Zing...

That's the sound of my brain! Do you ever feel like life is traveling at warp speed, that you are juggling a hundred balls and praying that they don't all drop? That's life right now and I am so happy! Happy that one of the things that has been occupying my time is sewing (more sewing=less blogging). I finished the shirt dress and a Jalie top except for the hem which will be finished after work. I have several things cut out to work on and some are similar colors so I can batch sew. I have several fun sewing jobs lined up...a Pitbull skirt, with corresponding people skirt for said Pitbull. I have already digitized the Pitbull sillhouette that my friend sent me into an applique. I had to order some fabric for Nancy's skirt, so I spent some quality time at Fabric.com! I hadn't shopped there since they ticked me off. It was like I was an addict getting a fix! Of course I had to order enough to get free shipping! ITY knits on sale and I found a 15% off coupon code...Oh my!!! I have a poodle to sew on to another circle skirt for a friend who trains...wait for it...poodles! She does freestyling, which is basically doggy dancing if you want to get down to it. Tom is over in LaPine working on the shop, so I have been gathering the things I forgot to send to take over after I get off work on Friday for a fun filled weekend of work! Kodi went over with Tom and I really miss him...Tom said Kodi must be missing me too because he has been moping around the trailer and refused to take his glucosamine (I normally just offer it to him and he eats it out of my hand). Jo was being a little poop today, hiding when it was time to go to work, so I left his sorry butt home! Let the cat torment him! The cat has been a real PITA lately in the studio. Why is it she gets all lovey-dovey when you are trying to cut a buttonhole? Seriously, can't she do her rubbing and purring while we're watching a movie or something? Sheesh! Really I do enjoy her in the studio, except when she is batting my thread into the garbage can, or blocking my light, or...well, just about time to shut this puter down and head for the homestead...Later Chicas!

I really hope you are going to show us a modeled photo of the pitbull skirt!
