A Whole Ton of Pictures

I hope you're ready for this, I have a ton of stuff today. I'm sure you're thinking "Well, good! It's about time slacker..." So let's begin!

Firstly, more bragging!

Those of you that know the Drama of the Insert know that we supposedly had to get tile up before they could put it in. So Friday night we went and picked out something we liked. Monday night my crazy talented husband put it all up and it looks GORGEOUS. This picture does not do it justice. It's incredible and I'm so proud of him.

Secondly, I finished this:

Isn't it cute? I made this for Mom (Mom = Ben's mom, Mum = my mom - just for future reference. I am so blessed to have a mother in law that I can call my mom.) and gave it to her yesterday. I'm so happy she liked it. She is always posting pictures of pumpkins on her blog and I wanted to make her one. I will be posting a separate post on how I came up with it later.

Thirdly, I received this yesterday:

 

I asked Mom to make me a tea towel apron and she did! I love it. I've been using my cooking aprons but they were just too big to wear all day. I'm using it to carry my cell phone, my little scissors and Chibi (tapestry needled with a bent tip) and the small bit of yarn and needles I'm using right now for making leaves. It's perfect for carrying it all. She sent me the link for the pattern and I might just make a few in different colors for whatever mood I'm in! Haha!

Finally, I've been working on that scarf I was talking about earlier:

I'll go over the exact details later when it's completely finished. Those leaves I'm making will be going on it for some extra embellishment.

It's Thursday and that means my brother is coming over today. I am hoping to start cutting out fabric for the boys' Halloween costumes today while he is here. Since it's a week away. My fabric is washed and dried so now I just have to lay it out, cut it up and get to sewing. Shouldn't take me long once I finally buckle down and do it. Only problem is... I would rather knit!
