Red is for Passion: July 2012
http://redisforpassion-red.blogspot.com/2012_07_01_archive.html
Red is for Passion. Friday, July 13, 2012. The heroines I'm reading. I recently finished “The Snow Queen” by Joan Vinge, who lives in Madison, WI (I used to live there! It is interesting to note that Vinge wrote The Snow Queen in 1980. What’s also fun is that this book was written in the 1980s as well, so they have to use the library and books to figure things out, not the Internet and GPS. Reading about the old tech is fun too. I like Nora Roberts because her stories make sense with and without the roma...

Red is for Passion: Baby's first birthday
http://redisforpassion-red.blogspot.com/2013/04/babys-first-birthday.html
Red is for Passion. Wednesday, April 24, 2013. She turned 1 year old last week. We took her to Taiwan to meet my parents, who are thrilled to finally see, hold, and touch their first and only grandchild. Here we are at a baseball game and she fell asleep. My mom's holding her while my dad's holding her hand. My father's calling her gim swn, which means golden grandchild in Taiwanese. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Atlanta Fulton Public Library.

http://redisforpassion-red.blogspot.com/2012_06_01_archive.html
Red is for Passion. Monday, June 11, 2012. We've been using a pack of plain white cloth diapers as burp cloths / light shade blankets. However, I looked a Veronica clutching this and thought: My child needs more color! So I bought some Rit dye and this is the result. Much better. The colors in the picture below are not quite accurate. The orange is really a brighter mango color. I really want to dye more things now. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Atlanta Fulton Public Library.

Red is for Passion. Wednesday, August 14, 2013. Got a new phone, the iPhone 5 and now I'm having trouble uploading pictures from the phone to the blog.

Red is for Passion: February 2013
http://redisforpassion-red.blogspot.com/2013_02_01_archive.html
Red is for Passion. Saturday, February 23, 2013. What to do without a thumb? Well, I do still have both thumbs. It's just that my lifetime of knitting (well, 20 years) has given me thumb and wrist problems on my left hand. So I've learned how to knit without using my left thumb and it's slooooow going. I am so close to finishing Husband's City Lights blanket and that's what I'll focus on for, um, I guess this year. Thursday, February 21, 2013. Sunday, February 10, 2013. I Made a Dress! This is the Crepe ...

Red is for Passion: January 2013
http://redisforpassion-red.blogspot.com/2013_01_01_archive.html
Red is for Passion. Thursday, January 31, 2013. Thanks to The Mary Sue blog. I learned about Crash Course! A series on YouTube that teaches about world history, literature, and science. ETA: today, they started a course about US history. Anyway. Each video is about 10 minutes, which is about how long it takes my baby to drink a 4 oz bottle. Wednesday, January 30, 2013. Once Upon a Time, Grimm, Lost Girl and October Daye. What do these things have in common? Then contrast OUAT with Grimm. Again, I lik...

Red is for Passion: Been sewing
http://redisforpassion-red.blogspot.com/2013/03/been-sewing.html
Red is for Passion. Tuesday, March 19, 2013. Tunic O from Stylish Dress Book. Skirt: New Look 6873. A-Line Skirt from Stitch by Stitch. Book by Deborah Moebes. Dress A from Stylish Dress Book. My sewing nook in the corner of my bedroom. I'm currently watching the Sewing with Knits class and am looking forward to making the Surplice Dress from it. I really like Tunic O from Stylish Dress Book, but the sleeves are constricting. I want to remake the tunic in a knit for more flexibility. Youve been very busy!

Red is for Passion: October 2013
http://redisforpassion-red.blogspot.com/2013_10_01_archive.html
Red is for Passion. Thursday, October 17, 2013. Wow, it's been a while. So much has happened since my last post. Here are the highlights:. 1) Went to visit Baby's birthparents. All went well. It was like a visit with friends. Baby was 15 months or so and her birth brother was about 2 and a half years old. Baby's birthparents had asked us to adopt from them again and we said Yes! 2) we are preparing an application to an adoption agency. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Wow, its been a while.

Red is for Passion: July 2013
http://redisforpassion-red.blogspot.com/2013_07_01_archive.html
Red is for Passion. Monday, July 29, 2013. Back from Vacation and Growing Up. Last week we went to Husband's family reunion on the shores of Lake Ontario on the US side. It was Baby's first time there. She enjoyed the fresh air, walking around on grass, crawling and walking up and down and up and down the ramp. She got along with all the relatives and they were all attentive and impressed by how well-behaved she was. Other than at shower time, nor at restaurants. We're going to have to fix that. Big Sist...

Red is for Passion. Monday, June 17, 2013. I've been on a clothes sewing kick. But I can only sew, and more importantly cut out pattern pieces, when the baby is napping. But this is what I've made since I last posted 6 weeks ago:. This is the Picnic Blanket Skirt from Tilly and the Buttons. The fabric is orange and white seersucker and pearly white plastic buttons. Per the instructions, there's an inch of ease, but I didn't like it. Eventually I pinched in the sides. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). 8 (5 mm) ...
