new, new, new!

This is such a good week! This morning as I was enjoying my cup of tea and oatmeal, I read an email that my order from Sublime Stitching shipped. I ordered these patterns:

I bought a shirt I'm planning to do an embroidery of the octopus on. It would be spectacular if they magically appeared at my door step tomorrow morning so I could work on it during my sewing date I'm having! 

PS. As I was working of finishing up my cactus pillow the other day, Bryan did an embroidery of Robocop. It is fantastically funny.

I feel like I've been busy the past week, but I'm not even sure what I've been doing. I know I've been spending quite a bit of time drooling over the fabric on the website "Sew Mama Sew!" The prints are great.

Yesterday was my birthday, and I got this bad boy:

It's simple, and just what I needed to save some space. I think my next step is to get a peg board to hang some supplies on. It is just a matter of where it will go in our apartment. I was getting some organization ideas from This Blessed Nest, and I found this adorable pin cushion idea:

It is so much better than my little wrist-lit! 

Have a good weekend all, I'll leave you with this little guy that I'm still working on :)

Netflix and Cacti.

I've been sewing like crazy! I'm getting so excited about building up my inventory, I can't wait until I have enough items that I feel comfortable putting on my "Too Crewel" Etsy. It will be wonderful when the wind subsides, and our forecast isn't filled with rain, so I can sit outside while workin' my fingers to the bone. :)

I've spent the morning and afternoon working on a cactus pillow Bryan and I designed together. It's going to be so cute, and hard to part with. That's all for now, back to some more cacti and netflix!

Sewing, Sewing, Gone.

Yesterday I sold my sewing machine, and I'll be sad to see it go. With that being said though, I am so excited to go shopping for a new one! So of course the excitement has made my mind wander to my dream sewing room. I found a few rooms and products that made my mouth water, but for now I guess I'll have to stick to my tackle boxes and crates.
