I'm Having a Sew, Sew Saturday...Join Me


For some reason, I didn't post a Sew Sew Saturday last week. Must be losing my mind...nothing new there. I swear if I don't make a "To Do" list of things to get done...they don't get done! but I digress.

It's Saturday and my intent for this post each weekend is to make an appointment with myself to SEW and to get YOU to join in with me. During the week, I work, clean the house, do the laundry, run errands, shop, blog, pinterest etc...just never make the time to sew as much as I'd like.

Sooo, here we are on another Saturday. This morning, I am going to sew a few things for my Etsy shop that I will be opening up some day soon. I'm trying to sew a little stock first before I open it up. Scared to death to take that leap of opening a shop, but all my new comers took the leap yesterday and joined the Find a Friend Friday linking party, so I can't be scared to open up an Etsy shop!! Right? Go visit them HERE if you haven't already...so many great blogs!

I will do a little sewing this morning, go for a walk with hubby, bring my mom flowers at the cemetery for Mother's Day and then we'll take a trip to visit our 2 daughters at college. We are going out for dinner with them for Mother's Day, but also taking a load of way too much stuff back home with us. If we take some stuff back with us today, both their cars won't be too packed when they have to do it themselves next week.



They are almost done though! They'll be home Tuesday or Wednesday according to their final exam schedule. Can't wait to have them home again. Thankfully, they are at the same school and we see them about once a month, but we miss them to pieces.

Ok ladies and maybe some gents ( not sure though)...get out your Sew Sew Saturday projects and let's hear those sewing machines humming or your hands humming if you're doing some hand sewing.

Either way...

WE'RE HAVING A SEW SEW SATURDAY!!!

What's on your project list today?

Happy sewing,
~Karen~

  1. Isn't it funny how that works. When we took DD to school in Aug. we had one car load. We went up twice in the past 3 weeks and still had a car full when she came home on Wednesday!

  2. This is our Project Saturday~ Sew n' Sew! The 2nd Saturday of each month we have a Sew n' Sew. We take turns choosing the projects and then on the Sew n' Sew Saturday we complete the project chosen. Todays project is circles. What fun! Check out Rose of Sharon Studio on facebook for pictures of our past Project Saturday Sew n' Sews. We do have fun!

  4. Today I made a shabby chic (roses) table topper, round, for my "new" breakfast room which I will post about on Monday. Your girls are beautiful, so glad you get to see them often. Happy Mother's Day.

  6. I finished my BOM just in time for tomorrow's show n tell at the LQS and pick-up of the next block. Nothing like leaving it to the last minute! Then I painted the hen house and BBQ a turkey breast for dinner. All in all a good day.

  7. I'm working on my Tova top,,,still. Then there's my sewing machine cover that mysteriously shrunk by about 7 inches when I sewed it together (guess that's what I get for lovin' on the grandbaby instead of paying attention to what I was doing--so worth it!). Cover's unstitched, new strips sewn up today, ready to stretch that sucker & get it bound!
