It’s amazing what you can accomplish when you don’t have a knitting deadline and you can work on other projects and clean. I’m not the best housekeeper in the world, but during the knitting of the test knit I just completed (YAY!), my craft room looked like several tornadoes hit it. I finally [...]

February was jam packed with stuff. I celebrated my 11th wedding anniversary, saw the beginning of a new year (Chinese New Year….year of the tiger, MY year!). I went to my first burlesque show in Asbury Park, baked cupcakes for and attended a good friend’s baby shower. Oh, and left the country [...]

It took a couple of weeks, because I had some technical difficulties and then was REALLY chicken to put in buttonholes, but the shirt is done.

I learned a lot of things while making this shirt:
- Right side of fabric vs. wrong side (this came into play when I realized I had sewn 2 of the [...]

I am home after 2 weeks of vacationing. We drove from NJ to FL (Boca Raton) with a small stop in VA, due to a snow storm that made the roads undrivable. We spent some time visiting with my mother in law, and then headed to Miami on Christmas Eve to board my [...]

Quilting first. I spent my weekend indoors, hacking up a couple lungs. When I wasn’t sleeping, and the hacking was at a minimum, I did a little knitting, and a little sewing. I finished up the quilt top!

As some of you might know already, I was in a car accident a couple weeks ago. My car is fine, though my drivers side mirror is not (though ghetto fabulous duct tape is in, right?). I am fine, except I have had back pain since. This weekend, though beautiful outside, I [...]

One more Knit Picks project that has now come out that I can blog about.

Aren’t they adorable? Pretty fun and easy to knit as well. I got very excited when I saw them in the newest catalog.
I road tripped with 2 friends last weekend to South Carolina for a tea festival. We [...]

I’m sitting here trying to think of what I’ve done in the past week since the last blog post, and I honestly can’t think of what I’ve done. Either it was really boring, or it was so packed with stuff that it kept me too busy to remember. Either way, I have pictures [...]

I haven’t had a weekend where I was home and did nothing but craft in a long time. LONG time. I got one this weekend and I enjoyed it to the fullest.
Saturday while the kid was out playing, and the hubby was out wandering thru home improvement stores, I sat in [...]
