The Part-Timer: November and December: Busy Knitting!
http://parttimer.blogspot.com/2007/12/november-and-december-busy-knitting.html
Keeping track of the 20 hours a week I'm not at work. Wednesday, December 26, 2007. November and December: Busy Knitting! I was so busy knitting I didn't even think about updating the blog with progress! This Christmas I had a goal to give everyone handmade gifts. I started knitting in November, and finished everything in time! So, on with the projects. I started off November knitting at Blackberry Farm. It was a relaxing and beautiful start to the season. I made the Anthropology Inspired Capelet. 365 Da...

The Part-Timer: Inspiration
http://parttimer.blogspot.com/2009/03/inspiration.html
Keeping track of the 20 hours a week I'm not at work. Tuesday, March 03, 2009. It's been a while since I've blogged, so I thought a good start would be to show you something I put together that is inspired by Nikol. She posted a while ago about Lou. Who recycles plastic bags into awesome, fun stuff. Not having any tinker toys, or wanting to spend any money, I started looking around my house to see what I could find to make my own dryer. This is what I came up with:. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

The Part-Timer: New Year Organization
http://parttimer.blogspot.com/2008/01/new-year-organization.html
Keeping track of the 20 hours a week I'm not at work. Tuesday, January 08, 2008. It's the new year, and I've been thinking about the Uberlist. I'm mostly done, and a lot of it involves organizing the supplies for various crafts. This is a recurring theme in my lists, which is so perplexing. Susie is checking out my stash of the plastic zipper bags that bedding is packaged in. I was using them to containerize sewing stuff. In the background is a plastic box with more stuff. 365 Days In Our Life. This is a...

The Part-Timer: November Sewing
http://parttimer.blogspot.com/2008/01/november-sewing.html
Keeping track of the 20 hours a week I'm not at work. Friday, January 18, 2008. I made this dress for the Sew Retro. October - January challenge. This did not start as my 'No More Buts' project. I have a vintage muumuu pattern (the kind with a draped/train back) that I don't have quite enough fabric for and will have to redraft the pattern for using a different fabric in the pleat that I wanted to be my project. But I digress. So there was some cunning layout work to do. After getting everything cut out,...

The Part-Timer: March already!!
http://parttimer.blogspot.com/2008/03/march-already.html
Keeping track of the 20 hours a week I'm not at work. Monday, March 03, 2008. The daffodils in my yard are blooming. Spring is on the way and I've barely posted all winter! I was pretty busy sewing costumes all January. We went to New Orleans for Mardi Gras, which was fabulous as always! Our Krewe's theme this year was Woo - Hoo Goes to the Circus. Our costumes were poodles and trainer - I think we turned out pretty cute! Here we are in our best formation:. Check out the tails:. Check out my set on Flickr.

The Part-Timer: Big Honkin Update
http://parttimer.blogspot.com/2008/05/big-honkin-update.html
Keeping track of the 20 hours a week I'm not at work. Tuesday, May 20, 2008. 40 on my Uberlist is to update this blog monthly. Umm, I'll have to do better for the rest of the year! Somehow I missed April, so what was I doing? Why so busy that I missed a blog entry? I grabbed the rest of this fiber. I'm fairly happy with it, but it's a bit on the bright side. It might do well as an accent on solid color sweater. 230 yards, 6 ounces, wool. Coils, Beehives and Boucle. It turned out so awesome, I'm in love!

The Part-Timer: Spring is Here!
http://parttimer.blogspot.com/2008/03/spring-is-here.html
Keeping track of the 20 hours a week I'm not at work. Thursday, March 27, 2008. I live in the South, and winter is never very harsh, but I still get so excited when it's finally spring. I love all the flowers and blooming trees (not so much the allergies that accompany the blooming! The warm breezes, the quality of light that is softer, more yellow. You can't tell from the picture, but these flowers are tiny - only an inch and a half across. Their scent, however, is huge! At some point I'll also be addin...
