Winner!

Thanks for all of the fantastic feedback on the tutorial! I'm actually working on a crochet hat pattern right now and will be posting that soon, so be sure to check back!

We have a winner in the giveaway, mushroommeadows name was drawn from the hat! Have you seen her blog? She has the cutest illustrations! I'd like to thank everyone for participating, I just love giveaways and plan on doing more in the future.

It's been an exciting but easy going weekend. Several house projects and "must watch" films have kept me occupied, along with some good old fashion girl time with my rad friend Izzy. Also, I'm waiting on a fairly large fabric order to come in and I'm just so geeked. Lots of new prints to play with and I have a few new ideas.

I finally mustered up the courage to cut my hair yesterday. I've been in need of a change and confidence boost for sometime so I just decided to go for it. I took about 5 inches off, but I'm so happy with the results! Here, let me strike a pose...

I have a large bin of blackberries call my name, so I must be off. Hope your weekend was a wonderful one.

New fabrics and fun...

I've decided to postpone my favorite Etsy items until tomorrow. I've had a lot of fun searching through Etsy to pick out item's I'd love to own and think others should see. So yes, check back.

Today I took a walk to the Fancy Tiger here in Denver. The sunshine did wonders for my mood. It was such a beautiful day. I picked up some fabulous new fabrics including a yummy chocolate brown cord and a couple cotton prints. Also, some "you-should-be-so-jealous" yarn. It's bulky 100% alpaca. I see a hat in it's future. There were so many things I wanted! Also, FT is hosting an open craft night tomorrow and I'm hoping I'll be able to go. I need to get a bunch of stuff done before I can commit.

I also found some snazzy new pins today. A very entertaining alphabet set and another cute pastel set. I just love the little hearts! Now, all I need is a new pincushion that will do them justice.

And to finish off a delightful day, I looked to my old stand-by for a tasty dinner. Fine dining to five year olds and a fabulous feast for me.

Pass the pepper?
