{Sunday Lately} Week 42

A day late and a dollar short...better late than never right?! What have you been up to this week?

This week's themes: Doing, Appreciating, Designing, Humming, Expecting

Doing: I have a few pattern tests that I have been working on this week. One of them just released [Telluride Henley from Terra's Treasures] and I am really loving how simple that you can go on this one and wear everyday. It is so comfortable that I actually ended wearing it to bed one day.

Appreciating: This week in homeschooling went REALLY well. Homeschooling is one of those things that you really just need to attack day by day. Was yesterday rough? Start today a new, and don't look back on tomorrow. We have had many struggles with schooling, so I am appreciating the fact that we were able to work though it flawlessly this week. What a blessing for mama ;)

Designing: I did a bit of work on our Halloween costumes for this year. Hubby wanted to be Beetlejuice, so we practiced a bit with his makeup this week. There are a few things that I need to tweak, but overall I am really happy with the result. I love playing around with costume makeup! I have still been pondering a bit on the kids costumes and how I am going to tackle them, but I think that I finally have the design plan down. I suppose that I need to work on that this week. The boys will be Ice Mario & Luigi and my daughter will be Ice Princess (not to be confused with Elsa).

Humming: I actually pulled out my old CD's this week and jammed out to some music from high school. It was nice to reminisce a bit about the carefree days, but I wouldn't trade them for anything. I am also loving listening to my favorite country station on Pandora.

Expecting: I have a bit of sewing that I am wanting to get done this week, including some unfinished products for others, testing, and Halloween costumes. Praying for a good sewing week and another great week in school. And, I just had to share what happened to me this week. My sewing buddies would understand. The wheel of my rolling chair popped off because I had SO much thread caught in there that I could no longer roll. HAHA! I pulled out all the threads and popped it back on, but I couldn't believe how much was in there. I really need to clean all the other wheels now!

Sewing peeps would understand! When the wheel on your rolling chair pops off because there was too much thread stuck in it to move 😕 Got it all fixed, but geeze....that's just from ONE wheel. #sewingproblems #sewing #sewingmama #isew
