100!!!
Haha I woke up this morning and saw that I had 100 followers! Wahoo! Through out this week I was thinking if I get a 100 followers I am going to do a giveaway to thank all you awesome followers! So it will be coming soon, so look for it! Also, i told Brandon if we get a 100 followers we were going to go on a '100' date go buy ice cream with 100 pennies, take a 100 pictures or go out to eat and we can only chew 100 times. haha... we'll see..
Now onto our awesome guest post, and here she is!
So, a little bit about me....I am a wife and mommy to two sweet little boys and one very outspoken little girl...all 4 years and under. I plan on homeschooling, but since they aren't of school age yet, I spend a lot of time sewing and crafting, and they spend a lot of time, ehem, "helping". Which basically means they pulled the thread out of my sewing maching when I wasn't looking or like the time I left my scissors out by accident and Sophie cut up part of a dress I was working on...seriously, I was out of the room for two minutes! How do they get into these things so quickly?!?
This is my oldest. He's a sweetie pie.
My one and only girl...
and my little model
My sweet baby...he's a handful! He climbs everything! It's quite often I find him balancing on window sills....no, seriously...
My blog is mostly about my sewing and crafting projects with some of my attempts at photography and modeling (lol) thrown in. I started a linky party called Sew Crafty Saturday where you can link up whatever crafts, sewing, cooking, decorating, etc you have been working on each week. I love being inspired to push myself outside of my comfort zone by all of the amazingly talented women out in blogland. I am also starting to posting free sewing patterns because eventually when my kids are older I would like to make and sell my own patterns and I figure it would be good practice and a nice way to get input on my designs...or who knows maybe by then I'll live at the beach and I'll just keep doing it for free because I am too busy hanging out on the beach to run a business... : ) that would be pretty nice...
Here are some of my readers favorites....
These were for a friend's dog...we don't have one :(
These are some of the patterns I am currently working on that will be made available for free download on my blog:
This is my latest design, and I will be giving one away on Sunday as part of the Spring Fling ~ 14 Days of Fabulous Giveaways going on now through April 2. You can check out my blog each day for a link to two new giveaways, and you can check out this post to get a sneak peak of all the 29 giveaways.
I also do a lot of sewing for my local fabric shop, so I try to write reviews of the patterns and include tips on areas where I had trouble.
Like with this Princess Bella Dress...
And I just have to share one more pic with you before I go. Last December I had the honor of making my nanny's wedding dress (btw~when I say Nanny I mean godmother! I am not a SAHM with a nanny as one lady thought....but a girl can dream...lol). The satin was a little difficult to work with especially considering it was my first time, but I really enjoyed making it, and I think it turned out beautiful....
