I am new to wordpress & am loving so much about it … like how I could search for certain types of posts. I loved yours. And, I actually made little catnip toys last weekend. My parents’ cat plays with his toys constantly. My sister’s elderly cat just lays on top of his. Great post, great idea, & very cool that you volunteer your time with Big Brothers/Big Sisters.

I’ve always been a little sad that you never got to know Grandma Lee. Our family tradition is having the girls spend time in the summer at gramma’s house, and she taught me so much. I shouldn’t be surprised that you’ve found a way to carry on the tradition whilst simultaneously turning it on it’s head.

Comment on One Night, One Fabric, Two Projects by Lisa Hightower

They both look good! I’ve always eyed that bag in the one-yard-wonder book, I might need to find some stash fabric for it since my car trash ends up on the back floor board until I clean it up at the end of the week.

And I totally feel you on the needing to finish what you start. I’d always felt that way about sewing because I was such a pain and hassle to set up and take down my sewing area when I made a project that I felt like I couldn’t quit until I was done, and would rush to finish.

Now that I have room to keep my machines out, I don’t feel like I have to hurry up and finish, and so take a lot more time than I used to to finish things. Which is why I put away a half-finished summer dress last fall, knowing that when I felt like working on it again, it’d be easy enough to pick back up where I left off.

I hope I get to be much more crafty this year, too! I may send something for your sister’s baby, too! Because who doesn’t love making baby stuff?

Comment on 12 hours to Make a Mermaid Costume for Halloween by Lisa Hightower

She looks good! It looks great for your first time using slippery fabrics. She’s going to remember this costume for a long time, and that you made it for her.

I think she looks great!

One of the ordeals of becoming a true tailor is figuring out when the pattern/instructions are wrong and fixing it yourself. I may have to make you a badge.

And do I read this correctly, she’s never gone trick-or-treating before? Poor thing.
