It brought back great memories of my grandma, though. Here's the cute little kitty I made. Can't wait to start on my next one... a birthday gift for my daughter Ashley. This is what I do in the evenings, while watching tv, after my poor back has had enough sewing for the day.<br />

Therefore, I dedicate my newest creation to her memory. I just wasn't feeling very creative lately, and decided to just sit down and do some of the creative types of things that I used to do with her. That means BY HAND. Grandma never used a sewing machine, didn't even own one, but she made some of the most beautiful creations, and I'd really like to do more of this...so...my posts will be a lot farther apart, most likely, LOL! This buttery shade of yellow heavy cotton twill fabric was given to me by my good friend, Tonya, of Tonya's Sewing room. Thanks again, Tonya!!<br />

After reading online that lavender could be used as a natural flea deterrent, I decided to roll them into a cloth bandana, to see if it would help. Zeus never got the first flea, and as an added bonus, we saw a marked difference in his behaviour. He calmed down!! However, he did get another tick or two...so, after more research, I used a combination of essential oils on a new collar/bandana, and he has not had a tick since. The new combo is supposed to keep away all insects, including mosquitos and flies. I am selling these for $5, and they will last around 90 days, about the same as a regular flea/tick collar. I have read that they do not work well for cats, apparently cats are sensitive to essential oils, but in my experience it works very well for a dog! I make them as a collar or a bandana, for those doggies who don't like bandanas!<br />

I am carrying a full load, so this should be interesting. I hope it doesn't cut into my sewing time too much, LOL. Yesterday I made 7 new taggie blankets. I want to attach pacie holders, but haven't found any affordable options yet. Will keep searching ebay till I find something. I have lots of ideas swimming around in my brain for new monsters...maybe I'll start on those later...after spending half the day at the college, this old brain is a little tapped out. ;)<br />

Lots of sewing...lots of custom orders. I am going to just post a bunch of random pics, so you can see a little of what I've been up to. I have SOOOO many ideas in my head about things I want to make, and there just aren't enough hours in the day. Hubby and I will both start school in the fall, so time will be even more difficult to find, I'm afraid. Anyway, for those who are interested....here are a few things, and I promise to TRY to do better in the future. :)<br />

I have bone spurs and arthritis in my neck, and love using a neck pillow. A few months ago, mine sprung a leak, and I started finding little beans all over the house, so I decided to make another. This one is made of soft flannel (and I love this print!) and filled with organic buckwheat hulls and lavender and chamomile. It can be heated in the microwave, and it feels so nice!<br />

I found this amusing, because when I ordered this material, I thought "no one but my mom could like this". Mom's taste is a bit eccentric, but hey, so is mine! Anyway, when I told mom, she was less than pleased, saying that she thought she was getting an original, and she didn't want everyone having a purse like hers. So after these two, this fabric will have to be retired, LOL. I did change this one up a little, with a different color lining, and a button/snap closure. So here is a pic of the newest one.<br />

If you know me, it fits, LOL. I got some different cloth, and made another today while it snowed, sleeted, rained...etc.<br />

I have batting in it, and thought about quilting it, but decided against, and here's how it turned out. I'm kinda proud of the front pocket, all lined up with the shell, just like someone who knows what she's doing. :)<br />

I hadn't sewn in years, and one day I saw a program while I was in a doctor's waiting room that inspired me. We had just found out that my daughter Lindsey was expecting our first grandchild, a girl, and I wanted to make her something special. I had kept many of my childrens' drawings over the years, and I wanted to incorporate Lindsey's childish drawings into a quilt for her baby. I didn't take photos when I finished it, so this photo was taken today, almost 11 months later, after being loved and washed and dried, and loved some more. This quilt made the trip home from the hospital with Ryleigh, and goes everywhere with her. What more could a grandma ask? Lindsey says people inquire about the quilt everywhere she goes. It was definitely a labor of love, my crazy sewing machine balking every stitch of the way. For this reason, most of the applique work is hand-stitched. It was all worth it, seeing how attached Ryleigh is to it.<br />

But I have found that even the ones I don't like turn out to be something that other people do! So I guess that's a good thing! Here's a new taggie, and a kooky little taggie bird.<br />

She loves anything shiny and silky feeling. Thanks to my great friend Tonya, for the tip on a better quality thread, which allowed me to use my decorative stitches for the FIRST time today with no problems!!! <br />
