Back from Vacation means back to work!

I just got back from a wonderful family vacation.  I mean WONDERFUL!  My family as well as my Mom & Dad, brother, sister & her family all met up in the mountains for some great quality time.  We went to a water park, to a Jamboree, Tubing, some went golfing, a little site seeing and mainly just hung out with the family!!

But now it is back to reality!! School has tracked back in and all the outside activities are ramping up again.  As the old saying goes…ask the busiest person you know to get something done and they will!! Well apparently everyone knows I am busy AND I do not know how to say no to anything!  However, by the grace of God I am getting everything done…I think. This includes all the requests for Doll Patterns, MOPS, Girl Scout stuff and the normal being a mom duties Smile

I am really working on some fun projects that I am  really excited about.  The crazy thing is most of the people I “work for” contact me through this blog and have some of the most fantastic projects they need completed. 

First a ring pillow!  Someone saw some of my pillows and asked me to make a ring pillow for her upcoming wedding.  The groom is a huge Michigan Wolverine fan so she is going to surprise him.  We worked together on email and this is what we have come up with…

We did decide to nix the astro turf but keeping the same design.  Won’t that be fun!!!

Then I am also helping design a local women’s baby bedding.  The only criteria was Pink and Navy.  I just sent her a sample of material today along with design ideas.

I really enjoy making baby bedding so this is going to be fun!!!

Last but not least, I am working on a free tutorial for an 18” Doll Apron.  My hope is to have it to you all at the end of this week!!!

Yes, I am busy, but I am happiest when I am busy!!

Hope you are all doing well!!
