- Lost our first internet connection
- Gained a new connection for 2 weeks
- Lost our new connection....a month passed
- Got our new internet connection....now we are on our own and trucking away at using the net.
As for sewing,
- Won gold at Skills USA...going to Pensacola at the end of this month to compete in the state competition
- Won four ribbons and money at the fair for my sewing garments
- Also rode a camel at the fair....just as impressive
- Went to the driving range, hit a few good balls, but many bad balls
- Went to Daytona Beach with some friends and got to hang out in a million dollar condo on the beach, (not mine of course, but one can always dream)
- Our apartment rental company went out of business and fell off the face of the earth. We just got a new rental company and extended our lease through April. What a relief. I thought we were going to have to move while I was competing at the state Skills event.
- Taking a couple of Lycra classes from a master at work. She is by far the queen of stretch. Because of this, I fell in love with my serger. I mean, I am all about the stretch garments now. Check out this dress I made in class.
- My hubby and I took pictures and designed a portfolio for my sewing work.
- I painted a picture that we attached to the portfolio binder for the front of the portfolio.
- We went to Myrtle Beach to visit my dad who was sick and is getting better. Bobs got a new bed out of the deal.
- I took a bindings class at work and learned a very valuable lesson. Make sure to stitch the front along with the batting to the back of your wall hangings, ha!
- Oh, and I have 2 fashion shows quickly approaching. I have to get a skirt made, t-shirt, tailored men's jacket, redo the sleeves with plackets on a men's dress shirt, make cargo pants and shorten Brian's tie for the first show April 23...yikes...time flies by when you are sewing.
