I'm not as creative as I would like to be. Let me rephrase that. I can come up with some oh so brilliant and beautiful ideas. My problem lies in actually creating these ideas to look just like I imagine them. That said, I feel confident in my abilities to make the following:
- purses
- decorative pillows
- dog beds
- baby blankets
- some jewelry
- curtains
Other than that, I pretty much suck. I'll try to post some pictures later of past projects. I've made some really cute (and some really fugly) stuff! I bought a pattern the other day and I'm thinking about venturing into children's clothes. I made my first skirt about a month ago, and was quite pleased with how it turned out, especially considering it was my first attempt at a) sewing a piece of clothing that required more than one or two seams and b) my first attempt at using a pattern.
I'm also thinking of venturing into the world of Aprons (thank you Apronpalooza) and pajamas. I don't know, we'll see...
All I know right now is that I've got a ton-o-fabric that needs to be used and a sewing room that is getting smaller by the minute because of said ton-o-fabric. I really should get someone *ahem, Friend* to put some cabinets up in there or something...hmmmm
ok, project for this weekend: start working on items to post and sell.
OH! as for the day from hell cleaning day with mommy dearest my sweet mother, it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be, though it was NOT fun. She came over around 9:30ish that morning (thank you for the extra sleep!) and did not leave until 11:30 that night. AAACK! The sad thing about it? We didn't even touch the bedrooms. That's right, 14 hours of cleaning, going through stuff, getting rid of stuff, and scrubbing, and the bedrooms were not even touched. Scary, I know. So, I've got to do the bedrooms. Soon. They just clash with the rest of the house hehe
OH! and the beauty of having her decide she was coming over and we were going to clean? BIDDY GOT A NEW AIR CONDITIONER!!! You see, mom has been saying they were going to get me a new air conditioner for about...oh 16 months. It took her coming over and feeling the heat of my house for about 3 seconds for her to call my dad and tell him to go get me an air conditioner hehe. and it's not this one...it's one of dese babies! It has A REMOTE! It has A THERMOSTAT! It COOLS MY HOUSE (well, the part of it that the other window units didn't touch)!
