What day is it?

What day is it again? I've been so busy trying to get my house sold I've been neglecting my blog. I'm afraid my posts will be inconsistant for the next little while.

It's a good thing I wrote my Tuesday time savings tips for BusyMoms early and someone else posted it.

Whatcha working on Wednesday


Today I worked on a special product. Someone suggested I cover fleece with cotton. I made my first prototype and here it is. It needs to be refined, and field tested, but I'm happy so far.

So what have you been working on?

Tuesday Time Saving Tips

I've joined a fledgling team at Etsy. It's called Busy Moms Team. It's just as the name suggests, a place for busy moms to come together. To join send a request to Anniepoo http://www.etsy.com/convo_new.php?to_username=anniepoo

Busy Moms Team has a blog and I've volunteered to write the Tuesday article on Time Saving Tips. I'm always looking for ideas so if you have some please send them to me!

Here's a link to my very first article. I hope you like it.

Oops

So today is suppose to be fabulous finds friday but I didn't think ahead. I always ask permission before I feature an artist and I don't have one ready right now. Silly me. I blame the house. We still haven't sold it. It seems it's "always the bridesmaid never the bride". I hope to get back to my fabulous finds friday next week. Stay tuned.

Whatcha working on Wednesday

So what did you work on this past week? I worked on nothing. Between house showings and Easter I didn't have any free time for crafting. A sad, sad week indeed.


Last week Amy from WireDreamsDesign http://www.etsy.com/shop.php?user_id=5902534 comment she was working on a wholesale inquiry. How's that go? Below is one of the clay scarf pins.

Fabulous Finds Friday - PoshDots







This week I'm featuring PoshDots. http://www.etsy.com/shop.php?user_id=5507799
I can't remember the first time I saw PoshDots work. Probably on the Etsy front page. I do remember that I've loved her letters from the very beginning. It would be darling in so many places. I'm thinking of getting a giant one for above our fireplace in our new home.
Reading PoshDots profile I learned her youngest has an extra chromosome which, relates to my "real" job where I diagnose chromosomal abnormalities. I am going to leave you with a quote from PoshDots profile.
I recently read this great quote used by a former student..."An idea can
turn to dust or magic, depending on the talent that rubs against it." How
true!

Whatcha Working on Wednesday?



It's been a few weeks since I've done a whatcha working on Wednesday. I know you have been working away on at least one project. Please share it in my comments.


I promised to post finished pictures of my Christmas wedding gifts. I finished and gave these weeks ago, but here are the pictures today. The tree skirt is reversable, the picture shows both sides. I didn't have a Christmas tree, in mid March, to show it off properly. Even though I hate pictures of myself I'm also going to include one of DH and myself at the wedding. We had a blast.

A quick update

I want to be blogging more but between showings, life and sewing I haven't gotten around to it. More soon I promise.
