Summer & Twitter!

I'm almost done with my semester!  I've been so deprived of sewing and all things crafty while away.  (while, I suppose I'm being crafty in different ways... you have to be when everything for school had to fit into 2 suitcases & a carry on)

I'll be back in 2 1/2 weeks, and posting lots of projects this summer!  I just signed up for Twitter, yes, I am behind the times, so if you want updates on new postings, follow me at @SeWhatHappening  Yup, had to ditch a couple of letters to make the name fit (so it isn't a typo, I combined the two "w"s and got rid of the "s" )

Projects I'm planning on right away are more t-shirt reconstructions!  Also, I'll probably post about the baby projects and quiet books.  Fun stuff :)

Now, I just have to get through my 8 remaining finals first....

break from blog

I'm heading back to school in a few days!  Originally, I planned on blogging during the semester but instead will put this one on hold until summer.  No new content for awhile, but I'll still be around, so feel free to contact me.

For family and friends who are interested in my adventures at school, I will be doing a private blog about that.  Let me know your gmail info, so I can add you to the reader list :)

Same size??

I've heard sizing really varies with baby clothes... but was surprised to actually see the range of the two onesie/bodysuits shown above.  These are both listed as the same size (3-6months I think) but are different brands.  

Crazy excited!

The arrival of my sweet little neice or nephew is expected in a little over a month.  Lets just say, I am one crazy excited Aunt :)  I can't wait to meet the little peanut.

 

My Mom & I threw a baby shower for the lovely Mommy-to-be and baby last week, so now it is safe to start posting some pictures of what I've been up to in the craft/sewing room lately.

The last month!

A lot has been up lately.  Visiting cousins in Japan, co-hosting a baby shower, Thanksgiving cooking, and starting my packing list for school (everything I need for 4 months needs to fit in 2 to 3 suitcases).  There are probably a lot of other things I'm forgetting now too.

I'm still sewing a lot, and can post soon about some of the things I made for the baby shower :)

 

Still not SCUBA certified (swam out in really cold water to test... only to find out we couldn't because clarity was too low... we're going to wait until the spring to try again), but did lots of snorkeling!

lace curtains?

In the process of organizing my house, I've come across some fabric I forgot about.  Shortly after we moved into our house we took down the curtains in our living room and have yet to replace them.  We have shades up though, don't worry!  I'm just not sure what kind of curtain I want to put in that room yet... I change my mind  a lot when it comes to home decor :)

 

Anyways the previous curtains included an outer layer of lace.  The lace for whatever reason DIDN'T match from window to window and had definite wear and tear.

 

 

I've debated on making a dress out of it... maybe dye it?

Any other ideas?
