the girl who is warming up


for my foray into the MMM contest. Got to get that scrap mojo working ya know. Anyway, I did about four lo's and posted them at 2Peas, but not much response...makes me start to doubt myself, ya know? I know it's not about the praise...it's about the memories. But I really like the praise! It's my gold star, ya know?

Anyway, my fave of the four, simply because of the picture. My little guy was soooo disappointed he couldn't play outside. Am I a mean mommy for not letting him play in the rain? I'll wait for a mid-afternoon shower for that. It came out a little differently than I initially envisioned, but I love it.
I have also come to the conclusion that I need a sewing machine for this entry. Every lo in magazines seems to have sewing on the pages and I don't want to be left out! Besides, I like the look. If anyone knows of where I can get a decent one cheap, lmk. I bought a janome last year and it never worked for me. Soooo, disappointed!
Going to have a come-to-Jesus talk with hubby tonight about certain things. It may not be pretty. Grant me patience and tact and the courage to issue an ultimatum. It needs to be done.
