Hey, folks! Happy New Year and all that good stuff!
Yeah…who knew I would disappear for a year? I sure didn’t, but I’m gonna jump back into the blogging game and act like I just posted last week. I missed you all for the record….
Well, 2009 has started off ok crafting wise. I feel like I am on track with some of my creative goals. Before the conclusion of 2008, one of my goals was to learn how to sew and around mid-November a friend of mine told me her mother would be happy to get me started. She didn’t have to tell me twice….
Meet “Dith”. My fabric/yarn/scrapbooker partner-in-crime.
"Dith" and her mother (Thanks, BJ!!) have been very instrumental in getting me familiar with my sewing machine and understanding patterns. It has been a little intimidating, but I am sticking with it.
As I embark on this journey of sewing, please keep me in your thoughts. Although I am so eager to learn this skill, I am SO NERVOUS! Any tips for this novice seamtress? Drop me some lines of wisdom PUH-LEASE!!
As always, stay tuned! I have a quilting class this week and I hope you stop by next week to see what happened. Cross your fingers!
Peace,
kellz
WORDS OF THE WEEK
"People with no imagination feed it with sex - the clown of love. They don't know the real kinds, the better kinds, where losses are cut and everybody benefits. It takes a certain intelligence to love like that -softly, without props. But the world is such a showpiece..." - From "Love" by Toni Morrison

SONG OF THE WEEK
"Love Endeavor" by Alice Smith. This is the last track on Alice Smith's debut CD titled, "For Lovers, Dreamers, and Me". I have been blastin' this song all weekend on repeat. It has a "Stevie Wonder" feel to it. A feeling of hope...love...and good times. Check it out!

Hey, Kellz! Glad you stopped by to let me know you're back. :)
I LOVE the fabric you picked for your top.
Best sewing advice I can share is to sign up for Ravelry (if you haven't already) and join our Sew Obsessed group. People answer questions and post projects and it's very, very helpful.
Happy sewing! The look on you friend's face is priceless, lol.
