Red stretchy footies

I finished these footies on Monday night. Love the yarn--Cascade Fixation--a nice stretchy yarn. This was a fun, fast knit!

Sketchapalooza 2

I can't believe that the Feeling Scrappy Sketchapalooza 2 Sketch class has finished already.  Designers, Jayne Jones, Stacey Lokovic and Amy Bell offered 20 wonderful sketches. As the Guest Designer I was asked to  make examples to show class participants. I was able to complete 16 of the 20 sketches.  It has been a long time since I've completed so many pages in one month. :) I can't wait for Sketchapalooza 3 (coming in March 2009). Be sure to check out all the upcoming Feeling Scrappy classes!

Get'er Done

This weekend I was in the mood to get my scrapbooking back up to date.  I had a bunch of photos from our spring break vacation that I was dreading. Not because it wasn't a great time, but because I had so many photos. So I buckled down and got to work. They aren't the fanciest pages, but I'm happy that they are done. :)

Mommy Brag! :D

Last night was the high school cross country awards banquet....always a lot of fun to see the kids who have worked so hard over the course of the season get recognized for their achievements. Kelsey earned her first varsity letter and Grant got his fourth for Cross Country! :D Not only that, they both came away with special awards too. Kelsey was chosen by her peers as 'Freshman Girl of the Year'! And Grant received the special honor of the 'Coaches Award' for his hard work, support of his teammates, and determination (not giving up when he broke his arm). We are so proud of both of them. 

Teaching Day

It is teaching day over at Feeling Scrappy.  Jayne asked me to teach a lesson on how to make embossed journaling strips. I hope you check it out. :D

Ziggy Socks!

Can you believe these socks were made from ONE skein of yarn? This was such a fun knit. I just had to keep going to see what color was going to appear next. 

The details: Ziggy pattern is available for FREE!  I used one skein of Noro Sock yarn (yum) on size 3 double pointed needles. 

Tagged :)

Since I just started this blog, I'm not sure how many people actually read here so I will give this a try and see how it goes:

The rules:

1. Link to the person who tagged you. (Jayne and Char)

2. Post the rules on your blog (this is what you are now reading).

3. List 6 random things about yourself.

4. Tag 6 people at the end of your post.

5. Let each person know they have been tagged and leave a comment on their blog.

6. Let the tagger know when your entry is up.

Here are six random things about me:

1. I have been a stay-at-home-mom for 21 years.

2. I've never had a cup of coffee.....and I have lived in the Seattle area most of my life. LOL

3. I spend too much time on the computer each day. :)

4. We won't be doing anything for Halloween this year. I do miss having little kids sometimes.

5. The pair of socks I am knitting are almost finished

6. I'm looking forward to the extra hour sleep this weekend with the time change! 

Now I will tag:   Stacey, Denise, Adonica, Suzanne, Rachel and Amy
