Back again...

I disappeared for awhile. Actually, in all honesty I forgot about this blog. I am making it my goal to try to write at least once a week though. Things have changed like crazy in the past few months. I quit school and took a job working full time managing my parents' restaurant. I can't say I absolutely love it but I don't mind it so much. The unfortunate thing about it is I'm left with little time for crafting. However I have two projects in mind so I am going to kick my but into gear and get started. First off, a quilt for my bedroom in my new apartment. My bedroom is currently, white and drab with little furniture and plenty of clothes strewn about. I'm in the process of buying a inexpensive bedroom set and making a quilt to match. Hopefully it turns out well. The second project is a fun, colorful, Jungle themed quilt for my niece's bedroom at her new house. She loves animals (mostly monkeys) and I found some amazing Alexander Henry fabric with lots of jungle animals that matches her new room. I need to get to work on that. I also need to construct a crafting corner in my living room. My first attempt ended badly with my gargantuous bottomed cat jumping on the shelving and causing a massive collision of shelves and monster holes in the walls. Not so good. Lastly is decorating my apartment to my taste. For the dining/living/kitchen area I'm going with a bright, retro feel. I have a few pieces of furniture already and just need to collect some more at local thrift stores. That's all for now. Hopefully more updates soon.
