Rainy Days are Crafty Days

This weekend is supposed to be stormy. Works for me! I need to add items to the shop!! I haven't had much time to do crafty sewing projects lately. I'm a web designer by trade so unfortunately that comes first. It's good that I've been busy but I am missing making my monster friends. I really like listening to Radio Lab, This American Life, and The Moth podcasts when I am working on sewing projects. If you haven't checked them out I highly recommend them. If anyone has others to share, please do. Happy Friday!

wow it's been a long time. see, I have another blog that you have to be a member of to even read. I don't post there often either. but keeping up two can be tough. just wanted to give you an update that I need to take some photos of some custom pieces I've made. fun stuff. I've been very busy with typical work stuff, moonlighting and being mama. more soon.

The Weekend Included Plush Monsters

Saturday was farmer's market day. Then I brought the boy to my mom's for the afternoon-evening-early-morning. I went on a lovely hike with two girlfriends. During the hike we came across this lovely view.
I also completed to monsters for a couple I know. They are moving to Jersey on Monday.
There are magnets in the lips and the hands so they stick together. This was a fun project.

Custom Project Complete!!

Yay! They are finished and the friends love them. I am very happy about that. Now it's on to making even more fun friends. I just added a few more monsters to the store.

Hope everyone had a good holiday, I'm glad it's over.

Holiday Madness and More Monsters

I am glad the holidays are over. Really. It didn't feel very Christmasy to me this year. Time spent away from home with family was good. Although I got very sick Christmas day. Not cool., Now the husband is sick. Mason now has a cold. This family is a mess!

I am glad to be back in the sewing room to take some time for experimentation. I have a lot of cool fabric and trim to play with. I will be posting new stuff soonish. Also I will be starting a contest where a lucky winner could be the owner of a fun monster fridge magnet. Stay tuned!

beeeeeyoootiful

some gifts arrived today from etsy for family members. i love getting stuff in the mail, even it it's not for me :D

No time for sewing today. Mason took no nap and I had a hell of a time working on my normal jobby type stuff. I am hoping to sew more tonight and I will trying some monster fridge magnets. watch out!
