School and Other Things

Good Morning, Lovelies!

I hope this is finding everyone well this morning.  "I" is sick and home from school.  We are headed to the doctor this afternoon.  Praying it's not that nasty virus going around and praying that brother, "N", doesn't get sick since he has a hard time recovering once ill.  I have been pumping him full of OJ, Vitamin C, Airborne and Vitamins trying to boost his immune system.  I'm hoping it's just a sinus infection since the season has changed dramatically here.  We went from Hot Summer to Cool
Fall all in a span of one day.

Anyway, I finished my latest weighted blanket so I thought I would share it with you.  It turned out super cute.  My new little gadget that I installed on my sewing machine has made sewing these tricky things so much easier.  Feeling blessed!


I am now starting work on a matching order of regular weighted blankets for a daycare.  Will post when I am finished with the first.  I just absolutely LOVE this fabric!!!

Ciao Ciao Brown Cow!

Busy Week/end

It has been such a busy last week and weekend.  It is looking like this week is more of the same.  It is amazing how busy your life becomes when you add a little project here and a little activity there.  Next thing you know your calendar is booked up!

So last Wednesday I completed this amazingly awesome lap pad.  Did I take a picture of it?  NOOOOO!  Of course not.  I didn't realize that little fact until I arrived home from the post office.  I do have the first one I did though.  I was over half way done with it when I decided that I really didn't like the stitching on this project.  What does that mean?  It means that I remade this customer's order in 1 day so I could get it out to her the day that I said.  I want my customers to be happy with the product that they purchase.  I try to put myself in their shoes and look at the creations that I make.  If I am not happy with it (and honestly,... I am my own worst judge) then I don't want to give it to someone else that might not be happy with it.  Anyway, here is the first one that I made....


It is a great thing that I pushed and got this order out because a few days later everyone in my house came down with a bug.  Thankfully after such a busy week we had nothing except a birthday party that was planned.  After declining our RSVP, we laid around and recovered.  The boys got to watch a Muppets Movie.  Daddy went up and borrowed Sister's TV and DVD player so "I" and "N" could watch the movie while we sat in the living room and watched football.


So Monday was the start of my work week.  The boys were off school for Fair Day, but I went ahead and worked.  "N" is way to sensitive to the sounds that occur at a fair so we just stay home.  They played and had ABA therapy.  I sewed.  So below is a picture of the fabric that I am working with to make blankets for a daycare.  Seriously, how cute is this fabric?!  I am fairly partial to bears anyhow.  I will post later in the week with some pictures of the blankets.  




Have a great week!
