Sorry I have been MIA



Hello Everyone,

Sorry I have been MIA. We are in the process of packing up our home and moving into our first new home together. We have waited so long for this day and it is such a wonderful feeling to know that we will be in our forever home. Our family and friends are so excited for us. They all know how much we sacrificed to have our dream come true.

Once we get settled, I will post some pictures of our new home and share what I have been able to work on before packing up my studio. I will also post pictures of my new studio when I have everything in its place.

To help take my mind off my achy body I have been knitting in the evenings. I have been working on E's sweater and my cabled cape. I think its safe to say they will be ready this Fall. LOL

Talk to you all soon!!

Fun Fur Boa Scarf

Hello Everyone,

Happy New Year!!! I hope everyone had a wonderful holiday season with family and friends. We had a very enjoyable, busy, relaxing holiday season and a beautiful white Christmas.


I finished my fun fur boa scarf. I had bought this yarn a couple of years ago with my MIL and just didn't feel ready to knit it. Since I've been taking my knitting classes, I picked up my fluffy skeins and got to work. I just love how soft and fluffy it is.

I am also working on my first sweater for E and I will be busy sewing too.



Hope you all have a wonderful day!!

I am linking up with these parties and TCB.

I want to thank you all for following my little blog, leaving great comments and being my online friends. I hope you will join me for another great year of blogging and all things crafty in 2013. 

I look forward to all the new things I will be sewing this upcoming year. I made my first Halloween costume in 2012 and I will be making E his costume for 2013. I can't wait to show all of you my creations for E, our home, Holly, our family and friends.

Happy Thanksgiving!!

Happy Thanksgiving!! I hope you are all having a wonderful day spending time with family and friends, eating delicious foods and scrumptious desserts. I know we will and we are really looking forward to it. I will be missing my family and friends back in New York and will be wishing that we could be spending today with them. Our thoughts and prayers are with everyone who has faced hardship because of Hurricane Sandy. We are thankful for your strength and courage. Many, many thanks to all the first responders and volunteers. Please keep them in your thoughts and prayers...not only today, but everyday.

I am so thankful for my husband who makes me proud of the man and Army Officer that he is. He loves me unconditionally, romantic, supportive, giving, thoughtful, makes me a better person, always make me laugh and loves our fur baby Holly unconditionally. He always encourages me to excel at all my craft's and this year I sewed my first costume for Halloween and will be knitting my first sweater for him. He has enjoyed his assignment over this past year and we have had a wonderful time up here in Canada. We are thankful for how Canadians have embraced us and we have made some wonderful friends.

I am thankful for my Mom who has taught me so much about being the woman I am today, about life, love and happiness. More importantly, to wait for the right man to come along, how to be a good wife, daughter, sibling and friend. Thank you for being in my life! I am also very thankful to have a wonderful sister. You are a wonderful sister, sister-in-law, friend, wife, mother and fur baby aunt. To our wonderful brother-in-law E, we are thankful for you being part of our family and being a wonderful husband, father and brother. I am thankful for our nephews G and M...both a gift. Thank you for being the sweet, loving boys that you are and always putting smiles on our faces. We love you both very much and miss you dearly.

I also wish all of our troops serving our Country and their families a very Happy Thanksgiving. Thank you for keeping Americans and our country safe. Thank you to the Military families who stand by their side and support what they do. Please keep them in your thoughts every day.

Also, thank you to all my blogging friends out there, old and new, who have been supportive since I started blogging 3 years ago this past October. You have all been so kind with your encouraging and funny comments and I have really enjoyed reading your blogs, learning from and getting to know you.


From my family to yours, Happy Thanksgiving.  May your day be filled with family, friends, food, and fun!
