Global Odyssey: Knit-Knot
http://globalodyssey.blogspot.com/2015/04/knit-knot.html
Handmade by Auntie Meig. In August of 2014 a new yarn shop opened near me! She does this really cool thing on the first Friday of the month and keeps the store open until 10pm and we can all snack and knit and have a nice time in our community - here I am working on my Downton Abbey shawl in March. I have been knitting a lot lately and nabbed two things off my to-do list recently. I'm in an Outlander themed swap and a Game of Thrones themed swap. I made cowls for both my partners. How cool is that? Anywa...

Global Odyssey: Ohio Star Quilt
http://globalodyssey.blogspot.com/2015/06/ohio-star-quilt.html
Handmade by Auntie Meig. Slowly but surely I will eventually get all these updates in. Here's one of my finishes from early in the year. This is the biggest quilt I've ever made. I loved every minute of it! I was asked to do a quilt with burgundy, hunter green, and cream (those are their bedroom colors) and they wanted queen size to fit the bed. Woo! Shoving a queen sized quilt through my little domestic machine to quilt was a real treat! I got working on math and figured it out and this is the result:.

Handmade by Auntie Meig. Shorts and a sneak peek! Brandi and I are doing the Shorts on the Line sew along over at imagine gnats. I set out sewing a pair of knit shorts for the twins that I babysit but when I got done drafting my pattern (using an existing pair of shorts), cutting, sewing, and admiring, I realized that they were big enough to fit JJ. Oops! They're made from a t-shirt that I wore to work in Mexico. We're also doing a swap over at Pink Stitches. I hope you've all had a wonderful weekend!

Global Odyssey: Can you hear the buzzing?
http://globalodyssey.blogspot.com/2015/04/can-you-hear-buzzing.html
Handmade by Auntie Meig. Can you hear the buzzing? Neo snuggling on the chair while I work away in my studio. He's the best companion! I've been working a lot lately, especially on things at home. Knitting and cross stitch have been my main time consumers, but I have a lot of sewing that needs to get done. I thought I would update you all on what's been happening around here in an effort to be better about blogging my progress. Clockwise from top left:. 4 The present from Heidi has mostly been used alrea...

Global Odyssey: Easter 2015
http://globalodyssey.blogspot.com/2015/04/easter-2015.html
Handmade by Auntie Meig. I'm really terrible at coming up with clever titles. I should work on that. Anyway, I participated in an Easter swap that was hosted by the same person as the Bitches Get Stitches one. You could pick salty or sweet, or middle. I picked middle because while I don't mind how I talk, I don't usually flaunt my poor language about. I ended up having Brandi as my swap mama (weird) and then getting Heidi from my birthday club as my partner! I used the Cerisy Skirt Tutorial. All content ...

Global Odyssey: 02.12
http://globalodyssey.blogspot.com/2012_02_01_archive.html
Handmade by Auntie Meig. Day 24: Inside your bathroom cabinet. For the week I was in Mexico, this was my bathroom cabinet. :). Day 25: green. The inside of my purse and my calendar are green. Day 26: night. This is how we sleep, especially if I've been away for a while. Day 27: something you ate. I suppose I drank this, but it was the best thing I could come up with. It was actually pretty good! Day 29: something you're listening to. I LOVE this song. I can't get enough of it! 18: drink (wine from dinner).

Handmade by Auntie Meig. It's been well over a year since I posted here. 2014 was just insanity! So many things happened and I just never got on here to talk about them. So, here goes. View of Cumbres neighborhood of Tijuana from our second worksite. House near our first build site - loved all the flora and fauna! We had such a great time. And, as it turns out, her daughter's birthday is the same day as mine so we got to celebrate together. :). We love checking out the beach at Rosarito. We also took a t...
