Episode 34 Show Notes: Organizing with Crafty Projects
I can't believe I made a skirt! If you want to see the original inspiration, check out Amy Hooper's tutorial from Moda Bake Shop. I ended up coming up with my own design. The fabric is vintage sheets. Very comfy, and fun to twirl.
My Raggedy Ann "coloring book" embroidery project in progress - My sister Kelly will be so proud!
Check out all this thread I got at the Sewing Room sale held by my guild- only $8 for all this, plus a seam ripper, machine needles and a pair of stork embroidery scissors.
Here's the boxy bag I made, using Three Bears tutorial - I use it to carry all my chargers and cords when travelling.

I love the skirt. The fabric is adorable. Great job!
Yeah... I figured out how to comment... I am listening to you while I comment. I find your quilting segments inspiring... even though I do not make projects I love looking at your stuff.
I do not understand twitter... do you do it from your phone? or do you do it from you computer. I can handle using the computer but I can not use my phone at work... TEXTING AND TWITTERING ETC is forbidden... Who would want a nurse on the phone while taking care of patients.
I also do not understand FLICKER I posted pictures but never got connected to your group.. not sure how to do it.
You would have to go to my blog to see my pictures... I finally figured out how to blog.

Loved your Raggedy Anne emboidery... If I ever retire I hope to get back into emboidery. Right now quilting and grandbabies use up my free time.
You have such great stuff! I just wanted to let you know that I just blogged about you at http://allthingscupcake.com.
You are correct, I am proud of that Raggedy Ann embroidery! Wowsers! Can't wait to see it in person!
Your Raggedy Ann embroidery is so cute. I'm gonna have to find me some coloring books, too. I just joined Flickr, just don't know how to join your group:(
