I haven't meant to be neglectful I just didn't really have anything to say. I'm feeling much better but now my daughter has a cold. I feel bad for her but at least its spring break and she's not missing any school. I've just been working on the sewing. This one is the fifth of the twelve I have. I was trying to think about how I would attach them when I was done and I was reminded of the quilting fabric that comes in long strips (one of the name brands is Jelly Roll). I think this would give me and easy way to do it without lots if cutting, it would also give me an excuse to visit a local quilt shop. I found my missing needle so I'm back to working on charity knitting. I have a bunch of weeks to catch up on so that's next on the list.
Speaking of visiting places I visited a new yarn shop in the area. It's called The Naked Sheep Yarn Barn. It's kind of an intermediate step between big box stores and the indi yarns. The other yarn store in the area seems to cater to a little higher end yarn so between them both we have every style covered. I think I may go there and sit and knit on Fridays after the kids go back to school. One of the owners I've actually met before. For a little while I was a member of a spinning and weaving guild (then my husband's schedule changed and I couldn't go there anymore) and she is a member there. It could be interesting with this new store, we'll see how it goes.
Amey and I are still doing nail art but noting has come out nicely enough for me to want to show you. I'm getting better at dot flowers. It was harder that it looks in all the videos. I'm still having the peeling problem but I just paint it over and over. I give each design about five days then give my nails a day to rest naked before I do something new. That's it that has been going on around here. If I can get some projects done I'll show you, until then it might be a little slow, See you next time.
