Yay!! Guess what I won?!?!?!

Recently I entered a giveaway over at Sew Like My Mom's site. Just like every one else, I'll click on that little enter me button not expecting to win... but this time I did!!


Last week, I went ahead and just clicked the enter button for Sew Like My Mom's 5,000,000 Pageview Giveaway. I figured it wouldn't hurt but I probably wouldn't win. (I enter these things all the time over at Young House Love and never win. Hint, hint, universe!)

Thoughtful Thursday

 Erm... Thoughtful Saturday??


On Thursdays, I will post a few of things that I have been thinking about. This includes projects that I thinking of creating, thoughts about life and family and just general get-it-out-there-and-out-of-my-head ramblings.

I am....

... hopeful that I am finally done with this stomach virus! Yes, I was the lucky girl who got the stomach virus twice in less than three weeks. 

... excited about finishing up the totes that I made for MJ's collection. Right now I have almost six completed but I have enough fabric left that I should be able to make another two or three. I pointedly made them happy and fun. I wanted them to be super happy. :)

Work in Progress...

... no more! 


I have finally finished the baby quilt that I used in making my Perfect Baby Gift tutorial! Meaning, that I finally gave it to the baby's parents!

All of these photographs were actually taken at my office before start of business! 
Completely forgot to take pictures before I left home!

Getting Out of a Slump with A Wonderful Cause

Lately, I've been a bit of slump with my sewing and crafting. I got super excited about creating my header and images but then hit a wall. I am having trouble making my quilting labels (something wrong with the application, I think). Plus, I have so many ideas that I am just frustrated because I cannot pick one. Also, good ole' Louisiana weather has been kicking my booty with all the weather changes and I've been sick with allergies and horrible sinus pressure.

I am on the mend. Hopefully, fingers crossed. But I still haven't set foot in my sewing room. Most nights I've curled up on the couch, enjoyed Netflix, and played on my Kindle Fire. But today, I stumbled across an awesome idea...

I am....

... grateful for my husband. He drives me insane sometimes but I know that he truly loves me. Today's gesture: putting away the dishes in the dish drainer before I had even woke up. Yes, that's love. :)

... excited about the changes that I have made to my blog and about the plans I have coming up.

My New Look

So excited about my new look and I'm not taking my physical look though that's about to change too! (That's for a different day!)

I decided to change up the entire look of my blog! The background and the header in particular. I wanted to make the blog more me. Which if you can't do that what's the point of blogging.


Of course, that being said, I have actually made two different headers and keep switching them back and forth! I can't decide! :)
Here's option 1:

Here's option 2:


Option 2 is the one that I am currently using and leaning toward. I like that I have room to insert new pictures if I get tired of the current ones as I create new projects.
