Brother and Singer!

I swear there are only a few things in life that get me truly excited! Crafting and sewing being one of them. For the past year my partner in craft crime, Mari has been uber generous in lending me her awesome Brother machine for all of our crazy and sometimes successful projects. Well, with every season comes change and with much anticipated excitement Mari moved into her new home and even cooler NEW CRAFT STUDIO! So off Brother went to his new home and my craft table looked a little sad to say the least. Well, as all good husbands know, idle crafters are a little psychotic. So without further ado(drum roll please...) I introduce to you The Singer 3317, so cute so sturdy and very very loved! I will miss Brother as Mari and I have spent some wonderful moments huddled over him learning,practicing and laughing but I think Singer and Brother will get along just fine and I can't wait to see what we will think to make next!

Craft fair excitement!!!

Wednesdays always seem to be my go to day . Today I'm finishing up all the plushies and starting on the menagerie of sock monkeys I have to assemble. I have been converted by my friend Mari into a list maker but at this point I think the lists are giving me anxiety like never before. I just looked over my list and I am now having a mild panic attack... 23 monkeys to cut,stuff and hand stitch together,10 plushies needing eyes and accouterments, necklaces and bracelets to be strung and about 200 one inch squares of felt to be glued... nope no pressure here! With only nine more days before the craft fair that I'm hosting, I better get to crafting! On a lighter note I do have eight monkeys ready for adoption! Maybe that is what my lists will be from now on, COMPLETED PROJECTS!!!(Hmm maybe I'll make a pretty notebook just for that!)
