Even more procrastinating with starting new project

On By Laura PetersLeave a comment

Ok woke up early didn’t want to wake up my child as early so I made Christmas ornaments. I painted them yesterday but today I decorated them. I used embossing powder and tired using blow dryer to melt but didn’t work so had to put in oven. Which really sucks it was only reason I bought a blow dryer. So that’s lame. Also added some glitter and they came out adorable.

After that I decided to make blueberry jam and it came out so good. I did cut out padding for the placemats I need to start so there’s that. Yet at same time I decided I needed to make four sets of four so 16 placemats before Christmas.

Jam cooking

Then I decided to make quesdillas from scratch including the flour tortillas and the jalapeno sauce. But they came out delicous also. My daughter loved them of course my significant other was like there ok. But ignore him the mans idea of good food is peanut butter and jelly or cereal for dinner. Yeah like seriously and he’s 33 I don’t understand it either eats like five year old.

Tomorrow hoping to make at least one placemat mostly to get idea of what I want it to look like. So wish me luck.

Made some bags today

I made some bags today one was a test bag and the other was for someone. I’m very disappointed in them everyone else I asked said that there fine. There just so limp and disappointing. I made the mistake to buy a bold of interfacing I never used hoping I would be able to use for bags. But it just doesn’t work in my opinion. It’s such a disappointment.

Cause I’m a dork and was a test

I know I expect alot from myself but I really don’t like that they gave like no structure. Just so flimsy and disappointing. I made one before for my sister didn’t like and I tried stiffining it up with thin interfacing to make then a tad stiffer. It seemed to work until I finished making them just dissapointing. I make the dork bag to test the embroidery frame I just got I purposely used fabric I didn’t like and wrote dork so if it came out horrible I wouldn’t care that much. My daughter wants it doesn’t know it says dork but it’s whatever. Just got seven more bags to go.
