More Laptop Covers – EEE PC

This is the laptop sleeve that I made. This is the teeny, adorable EEE PC that sits in the laptop sleeve that I made. This is the poet/mom/blogger (Jan!) that writes on the EEE PC that sits in the laptop sleeve that I made. This is the company that will be publishing a book of […]

New things, a new year.

I’m 32 now. I think it’ll be a good year, if this first week is any indication. So far in this new year, I’ve treated myself to some new fabric, which I’ll be receiving shortly and will photograph when it comes.  Happy birthday to me!  I’ve also discovered and now adore Greek yogurt. There are […]

Coasting along

I’ve been on a coaster-making kick lately.   They say that necessity is the mother of all inventions, so it turns out that my Dunkin Donuts addiction has really paid off.

I hate waiting…

I bought fabric, and it’s not here yet.  Mind you, I only placed my order last night, but I have three days of vacation this week, a long weekend coming up, and the urge to sew BIG, and I can’t.  Well, actually, I can.  It’s not like I don’t have a stash to play with, […]

The Bee Bag

A friend recently got a very adorable EEE PC and asked me to make her a bag to tote it around town in.  It’s a version of a bag that she asked me for ages ago, with specific requirements for many, many, many, many (did I say many?) pockets, a nice long strap, and ample […]

Staycation

I’ve recently returned home from a lovely, refreshing, fun trip to New Orleans to watch a dear friend Kim get married.  I was so honored to serve as a bridesmaid (albeit a weeeeepy, teary one!), and loved sharing in the rituals of the weekend.  Did I mention that I cried?  Yeah, it was beautiful. Since […]

Small sunny joys

It’s been all doom, gloom and a big rainy mess in these parts for what feels like almost all of June.  I caught a small bit of sun in pictures during this stormy, rainy period we’ve been having (and apparently will endure for several more days.  Ick). I’m trying to see if I can turn […]
