Waaah

They don't match! Such a bummer! I need to find a new fabric for the handle. I will still be able to find something to make with the stripe and other fabric, but the Olive Acanthus DOES NOT match the other 2 and it's the MAIN one!

I've see lots of stuff on etsy that is eclectic and fabrics that I would not have put together myself...but these don't really work to me...

ho hum.

Awesome Camera Straps

Jessica Sprague offered a contest to win one of these cool camera straps a couple of Photoshop Fridays ago during the Shazam Tutorial.

These are so cute! They are made by Natalie Putnam - owner of "Cotton Candy by Natalie" on Etsy. It is a great way to personalize your SLR with a yummy new accessory!

Birthday!

Awesome! I ordered the fabric and the pattern for the Amy Butler Birdie Sling and Caleb made it for me for my birthday! Happy Birthday to me :P Bob's gift was my Canon Digital Rebel XTi-(He's loving the fact that this counts all year long :)) My Mom got me an awesome set of Bare Minerals, I got a sweet note from Grandma Pierce, a lunch invite from my Sis, and a Natalie Grant Concert from my sweet Jake! Don't forget loads of hugs and kisses from Natester!

New Find

I am REALLy having to resist beginning a new/old obsession. I went ahead and purchased the Amy Butler pattern for the sling purse, but now I see two more fabulous designers and their Yummy work. I was surfing Elizabeth Kartchner's Blog and I saw several cute ideas and these designers:
Sandy Henderson and her "Ginger Blossom" line of fabric and Heather Bailey and her lines. Simply Delicious! It make me want to create my own stuff to see all their beautiful work. Of course, it also makes me wish I had some little girls to sew for, but for now I can just enjoy the 'eye candy' :D

thanx for visiting!

Yummy Amy Butler

A new discovery... I get emails from Cosmo Cricket and one thing led to another and VOILA! I'm in LOVE with Amy Butler Fabrics! I have been eyeing them on EBay and you can buy patterns and even kits! I'm currently resisting the temptation to buy some and make myself a bag---as we all know, I have a VERY limited amount of free time, so it's somewhat impractical to even consider having time to sew myself a new bag....BUT they are Sooo YUMMY!
