return

i've been missing for awhile...busy with life sort of things.  after my fabulous trip to pittsburgh my machine was in the shop so i took a little break from sewing after 6 weeks of shows.  yes, i have a back up machine but it just wasn't doing it for me so i just well, stopped. 

i attended my first ever sewing circle at this adorable sewing shop called Sew Fabulous less than a mile from my house.  i made a hand towel for my kitchen that buttons around your fridge or oven or cabinet.  it was a quick and cute project!  my hope was to meet other people with similar interests but everyone was really new to sewing so they were absorbed in their projects and didn't really have time for chatting. bummer.....

then my brother visited from NYC and it was so fun.  we over ate, over drank and laughed our asses off!

which brings me to this week....i got my machine back but then worked every single day so i didn't have time or energy to sew.  i also started a new PT job in addition to my visual merchandising job.  i'm teaching painting at Painting with a Twist!  if you've never heard of it check out the website--it's a ton of fun!!
