http://busyhandsarehappyhands.blogspot.com/2008_04_01_archive.html
Tuesday, April 22, 2008. An Apron for Liz. Liz is getting married in May- This apron was part of her shower gift. A quilt for Bright- March 2008. I am not sure it turned out what I hoped for- the colors maybe are drab? But I prefer to think they are kind of "old" looking to go with the the retro print. ( I loved this print! Generally I am pleased and I had a good time quilting freemotion "flowers" on it. Size about 48 by 58. Ps A pillowcase and doll quilt to match:-). Saturday, April 5, 2008. Http:/ love...

http://busyhandsarehappyhands.blogspot.com/2009/05/so-im-thinking-65-quarts-is-enough-i-am.html
Friday, May 29, 2009. So- I'm thinking 65 quarts is enough- I am NOT going back- the season is about done- harder to pick- my knees and back hurt more now- more rotten ones- eeewww. Then it hits me-. ALL THOSE STRAWBERRIES that my DH paid for(to support my picking obsession) and all in freezer or given away- and NO strawberry pie for DH! For the 30 years we've been married-. I made a treat. He responds by saying.(EVERY TIME, MIND YOU- even in December). How shoney's made their pie! A Bit About Cindy.

busy hands: July 2008
http://busyhandsarehappyhands.blogspot.com/2008_07_01_archive.html
Wednesday, July 16, 2008. North Dakota pt 3. I soon realized as I began working here in this little apt on my little table that I needed to get organized. I was nuts misplacing things all the time- Also- I thought it would be good to have something I could use at home too- and to quickly pack up for classes. I have seen several projects- but I sort of made these 2 up in my brain borrowing from what I remembered seeing. North Dakota Sewing Part 2. Teeny little bluebrids floating on a creamy background.

busy hands: The "Oldmops" apron
http://busyhandsarehappyhands.blogspot.com/2009/06/oldmops-apron.html
Sunday, June 7, 2009. This looks a little contrived- doesn't it? Since I don't like to take pictures of myself and nobody lives here to model it for me - except my husband:) I try to find interesting ways to photograph what I have made, but I realize photography is not my "gift". Boy- writing directions is HARD and a well-written pattern is worth the money it costs! Those people who write them deserve every penny! June 8, 2009 at 7:35 AM. June 8, 2009 at 3:07 PM. Oh, that is so cute! You are so creative!
