad! I love the Holidays but my other favorite part is taking everything down and feeling somehow reborn with less clutter.

When all the clutter is gone I am able to get creative again. I am one of those that needs less clutter in order to feel creative and be productive again.  What kind of environment do you need?

Since de-cluttering I have unearthed a few Valentines Day patterns and some Easter patterns. I hope you will enjoy them.  Here is my work in progress a lovely pair of blue birds in love I am working to put up in the shop.  Hope you enjoy.
