Where it all begins....

I get asked so many times how do I come up with my ideas and how do I make my items. Well, to be honest with you the idea pops into my head or I am making something and an idea just hits me. Sometimes if I am in the middle of doing something I do draw the item on a piece of paper. I draw right on the fabric, yes, right on the fabric. I think when I am close to what it should be I will take it to my sewing machine. I will then add everything to make the piece until it is done. Now sometimes what I have drawn doesn't always end up what I expected it to be. The item might go from being a bear to a bunny. It just depends on what pops into my mind at the time I am making the item.

The first photo shows you my drawing on the material and piece of paper. Now you can see my lines and mistakes...LOL If you look to the right on the photo there is a peanut looking shape then the head which goes off the end and picture.




The second photo is the finished product. Now from the drawing it turned into something else. LOL




So now you know...LOL

The dig out is finally over

Like most of the country this week we all have had some snow. Now the totals due range depending on who you talk to or what weather station you listen to so from what I been told we have had anywhere from 13 to 18 inches. Hey after 12 inches who's counting. The road is somewhat cleared and was able to leave the nest today to get some things done. This photo is in front of my home (we live on a slit hill) but don't let that pile of snow fool you because if you stand next to it, it is over 5 feet tall. I almost feel like I am living back in RI. LOL

The sign below hangs outside my home. Due to the weather this past week I thought it was appropriate to leave it on frightful. Now just because the sun was shinning today does not mean that is was delightful outside like the other side reads. It still was cold with a high of 12 degrees so I felt it was just to leave it on frightful side today.

From the sound of things it may stay on the frightful side for a few more days. Snow is in the forecast for Sat, Sun and Monday. It will be real interesting especially when they are not accustom to getting this kind of snow here in Iowa. On the other hand not being able to get out the sewing machine has been working over time and the bunnies are multiplying.LOL

New patterns and handmade items coming in the next few days so don't forget to stop back!

Stay warm my prim friends! Blessings Vicky
