Long time, no blog

It's been a busy 2 weeks since Easter. I can't believe I have neglected my blog for so long. The good news is...there is a lot to post.

Last week I took some of my Pack N Play sheets into a local children's store (Growing Spurts) and the owner agreed to sell them in her store. I've been selling them on ebay for a year, but I'm getting tired of shipping them. I'll still sell a few on ebay every now and then, and I've considered an etsy store, but....I'm still considering it. I should have taken a picture of them once they were all packaged. I was very pleased with the way they turned out. Since I don't have a picture of the finished, packaged product, here is a picture of my favorite fabric.
If you live in the area, you should check out Growing Spurts. It has a lot of used children's clothing and some used toys, Pack 'N Plays, strollers, swings, etc. I have found cute pants and skirts for Boo there. They also sell new Melissa and Doug puzzles for cheaper than even Wal-Mart.

I was on deck for jury duty this week. I had to call each evening to see if my group was needed, so I tried to keep the week free of scheduling. I ended up never being called, so Boo and I ended up with a lot of free time at home. So out came my unfinished project box. Ok, in all honesty, I have an entire closet full of unfinished projects. (I think that this character trait of mine may eventually drive J to drink hard liquor). But this box contains the ones that are nearly finished. And I finished three projects. I think I deserve a victory lap for that. ;)

  2. Yay for you! There is a children's store by us and I have been thinking about taking my balls in to see if they would sell them--I think you just convinced me!
