Really bad instructions by anne
I picked up a Bucilla kit for making felt flowers for under $2 at HobbyLobby not long ago. Last night, I pulled it out and got a massive headache when I tried to decipher the instructions which are on 1 doubled sided page in English, French, and Spanish. I understand that printing costs money...

On topic - favourite psalm by MargW
I've been thinking of doing a piece for church and for our Minister. I could do the 23rd psalm, but would like to do something different, especially since I am going to try designing it myself. It has to be one of the shorter psalms since I don't want it to be too enormous. I love Psalm 121 (I...

ON topic - so much for my plans for the day by Cheryl Isaak
Well, my plan should have been taking effect right about now - a cup of tea to warm up, clean out the kitchen sinks to a fare-thee-well and wash my finish. Sweep up the floor and set up the ironing board to press it. Then I was going to get the sewing machine set up and attach some trim to...

Eye candy! by Jinx Minx
So I finally had a few moments between the baby and unpacking moving boxes to peruse the latest Nordic Needle catalog that came last week. I have to admit, it's actually been a few years since I've been inspired by any new patterns but I think the cold spell is over! First thing to catch my...
