What's happenin'

Well, it's been a while since I've posted anything. I tend to forget that I have a blog page. So what's new? Well, I'm working on my third afghan. It's in the blue family for my brother and sister-in-law for Christmas. I wanted to make it a ripple pattern but for some reason I just can't get the pattern right, it is always off and I can't get the ripples right. Oh well, I'll stick to the pattern that I know works, 'sc ch1 sc' and so on.

I've met someone on match.com. We've had one date and are going to get together this sunday. He'll get to see my apartment. I'm not sure what he'll think, I tend to embrace my inner child and have stuffed animals all around as well as kenetic toys. There are canvases everywhere, and piles of fabric for sewing. The walls are covered with my artwork, there's no space left to hang anything else. Hopefully he'll embrace my eccentricities. I'll get to see his house too. That should be interesting. He's got a huge garden that I want to see as well.

I'm still working on a children's book for a friend, I'm doing the artwork. I'm to the point that I'm actually drawing and coloring. I'm using colored pencils to give me a larger color pallet.

I'm sewing, trying to finish summer dresses and short tops to wear with jeans. I've got 5 dresses to make. So I need to get going before summer is over. I can make one in two days so if I work diligently I can be finished in 10 days, theoretically.

Well that's all for today. Later!
