I am busy getting some Christmas outfits made for the kids.  First up is Isaac's.  Well, I still have his button-front shirt to make....but I am considering it almost done.The cardigan is the Greenpoint Cardigan pattern from Hey June, which I am in love with on him.  I think this is my third or fourth Greenpoint Cardi and I am not stopping anytime soon.  I have now made them for all the kids (I will show you a chevron one soon).And Isaac's pants are part of Andrea's A Go To Christmas and were ...

I got new glasses. Bet you didn't even know that I needed some.But, I did. I hadn't gotten a new pair of glasses for I'm guessing about 3 years now.  I wear contacts and because they are so expensive I just purchase those and don't buy glasses as well.  I just keeping using my old pair and only wear them at night when I'm in bed reading (or am up eating chips and watching Project Runway). However, my old glasses suffered a tragic accident in the spring when Grace was trying them on Ruth and they ...

So another season of Project Runway just ended.And I was a little surprised at the winner... Dmitry(source) Hummm...who knew?Not me. Don't get me wrong.  I really enjoy Dmitry (especially when Elena was driving him CRAZY) and I admire the heck out of his tailoring skills but I just didn't peg him for the winner of the season.(Although he should have gotten a prize for putting up with all of Elena's super drama.) I've mentioned before I was a solid Sonjia fan (Remember I even made a scarf to look ...

 This was an unintended project.  Yesterday after preschool I was wiped out and so were the kids.  Simon was still at school and Grace and Ruth both fell asleep which means I suddenly found myself with some time alone.  And what did I do with that time to myself?  Catch up on laundry?  Clean out my closet?  Take a nap? No way. I made Grace the lace back t-shirt that I have been wanting to make her for weeks. (I love quiet sewing time.) Here's what I did: #1.  I gathered my supplies.  You ... View the Post

So late Thursday night I was watching Project Runway (I always watch it during it's second broadcast at 11:00pm when everyone is asleep and I can enjoy it...while eating nachos...and stretched out on the couch.  Crazy?  Maybe, but I've never claimed not to be.) Anyways, so I'm sitting there watching it and Sonjia (who I love) is wearing this totally awesome grey, knit scarf.  Unfortunately, I couldn't find a picture of Sonjia wearing the scarf but you can see it in this clip from the last ...
