I have always said I wanted to learn to sew...For some reason I just never followed through on that aspiration. I really want to learn to sew and quilt and crochet.
I kind of pushed that desire to the side while I was painting glass, and making jewelry, adopting animals, going to craft fairs and adopting different boyfriends. I guess I always thought that I am too much of a klutz to sew.
I was discussing it with my best friend yesterday and we decided we are going to take classes at our local fabric store. The classes are relatively cheap and I figure easy to work into our schedules. I am going to sign up for sewing basic and then sewing 2, quilting and quilting 2, and crocheting.
our goal is to make some of the linens for her cousins upcoming wedding this summer. Julie and I are both really crafty, so this will just be one more thing to add to the list of stuff we know how to do. Also it will be one more easy way to be able to give friends and family home made gifts instead of store bought presents.
If i have the patience.
I have a bad habit of starting things and never finishing, or I get bored of a hobby quickly and never see how far it will take me.
This is something I am looking forward to and I hope I can develop it into a skill that I can use through out my life.
Also,
14 days until Vegas. We can't wait to get out there! I really need to get my camera fixed before we go, but I just cannot wait to be in my bathing suit at the pool with a beverage in my hand!
I love the beginning of summer!
And I fed Ruby myself for the first time today. Except that the crickets scared the S*&T out of me and I ended up dumping around 10 in her cage. Little Ruby thought she was the luckiest chameleon in the whole world. Her spots turned orange and brown and she started hunting. I watched her for so long I was almost late for work!
Goals this week-
Camera situation straightened out
Art Museum Sunday
Buy Jimmy Dinner tonight
Go Grocery shopping for Cinco Di Mayo Party next week
Sam's Bachelorette party Saturday night (where Jimmy meets my other family!)
