Now that the house prep is done and we’re just sitting around (ha! yeah right), I’ve gotten back into the sewing groove. Phew. It feels good.

Next week? Binding. My hands hurt just thinking about it.

(Holy grainy photo Batman! That’s the new iPhone. I thought the camera was going to be better?)

Sean’s iPad arrived just as he was getting the kids into the bath. Poor Sean. (See our wonderful children shwacking each other?  Lovely.)

Thread.  Lots and lots of thread.

Pollen.  And the resulting sick, tired, and cranky kids. Sean needs to find a job in Antarctica.

I’m Blue.

I actually am slightly blue.  I wanted a Liberty of London dress from Target but the fabric was horrible.  Come July it would be a hot, sticky, clingy mess.  Hrmph.

After three days of sewing scraps, I managed to use 3lbs 8oz of fabric.

At that rate it will take me over 100 days to piece together all 425+ yards of scraps.

Maeve enjoyed the snow this morning.  Yesterday she was excited at the possibility of a snow day from school but then quickly changed her mind when she realized that would mean yet another Saturday spent at school (we don’t have snow days built in and we’re year round so there is no spring break to use up so we’re left with Saturday school).

A lot of those fabrics are the back.  Two of them are gifts.  Phew.
