It is 10:50 a.m. and I have made my bed, washed up and gotten dressed, the girls are all up and about their business and I ran the dishwasher which I forgot to turn on last night. I had a nice breakfast of 2 English muffins with butter and honey and a dish of fresh strawberries and my vitamins. The kitchen is all cleaned up, the rest of the groceries are put away, hand washed a few dishes and cleaned the sink and dishpan. I got the mail and I am ready to CRAFT!!!!!
Okay, it is now 12:37 and I have ironed a lot of fat quarters and scraps of fabric and have begun cutting pieces.......I need a break...the ironing and the bending over the cutting mat is taking a toll! LOL!
Now it is 4:20 p.m. and I have cut out almost all of the pieces and I have sewn some together...little tiny pieces.......so cute....this is fun but very time consuming and a back killer! I'm glad the sewing is starting.....that shouldn't be as painful! LOL! It is so gratifying though to create! The 'cat girls' go to bed at 3:00 p.m. (basement) so I don't need to be so fearful of the iron cord and Miss Peeps climbing all over everything when I am measuring and/or cutting. I had a little snack after they went to bed and now I am piecing things together............
Well, I think that's about all the sewing I'll be doing for today. Now it's time for jammies
some supper and to bed with some handwork and t.v. watching. I did get outside for a bit today because it was just too beautiful........here's a view...........not sure what this white blooming tree is does anyone know? It's in my back 40...........
The red buds and dogwoods are starting to bloom................
I hope you had a beautiful Spring day where you are!
Happy Trails!

Looks springy there!! You need a higher cutting table one you can sit at! Maybe that would help with the back strain :(
ReplyDeleteYou are so right! I'm going to look into that!
DeleteLooks like a productive day for you. I see you also use O'Keefes working hand cream. Love that stuff.
ReplyDeleteYes, and it lasts and it's not greasy for us who do handwork! LOL!
DeleteWow, quite a day for you! Spring seems to have arrived for you...no real signs yet but the sun did come out today....yay!
ReplyDeleteIt is nice down here in the Spring but then it gets REALLY HOT! Spring will come your way soon!
DeleteHi Sam :)) Those photos are so gorgeous though I have no clue what that tree is, it reminds me of the apple and cherry blossom trees my parents had in their backyard that made me sneeze oh so much! I have a few more buds on my basil, but nothing close to spring yet! :) I'm so glad you had a wonderful craft day, I'm craving English muffins now!
ReplyDeleteI didn't make these but they;re still darn good! I use them for egg sandwiches too for breakfast. I hope it's a fruit tree! That would be wonderful!
DeleteWhat a fun, productive day you had.
ReplyDeleteYes and then I tossed and turned all night as I couldn't turn off all that creative energy!
DeleteLooks like a very fun day. I need to walk out and check on the fruit trees. I would love to see spring buds on them.
