That Thing I'm Not Doing...

Okay... you know that thing that I am NOT making things for because I'm NOT having a table at it because I'm NOT doing it. Yeah, that thing. It's this weekend. I'm still NOT doing it, but if you come to it, you might just see me there and I might just be standing behind a table that could or could not have things I've made on it. Just sayin'.

Actually, it is going to to pretty AWE-SOME! (not because I'm not doing it either.) Karen got pallets and pallets full of the most beautiful Westminster fabric and it is all going to be $5 a yard. Yes! that is not a typo! 5 Bucks! Like I said.... pretty awesome. We are talking Amy Butler, Heather Bailey, Joel Dewberry, tons of Kaffe. You know... some primo stuff. There are also flannels and quilted fabrics. I have seen it! This is no rumor. I can confirm! She also will have some very cool quilted bags, thread, accessories. All kinds of good stuff. Oh.... and some insane deals on charm packs, fat quarter bundles, & design rolls.

If you are a quilter, fabric hoarder, whatever... you should be there! As Rachel Zoe would say, it is going to be BA-NAN-A-S. If you are a VIP, you can even partake of the special preview Friday night. (I have some pretty good connections... I can get you in.)

Metal + Linen

I'm really starting to get into making these metal clutch purses. Can you tell...

Pumpkins + Camo

I think I forgot to post an 8 month picture, but here is a picture of my big 9 month old. Saturday was a beautiful day and we headed to the pumpkin patch to get a big ol' carvin' pumpkin. Fletch wants a pirate pumpkin, so we will have to see if we can make that happen.
Not only is this pumpkin season, it is also deer huntin' season. My husband has been waiting for the day he could take Fletch hunting with him since the day Fletch was born. This is the year. Fletcher got all decked out in his camo for his first hunting experience with his daddy. I figured it would last about 10 minutes, but to my surprise, Fletch spent almost 4 hours in the "deer condo". Go figure!

Wine Bottle Bag Tutorial

Okay- here it is... the Wine Bottle Bag Tutorial. I did it pretty quickly, so I hope there are no mistakes in it. Blogger is being kinda funny tonight, so you can find the tutorial over on my sidebar. Enjoy. -g
