Hey, sports fans! I am grouchy today. I went for a walk. It didn't help. I went to Costco. It didn't help. I ate chocolate. It didn't help. I let the boys watch a movie during quiet time so that it would actually be quiet. It only helped a little. I am running out of ideas here. They say that focusing on others instead of yourself is supposed to be a good mood booster. So, here's the plan: I have this fabric sitting in my stash:
I am going to turn it into a little girl's skirt using
Dana's simple skirt tutorial. If you would like said skirt for your daughter/niece/friend/little-girl-with-whom-you-would-
like-to-be-friends, leave a comment and I will pick a winner at random. Actually, Asher probably will. I'm thinking I'll just ask him to choose a number between one and however-many-entrants-there-are. It's still just a big rectangle at this point, so we can make it to fit the winner.
So leave a comment by midnight on Monday, June 3 and I'll get to work. Comments like, "Pick me!" are definitely acceptable, but if your comment should happen to include something funny- a good joke or story, a link to your own chuckle-worthy blog post, etc., it would probably help with the grouchiness. If
you are feeling grouchy and need a laugh, check out
Studio C on BYUtv. Just don't stay up late to watch all of the episodes or you might wake up grouchy tomorrow.

Hey Kristi, I would love to win a cute baby skirt. Avalon wears here apple outfit all the time. Sometimes when I am feeling grouchy I will visit my this blog: http://funnycleanvideos.worpress.com
it was a blog y hubby put together for a school project years ago. look up the black and gus video.
Ugh. Just left a long comment which got eaten by cyberspace.... First world problem, I know.
I have a darling 4-year-old daughter who is newly overshadowed by a newborn baby brother. She insists on calling the baby "Jack" (not his name, but it is a bit better than "Captain Hook"...her first choice) and loves counting his little toes. She is a dressup kid with a non-sewing mom, so perhaps we'll be lucky?

I have a very cute granddaughter who would look adorable in a skirt made from that fabric!
About a week before my grandfather died, my grandmother rubbed lard all over his back. He went downhill really fast after that!
Knock knock
Who's there?
