I have decided to start doing some projects in the hundreds of magazines that reside on my bookshelves. What a grand idea, instead of sitting in there taking up space I am actually going to do the projects inside. It is funny because as I go through them, especially the Australian Homespun and Country Threads, I see all these projects that I have seen on the internet and I have said “Oh I want to do that!” Well I can, I have the patterns. The first one I completed today is from the Australian Country Threads Vol 9 num 10
I made the Embroidery Floss Tote by Carmel Scriha. It is cute, I love bags and a bag with embroidery on it is perfect for me.
I also finished up block 8 from the Bunny Hill Designs free block of the month. I have 9 blocks done now and still have 3 left to go. Actually I am not super happy with how this turned out but it will be okay.
My husband and I are watching some crazy John Travolta movie on VH1 and they just had a commercial for a work out video called Flirty Girl Fitness, you can even get a pole with it. My husband asked if I wanted that – yeah right! Keep dreaming!
