Project: FAIL
For every Beyonce dress there are 6 failed projects angrily stuffed in a plastic bin. For those of you who know only of success, move on! This post does not concern you, and frankly- I kind of hate you right now. For the rest of us, the story unfolds like this: 10h23 Miraculously, something you [...]
FSendoff: Grateful?
Ok, don’t freak out of anything, but I’m experiencing what I think most people call gratitude. Between lusting after these boots and being asked if I was pregnant (trust me, everyone will know if that happens), I felt this need to recognize the things I do have. I know, it’s foreign for me too. Don’t [...]
The “Quick” Quilt
Chronicles from our Sunday Sewist: Jenn Before the summer I had been slowly working on a quilt for my bed. A queen sized quilt. The magazine where I got the pattern promised it would be quick and easy. Umm no. Sure, it’s a simple graphic block with no complicated piecing involved. Easy enough. The only [...]
Weekend Recap: If Only
We had a gorgeous weekend. We washed cars, dug out gardens and built a shelter for the tractor. We ate great meals, solved the Saturday puzzle and carbo loaded. Watched a Woody film and went to the Fair. Eeked out before the crowds, came home to face the week. To face meal plans, schedules, work [...]

Sunday Chronicles: Go For The Gold
Chronicles from our Sunday Sewist: Jen Yes, I’ve got Olympic fever. It’s amazing watching the athletes pushing themselves to the limits. The stories are so compelling. I’m no athlete but I have been pushing myself. I’ve been training for a 10km race so most of my free time is spent running, running running. I’m getting [...]
Weekend Recap
This weekend was a strange mix- like that party mix you buy at the dep, except not the delicious one, the one with too many pretzels. And we can argue until we’re blue in the face- but let’s be honest here… pretzels are terrible. I can’t pinpoint the reasons that I felt lackluster about the [...]
Hexed!
Chronicles from our Sunday Sewist Jenn I’ve been doing quite a bit of sewing lately but none of it quilting. I’ll get back to it but for the moment I’m enjoying making some tops and summer hats (one for me in the works!). Now I’m back into a project I started a while back. Hexagon [...]
