There are some exciting plans in the works right now for Common Threads that we will hopefully be able to share with you soon and I have many more things that I need to add to my own personal to-do list! I figured if I filled you guys in on some of them not only would I have a handy list to refer to but it may even motivate me to actually do a few of them! So here goes!
*Summer pajamas - sew pajama shorts for the boys, myself and especially Jason, who was given an IOU for one pair for Father's Day!
*Finish my sister's blanket for her that she started for her daughter (aka my niece Charley!).
*Keep working on my granny squares that I have abandoned. Poor, poor granny squares.
*Learn embroidery basics...hmmmm where to start with this one?
*Finish my fabric bunting tutorial...hopefully this will be posted some time next week!
*Find a tripod for my camera or see if Jessi's would work for mine.
*Update our Flickr - maybe add a personal photos section?
*Make dentist appointments! (I am embarrassed to admit how long it has been!)
*Finish watching The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo...I think we have tried tree times and are still only about halfway through. Oh the joys of trying to watch a movie with babies around!
*Make a beach date! We need some sand and sun time!
What do you have on your to do list? I get so torn with sunny summer days, family and blogging all calling. So much to do and so little time! Anyways, hope you are all having a beautiful summer and are finding the time to do the things that make you happy!
PS - Oh and a Happy Canada Day Weekend to all!!
Dentist appointments, check, eye appointments oops. Beach time, planned as we are taking off to the shores of both Superior and Michigan in a couple of weeks to see some family.
ReplyDeleteSchool's out though and since my husband's a teacher (Gr. 7/8) he's home too ... which means the list gets longer, but reviewed at least...in between golf games. Last night after Montana's we actually did some yardwork! :) I'm sure our neighbour was enjoying watching us finally address the weedy flower beds. As my 11 year-old said, the yellow and purple flowers of the weeds look 'kinda nice'.
I work through the summer with my sewing biz but being added constantly is sewing for ME and thanks to you, Mandi, I have added PJs for my sweeties because they just keep growing darn it :)
Thanks for adding me on the left here!
