Serger time!

This morning I finally ordered a serger! I will be honest I'm a little nervous because the look sooo complicated but I'm excited about the new possibilities that it will make possible as well. I ordered a Brother 1034 ( I love brother!) http://www.amazon.com/Brother-1034D-Lay-In-Thread-Serger/dp/B0000CBK1L It was a great deal as well,,,, I keep telling myself that ha. I plan on making jersey knit skirts as my first serger project.

PRAYER WORKS!!!!

EEEEKKKKK, I am soo excited!! I had been very discouraged with my Whigrose shop, I know I have great quality needlework and put ALOT of time and effort into each and every piece whether it be a headband, brooch, or a bigger item like a quilt but the prob is getting it out there and recognized so yesterday while I was having a mini pity party it crossed my mind , "Have u really prayed for WhigRose?" and the answer was no not really, not specifically and earnestly. So right there I took a few minutes and Thanked God for all he's done and asked his blessings on WhigRose or if its not the route for me let me have a peace in that as well. Later that day a friend stopped by and was exclaiming over my WIP'S ----- Works In Progress! She saw one quilt she really loved and offered to buy it when I was through and also she would like another one for her Mother in law... all within one day I now have 2 quilts to make and she also put in for a headband order. Ain't God good???? Any good gift comes from above.

WhigRose

I am thrilled to announce I have a team member for my Etsy shop WhigRose http://www.etsy.com/shop/WhigRose --- Amy!!
I met Amy at the dr's  while getting my son's pink eye looked at. We both discovered we had the same birthday and we lived literally blocks from one another and our hubby's are both in military, How cool is that!! Amy is such a blessing to WhigRose because she makes little girls clothes!!! Yay!! and plus I have tons of FUN adding the embellishments. We will also be trying our hand at local craft and art fairs locally. I pray God's blessing on our endeavors because without him we can do nothing.

Back from Va

I had such a wonderful time visiting my parents in VA a couple weeks ago.  The drive is always way loong! But so worth it to be with my momma. VA is always so beautiful and it feels like home when I see those green rolling hills and mountains. My mom's house is so gorgeous and she has decorated so tasteful in french country style. Lots of white and antique furniture and decor. One of my highlights of the trip was getting my brother's ipad 2 :) I am having tons of fun with it an so is my son and husband! We love to play angry birds ( who doesn't) and Price is right.. who knew a 5 year old would love price is right! so funny.

It was nice getting away while in VA and clearing my head and focusing on my family. I believe I left refreshed and with a greater determination to live life to the fullest without distraction and drama from other people that would be a hindrance. I can't wait till I visit again in the beautiful Appalachians!!
