Halloween 2014 - Mad Hatter and the Rabbit (sort of)

Halloween has always been a favorite holiday. Loved making the kid's costumes and decking out the house. It's not easy finding a costume for Annie, they just don't make a whole lot of XXL dogs.

I don't get any kids at my place, hills way to steep so plan to spend the time in the kitchen baking things to fill the studio with wonderful memories. Happy Halloween

Happy Halloween!

 Halloween has always been a favorite holiday for me. Always fun to dress up the kids. Annie will be going as the rabbit from Alice in Wonderland. I will be going as the Mad Hatter. Having the space to do a whole Halloween set has been fun, just wish more people could see it.

Working on the design set for Christmas.

Crafting Meet Up group

A few months back I joined a crafting Meet Up group. I wanted to learn some new skills and people who share the same interest in crafting. With so many of the mom and pop stores closing, find affordable classes is slowly fading away.

I found this Meet Up group that charges $5-$10 per class, which is super cheap. The group leader isn't in the business and the classes are held in her conference room at work. Very little over head. I like the format so much I offered to do a iris folding class for them. It sold out in less than an hour. Two cards = $5.00.

First class with be the simple fan and circle. Second class will be the Christmas ornament and Michael Strong's kimono.

Team Annie - Champion Circle

Team Annie raised $2,200.00 for the Alzheimer's walk. 

Annie also took top honors as the winner of the biggest fundraiser along with winner a cash raffle prizes. 

Family Home To Be Sold

It's the final days for the parent's house. We hand the keys over on Monday and the house goes on the market in November. Sad the house couldn't stay in the family but there are too many of us for that to happen. Lots of fond memories.
