A busy day of sewing!

All the things I've been working on. Getting ready for a Fall Craft Fair! Looking forward to what it brings!

About Time!

Remodeling of Kitchen underway----What a mess! I will show after pics, but, I'm afraid that is going to be quite some time from now!

This is my sewing machine mess! I really really have been busy, honest! Amidst the remodeling going on and the Craft Fairs and sending dauther #3 off to Russia for a mission, I'm not sure if I'm coming or going!

This is a new little dog I've created. he's about 7 or 8 inches total length including ears and legs. I thought he was kinda cute....??

Giraffe a baff went to a baby shower in Columbia, MO. Hope they liked him.

This little monkey also went to the same baby shower.... He's hanging around over there now. I think the swing got to him!

Climbing out of the box.

This is only the beginnings of the sewing I was doing for the Fall Craft Fair at Church on the 30th of October.

I was really busy the whole month of September and October! Not really sure where the time went but, I can attest to being super busy! How people find time to post and do all that they do, I'm not sure.

Hope this Monday finds everyone in your world doing a-okay.

Gotta love a Monday.... wish it included some zzzzzz's...

It's May!

I'm back! I wanted to share with you the items I have so frantically been working on and these things that have kept me busy. It helped me to not be dwelling on my loss. You understand. It's been rough, but, I have kept busy.... Here are some of the things I have been working on and you can find the others at my Flickr account.

When I wake up

I'm going to get back to the living. I've only been asleep for a while. Let me mourn for the loss I have suffered. It isn't asking too much to allow me some time. I will come back and probably pick up the pieces of what is left. I only needed some time. This was a hard one. I have to admit. Took me a while to get used to the idea of him not being there anymore. Still have yet to return and feel the emptiness. I'm going to get that opportunity next weekend.

The stuff I've been working on and keeping myself busy is not for sale. It is a whole host of Krinklekids(my creation), to give away to children 0-12 months in our church nursery for baby day. I've also crocheted 5 sets of 10 fish (all the colors of the rainbow), to go to children 2-3. Now, I've got to create 10 patchwork stuffed balls for the 1-2 year olds can play with. That should be awesome fun for them, don't you think? While I work on this stuff, I forget.

Someone wants to know about my etsy shop. I've not figured it all out yet. I'm a little slow. Bear with me. If you have a need for the things I make, or if you'd like to see the things I've been working on, check out my facebook fan page: owlishlycute. I also have a flickr account. Right now, most searches there can be done by typing in Amigukid. Those are my crochet amigurumi pals. I really do need to get a new camera to start taking better photos of my work! Ugh! It's all so overwhelming to me.

Contact me by email: byhisgrace61@yahoo.com or you can join Facebook, and become my friend there: Martha Harwell Adams. Owlishly cute will take you to the fan page I created.

Have a great week.

Thursday makings

Here it is another Thursday already in the new year! I have this to post today---

Well, today I hope to get to a few more projects. Yesterday, I made a trip wallet for my daughter's 25th birthday. I of course, forgot to take my camera to get a picture of it. What I did was take my new little portable tiny sewing machine that I got for umhmm, Christmas, and wanted to see how it would work. Well, I wasn't too impressed with it, but, it was handy. It makes carrying my normal machine around a little less cumbersome. Has anyone else had any kind of thoughts about those little mending type of machines?

So sad to see what is going on in Haiti! I hope they can get things back together before more quakes come along!

Have a super duper Thursday everyone!

I made it! I made it! Whoo Hoo!

I made it to the Big List of Sewing Blogs! Yahoo! I am clear down at the bottom of the list, but, hey, I made it! I'm so proud of myself! I never thought I'd ever get out there with my sewing! I think I'm just beginning! Look out world! Here I come! I am so excited!

You won't believe all that I'm working on right now, and no pics! LOL! Here is the list:
1. 2 Cloth Dolls
2. 2 crocheted Amigukids (those are my amigurumi)!
3. Purse
4. A watercolor landscape

All this for my daughter's Silent Art Auction to help her raise money to go to put on VBS at a Russian Orphanage! I'm so stoked to be a part of something bigger than myself!

So, I'll post some pics as soon as possible! In the mean time, keep checking out my flickr pics and my other blog post! You'll find me up to something!
