New Creations...

I have been so busy with summer school,
I have hardly been to the sewing machine.
I managed to finish a few totes in the last 3 weeks or so.
Here are some preliminary pictures. I will post hopefully this
Saturday on my etsy store http://www.itsthebag.etsy.com/ .
I especially love the flower print on the brown bag. It's a Michael Miller print I got from one of my favorite quilt shops, http://www.patchworkpenguin.com/
The proprietress has many beautiful fabrics to choose from. (among other things)

What a day!

What a great day for sewing. Just finished cleaning the house and we also cleaned the boys' closet. What a task that was. We ended up with several large bags of give away clothes, shoes and cleats. I am glad someone else will get to use them.

So now I am of to sew. (Especially since the NASCAR race is starting)

Post 4th

Well, we had a great time yesterday. It ended up being a full fledged party. We had 20 people over for the carne asada fest that included roasted eggplant, turkey burgers, fresh fruit, and a huge chocolate birthday cake for my brother-in-law. We all had a great time and enjoyed the fireworks we could see from Hansen Dam.

Happy 4th of July!!




Happy 4th to all. We are getting ready for a bbq with some friends. I especially like that we can see the fireworks from Hansen Dam . A nice traditional carne asada meal will be served, with all the fixins' including a cactus salad.
