New Projects

Thanksgiving weekend was a total cricut crafting event. I spent my entire four days off doing cricut projects. It was so much fun. Two of the days I had friends over to craft. I made Star Wars bookmarks for the kids. I stenciled glass jars for hours. I made a demo of a monogram I am working on for the fireplace. I definitely filled up on cricuting. We did some furniture rearrangement so now my sewing machine is in the guest room aka craft room aka sewing room. I finally have my own room. I got a new chair and am going to decorate the room. I plan to get a project board to put above my sewing table and I want to install a new shelving unit in the closet. It is so much fun to have my own space. A space I can shut others out of when need be.

I ordered some iron on vinyl from Leslie at A place to be happy! I wanted to try it out before I invested too much in vinyl. The boys love their new Star Wars T-shirts and it was so easy to make. I can't wait to make something for myself.

I decided my next quilt project will be for me. I have two more sets of charms packs that I had earmarked for myself. I finally found a project at Moda Bake Shop that I decided to make. It is called a Stacked Coins Baby Quilt. I thought the cutting would be hard but I finished it in no time and my hands don't hurt. I think the Yoga I have started doing is really helping. Tonight I hope to begin the sewing. Then I have to find a project to make for the Twins Mother's Day Brunch. I plan to donate my first quilt to this event for the raffle. I might also donate the weekend tote I made. I am still deciding. It might make someone a cute diaper bag.
