Star Whores!

He He... So I love this stitchery i just got done! I'm so excited to give it to my big brother for his 30th birthday! I was inspired by a similar star wars stitchery someone did on tea towels. I thought of my brother the moment I saw this so I'm very proud that I got it done in time! So happy birthday to my brother tomorrow!

Tomorrow is suppose to be really nice out! I'm very excited, I'm heading to Sioux Falls to go bridesmaid dress shopping for my Best Friend Bobbies wedding. I'm not to ready for the trying on of all the dresses but hopefully we find something good!

That's all for now! Later

My Day off

So I've had some days off, but they were for Alex's birthday. Today was a day for me, finally. I finished some things I had started. It feels good to get things ends tied up. I also cleaned up my craft room and orginized it a little bit. Now it feels good to go into my craft room and enjoying making stuff.




My new purse I entered in the Amy Bulter purse contest. http://flickr.com/groups/623401@N21/ There are some really cute purses in this contest, I'm very inspired.





I finally turned my Tank Girl emboridery into a pillow! I working on a Star Wars project, I have until the end of this month to get it done, wish me luck!





Made something for the shop today. Its easy being crafty when you have Amy Butler fabric. Also put grandmas wash cloths up for sale on the shop. Check it out! http://www.etsy.com/shop.php?user_id=5076269



As for the rest of the night, dishes, and American Idol! Here are my favorites so far;

Love these singers I hope they go far!


Ooooh and I love tator tot cassorole even though Alex hates it, I got to enjoy it tonight and I frozen the rest for supper enjoyment later!

Super Bowl, Super stupid if you asked me!

So I'm not a big fan of football. I will follow the Packers, in honor of my family but to sit and watch 4 plus hours of football, not fun for me. I treated the boys with good food, I slow cooked ribs and they were delious! I'm just glad I have a computer and Peggle to run away to.
I've been sticking to my promise to make something each week. I made this cute I pod holder from my Doodle Stitching book, http://www.amazon.com/Doodle-Stitching-Fresh-Embroidery-Beginners/dp/1600590616/ref=pd_bbs_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1202086411&sr=8-1
I also went to Mineapolis market with my boss last weekend. I got to help pick out great things for the store and I finally got to see amy butler fabric up close. I saved money so I could stock up. This is what I went with,

I just grabed whatever jumped out at me. I really love her stuff! Got a bag pattern and I'm using the grey fabric on it, I'm excited to get it done.


I also saw a really cute necklace I made from clasps, such a great idea!


E-quilter came out with wizard of oz fabric. Its really great! I found this pattern on a site and I'm just waiting for my mom to make me something:) hehe.



I really cant imagine what it feels like, I really wanna touch it.


The sepia tones are really cool!

The wicked witch is really my favorite, this would make perfect pj pants.


At market I saw the largest display of wizard of oz collectables! I really wanted something but my bosses store is more primitive and less collectable. 200 dollar minium to order:( Someday...


They had bobbly head they were soo cute!
Thats all for now, enjoy the game all you football lovers!
