Busy Time of Year

I have been so busy lately, that blogging seems to be the last thing on my mind. I feel like I am running in a million directions with a to-do list that never ends. This year has just flown by! How can it almost be Christmas? With Christmas just around the corner that means by baby will be 1 before I know it. Speaking of, I guess I better get on the ball and get things ready for his birthday party.

I have found a little time lately to be creative (and I do mean a little time). I posted a few pictures of the fabrics that I purchased, but I never said what I intended to make with those fabrics. Well, thanks to my dear sweet husband you can check it out yourself. Check out the logo Chris designed for me, while you are at it. www.kozykiddos.com I have since made several trips to the fabric store and stocked up on TONS of fabric. I have fleece, flannel, cottons, chenilles....... the list goes on. Now to find some time to work on all these projects. Oh, did I mention that I have Truitt's Christmas stocking all cut out and his name embroderied on it? I just need to find time to sew it together. I still haven't picked up my sewing machine from the shop, but that is on the list of things to do tomorrow :) Thankfully, my wonderful mother-in-law has been letting me borrow hers.

After we pick Keegan up from School today we are heading out to the ocean (in the rain and cold) to go clam digging with Chris' grandparents. Keegan is very excited about this. I will post pictures when we return.

Fabric!

After I dropped Keegan off at school this morning Truitt and I headed to the fabric store. I spent way to much time and money there. I am excited about the stuff I picked up. I was also able to drop my sewing machine off at the repair shop. I can't believe it is going to cost $120 to fix and clean it. There will be an additional charge if parts are required. So, if all goes as planned I should be able to pick it up after Thanksgiving. I may need to borrow a machine until then because I'm not sure I can wait that long. This fabric is sitting here calling my name. Here are a few of the fabrics I picked up. Let me know what you think.

Creative Juices are Flowing!

I am ready to be creative. Well, at least as creative as I get. I have all these great ideas jumping around in my head. I have an urge to head to the fabric store and break out the sewing machine. If only my sewing machine were working. I guess I need to take it into the shop. Hopefully I will be able to post some pics of fabric and finished projects very soon. If I don't post anything in the next week or so ask me.
