Announcing my new craft adventure!

I am finally organized enough to let you know what I have been up to. I have been setting up my new quilt shop on Etsy! Have you heard of Etsy yet? It is a really cool place to shop because it is all handmade stuff!

Anyway, I got this crazy idea that I should open my own shop! I know, like I didn't already have enough to do. But the interesting thing is that the kids are helping me. They are picking out colors, naming shapes, counting pieces, and Carlee stood beside me for nearly an hour the other day being my pin helper, she was in charge of the pin cushion!

I love quilting and I have decided that it is a great motivator to do something for myself. An excuse to actually make the time to sit down and quilt. I finished my first quilt for the shop and have already listed it, just click on it over on the right sidebar and you will be taken to my Etsy shop.

I have lots of quilts planned and even some other cross-stitch, knitting, and crocheting projects planned too. To keep things all nice and organized I started a new blog just for my Etsy shop stuff. The link for that is also over on the right sidebar. So now I am all over the place! Make sure you leave a comment to let me know when you visit any of my blogs and also let me know what you think!

Your quilt is beautiful. Can't wait to see all your other projects.

Enjoy your new adventure :)

This begs the question, "Were you insane before you had 3 small children" or "Did you become insane after having 3 small children"? Can't wait to see what neat things you create!

LOL it is just a whole new level of insanity! I have always been somewhat crazy - my motto in high school was 'Why be normal!' Haha I guess I still live by that...
