My violin!! I mean it. I really truly do.

This is me today

We just threw boiling water out the door to see if it would freeze before it hit the ground...








it didn't.. BUT it almost worked! It was quite fun though :)

You Know it's Cold Outside When...

1) Half the cars in the grocery store parking lot are left running.

2) I'm wearing leggings.

3) You are cold working over a fryer because there is cold air seeping down through the fryer vents.

4) I've had 2 cups of coffee already and it's only 2:30.

5) People run everywhere.

*Knock, Knock*

Anybody there??

WOW!!

2 of the greatest violinists of all time

Recent Sewing Acquisitions

I thought you all might like to see some sewing items I inherited when my Gr. Grandma passed away this August.

The first took me a few seconds to figure out what it was:




It's a pin cushion :)  If you hold it with the open part facing towards you it kinda looks like a microphone.

The second we found up in the attic.  When I found out it was up there, I asked my uncle if I could Please have it!! If no one else does.  He said I should just take it because no one else would want it.  So, I got a dress form!!!



I haven't used it yet.  I'm making a dress right now, and when I get back to working on it I'm going to use it.
