tuesdays and thursdays...if i'm lucky

So I get the opportunity to watch Hunter once and a while. He is so much FUN. The pictures and video are actually from tuesday today we didn't get to play...but tomorrow is Halloween!

He gets into EveRYthInG it is so funny to see what he finds interesting. He is just so dang cute.

He also really likes to run around the ottoman he goes around and around and AROUND. The video was taken towards the end of one of his strolls. Oh and he found all the belts and played with all of those so he is still wearing one of them.

just another project

In home decor sewing we finally finished our linen project. I made a tablecloth others in my class made runner, placemats, and napkins.

It was a simple project but it was kinda big and took a long time to iron my thick fabric with the double fold evenly. Just look at my beautiful mitered corners though...too bad they are on the back side.

not a whole lot going on

So there isn't much new with us. We just go to school and then Berret does tons of homework and I work on cleaning and various other projects. I recently got some of my sewing projects back from my classes. Take a look...
This is the sleeper I made in childrens sewing. Other projects I've done for that class have been booties, a bib, and a t-shirt. We are now making jackets.
These are the pj pants I made for Berret in clothing contruction. There are tractors and hay all over the fabric. This class goes quite slow the only other thing we've done is a pillow case. We are now working on button up shirts.
Floral arranging is a really fun class because I get to come home with flowers every week. Left-triangular arrangment Top-bud vase Bottom-corsage
Couple of weekend ago Berret and I went to Utah and had tons of fun. We got to go shopping at IKEA!!! It was really fun seeing Collette and Laura. This is a pic of Collette's house in the first snow of the year. Cute huh...

get good pics!

Anyone need pictures done? My friend Carly has a photography business and well she is basically AmaZiNg. Check out some of her work at http://www.carlycarlson.com/ her site is very clear with rates and such. After seeing her work I'm sure you'll be wanting to schedule a session.

classes...

Berret and I have been pretty boring lately. We are both just in school and Berret has tons of homework all the time. My classes have been fun we have accomplished a few small projects in my sewing classes. Floral design has been actually interesting even though its been 2 full hours of lecture each class. Today though we finally got to work with the FLOWERS!! We learned how to properly put the wire through difffernt types of flowers and used the floral tape. Then we got to work more on bows that I find extremely frustrating. Put it all together and we have some corsages. Below are 2 corsages I made today.
