3 hours!
Ah the simple pleasures of life. Sadie took an unprecedented 3 hour nap this afternoon. That's right 3 hours!! Shocker I know. That just made my day today, what a difference an extra hour can make. Although the only down side was I didn't want to start a big project because I just new the very second I started I'd hear squawking from the back room letting me know she was ready to play. So really I wasn't quite as productive as I should have been, but I sure enjoyed it none the less.
I am making a quilt and have just started hand quilting it together. I'm realizing it's really hard to get nice small stitches, really I don't know how people make them so small. My fingers are getting a little sore already and I've just started. This will be a fun project to work on while we watch shows at night. (Speaking of shows, we really need some new shows to watch for this fall. With Lost not starting till winter I'm not sure what we're going to do without it, any suggestions are welcome). I'm getting excited to finish this quilt, it's made from the scraps of all the nursing covers I've made. Well this little project will be occupying my time for the next while I'm sure. I'll post pictures once it's all done.....that could be a while.
For those of you who want a cool skirt like the one I made, come out here to visit and I'll teach you how to make one!! A little incentive to get some visitors out here in the midwest.
