ScrapHappy Saturday

 

It is a good thing that I chose a small color for May! I did it quite deliberately, knowing that both a wedding and graduation would take up a bit of time. If only there were a few inches of empty space in my sewing room I would be wildly creating fabric beauty. 

Yesterday was the last day of school! So now there is time. But Sydney has invaded my sewing room, the guest room. Finding a clutter free area of the house has become tricky. We celebrated her birthday on Tuesday. It was Monday, but we never saw her on that day. It is a bit chaotic when the recent college graduate is home for a gap month before starting a new job apparently.  All the love in the world! We are happy to see her from time to time while we host her makeup and clothes. She has been catching up with the boyfriend from Iowa who goes to college here at FIT. She is doing a girls weekend with high school friends who are now done with college and back for the summer. She is loving every minute of it and we are so happy to have her her (along with her wardrobe of course).  


I mostly finished a t-shirt quilt with things that I had saved from middle school and high school. It is not a pretty color combination, but it is my youth. We have had teachers in making their own t-shirt quilts in our new makerspace at school. I will try to snap a photo as we start getting to the flimsy stage with some of them. 

Mr. Linky was being difficult. I think it is working now. This might be my motivation to move to InLinkz which is prettier anyway.
