Seven Weeks
Okay, I really don't have an explanation for why I haven't posted in 7 weeks. Maybe laziness is the best reason. There was some frantic stuff in there too, like being semi-in charge of vacation Bible School at church (which went well). Lots of sewing. Two commission quilts with firm deadlines. But I really don't have a great excuse.
Here's a cute picture of something I finished last week though. This is a baby quilt for our friend's new baby, and a "sock monkey" for the big sister. I don't know if you'll be able to see in the picture, but the quilt is made from fabric with sock monkeys on it. And I made the monkey a shirt with some of the quilt fabric too.
And for the cuteness factor, here are the kids. The other quilt behind them is the one I made for big sister when SHE was born! I decided to stick with the same pattern for baby sis to be sure I didn't step on any toes. Just different fabric!
I also had a nice sewing weekend this weekend while Mr. Oceandirt was out of town (delivering the quilt and monkey as a matter of fact). Got a lot accomplished and am in planning stages of planning a long 5 day getaway later in September when I can actually get AWAY instead of having a staycation in my house! Shore. Condo. Atlantic City 10 mins away. Sound nice?
I met Windsornot on her birthday yesterday to help her spend some money and treat her to some ice cream, which was nice. The thing I miss most about taekwondo while I'm on injured reserve is the social aspect. I especially miss the Wednesday daytime class.
That's enough for now. I'll try not to have a 7 week posting break again any time soon.
