Isn't he cute

While I was resting to day , I felt someone on my bed ---- my beloved pet Bebe & his friend Mr. Monkey.

Here is a pic of the pattern I used to make the dress.

My nieces' Quiencera dress

The pattern is Butterick #5134.

Whew! finally here is a pic of a dress I made for my niece. She celebrated her 15th Birthday in a big way.

Snow storm recks havoc on my shopping storm!

Well, today was the day to go to my first sewing meetup in New York City to the Garment District but, we got snow all afternoon. It has been rescheduled for Feburary. I was almost ready to brave the elements to get there, well anyway we will see what Feburary holds.

Happy New Year.

I had a great holiday season. Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Years were celebrated just the way I wanted. Very quietly. Just myself , hubby & kids.

Thanks to my fellow blogger Wannasew, I found a sewing Meet-up group in my area. I will be going to the garment district in NYC. Check back for updates.

I have been sewing, just haven't had time to download pics yet.

Until next time.

Be Blessed
Stay Blessed

Thanksgiving 2008

We had a great time. I cooked dinner, we ate & watched movies all day. No guest -just me, hubby & the kids.

Until later
Chow for now

So much to do , So little time

I haven't been bloging for a while now. I have just been viewing other sewing blogs. Oh, but I have been shopping. My daughter has been helping me to restrain but the sales have been great. I have a lot on my plate, with 3 teenagers and a 21 year old. It is generally thought that the older your children are the less they need you. DON"T believe that. When they are young they my dum mistakes but when they are older they can make LIFE CHANGING MISTAKES. So we as parents need to watch more closely. I don't know where I would be if it wasn't for prayer.
I definitely have to depend on the Lord to help me.

I am also in school, I got a "A" on my midterm paper . :-))))
My middle son is in the process of graduating from High school - he is on the football team and can think of nothing else but football.
The other 2 are faring well in school & the other normal stuff.
(Boyfriends, girlfriends, what shall I wear?, What's the latest this that & the other, what they want for christmas) All the stuff teens do.

My husband.....oh enough said
The dog......

I need a break, time to re foucus myself
