It's Update Time!

Yeah, it's been awhile since I updated. Things have been pretty crazy over here, what with Dylan's new job and all that fun stuff.

The other day, my mom taught me how to do French Knots (again!) and so know I feel comfortable enough in finishing my baby record. So, hopefully you'll see the completely finished project soon.

Speaking of baby records, one of my cousins is expecting, so I decided to whip up another baby record. I got this one all done, again save for the name, weight, and date. They actually know what the gender of the baby is going to be, so that makes it much easier. Just waiting for her to be born so I can put down the weight and all that other fun stuff.

It's a girl!


My super secret project has been put on hold because *insert trumpets here* I've been working on a project started over at Sprite Stitch. Pretty much, a few people started talking about the horrible tradgedy in Japan and how we wished we could do something to help. We got around to talking about how many of the video games which we love come from Japan, and that led to Pokémon.

So! We are now currently working on a Generation 1 Pokémon quilt. Each one of us are doing several squares, each with an evolution of a Pokémon in the square (save for a few exceptions). I'm almost done with my first square (Jinx and Mr. Mime) and here it is:


When we're all done with all the squares, we're going to sew them into a quilt and sell the quilt on ebay. All proceeds will go to the Japanese Red Cross. If you would like to find out more, please check us out. After this square, I think I've signed up for 3 more squares, so these are goig to keep me busy for quite some time, but it's all for a good cause. :)
