NAME IT!

Here's the latest. But, not sure what it is...just a square head with 3 feet! Cute! I think this one will go to John. I love making these things but just don't need extra stuff laying around.
Work at JoAnn Fabrics & Crafts is going great. Getting plenty of hours and now I'm testing various shoes & insoles in all different combos. Hopefully I'll be able to settle on something soon as I work on Friday.

GUESS WHO'S EMPLOYES??

I got the phone call Friday around 6 PM. Yep! I've passed my first hurdle. I got the job. Granted it's not a glamorous job but I wanted it so badly. I'll be a cashier at Jo-Ann's. I'm supposed to get another call today to let me know what I'll be paid and to give me info about orientation. The interviewer asked me one very important question...if I'll just be giving my pay check back to the store on pay day...I did say, "NO" because I have tons of supplies already. I hope I can keep my promise to myself.

On another note, just wanted to show off my 2 latest knitting projects. I decided to do a baby blanket, or two, after completing a knitting class at Sophies' here in town. I'm so thrilled at how far I've come from not knowing anything over the summer.

This is my first attempt. Love the color but it just wasn't girly enough

Then I did this one which I made for my brand new niece up in Wisconsin.

More later about my new felting project and the CKC here in Louisville this coming weekend.

ETSY UPDATES

I've been a busy little girl lately so I haven't posted much. Oops.


But, once again, I've added to my Etsy shop...

Traveling Along Embellishment Kit

Owl Journaling Spots with some little owls

Traveling Journaling Spots

Art Journal filled with heavyweight Watercolor Paper

And finally, I found these cute miniature cookie cutters so I added one to the "What's Cookin'?" Kit along with some older paper recipe cards.

I've also decided to begin a 6-8 week knitting class. I've finished up 3 sets of those slipper booties and am now attempting an "easy" sweater. That combined with babysitting 2 days a week, various doctor/dentist appointments & tests ( bone density this week) and I've not much time left for scrapping. I did, however, finish a little mini for Tracy & Kimber's store..."The Little Store that Could".

Now, I finally get to start on scrapping/journaling our trip to the Pacific North West. (Plus I'm trying to downsize the clutter...good luck with that!)

Thanks for stopping by...and please stop by my Etsy shop!

NEW STUFF

I think my knitting is coming along just fine. Actually, I'm pretty proud of myself. I found an easy beginners pattern for these booties. I had never knitted with really bulky yarn...it was tricky but I learned a lot. They are Sooooooooooooooooo soft!! Now I'm making another pair for my little 4 year old friend. I even let her pick out the yarn.


The next 3 layouts were made with papers that I bought from Tracy's new store, Scrap~N~Crap. They are all My Mind's Eye and Fancy Pants papers. The first 2 are from Halloweens past and the 3rd is of my sister and me from one of our cruises.

PROGRESSING RIGHT ALONG...

The store is painted, all of the cabinets constructed and now to get the aisles set up with all of the slat wall for hanging products! Opening in less than 2 weeks! Check out the website: Scrap~N~Crap.

This is Kimber's office

Here are the tables & chairs for the community crop room

Oh, and Tracy creating a window display

Don't know if you can see some of the paper racks on top of the cabinets and the slat wall behind them. That's what Tracy did her display on.

Daniel hard at work constructing, yet another cabinet

And, the most important part...testing out the toys for the Children's Area!!

On to other news...the knitting is coming along too. Here is another test piece where I tried out different patterns.
