Another tee


I made this tee for my cousin's son for his 6th birthday.  He loves Nightmare Before Christmas, and well it is nearly impossible to find stuff from that  movie for a 6 year old.  I think it turned out pretty good.  

I am starting to work on a new project that I will do bit by bit, though this one needs done faster.  It is a hexagon quilt.  I am still just planing it right now, and it will require just over 1300 hexagons.  So I will start working on it in about another month or so.  I have continued to work on the yoyos....it will probably take another year of waiting for the bus to actually get them all done.  For now I have 4 quilt tops that just need quilted and another that just needs the embroidery (Billy Joel) before quilting.  Plus all of the other stuff I want to accomplish and all of the other things that I must do.  

For now tonight I am looking at embroidering Stupefied, Velvet and Stupendous....possibly Verse.  Have a great night!

More then a few


This is a tee shirt that I made for my niece who will be starting kindergarten in the fall.  It was for her birthday which was mid March.

I have continued Yoyos every day as I sit for the bus both in the morning and afternoon.  I have not counted them since the semester...I still have 4 1/2 more weeks before school is over for the summer.  I'll let you know.

Over the summer we will be doing color theory in this house as none of my boys could tell me what colors to mix with paint to get brown!  This is basic elementary color theory and paint lessons!

So get ready for a summer of crazy posts about insanity in my home while I do projects and go on day trips with my children!!  Before that starts though I have 2 rooms to finish painting so that I can get the toys out of the basement and front room!  Much to do!  Much to do!!
