First I’ll start with a PSA…. Get new mats for your Accuquilt dies!! Why did I wait this long? it makes such a huge difference when cutting, just like getting a new rotary cutting blade!! (which I also changed out when I get new mats!) For school this week, I changed a few things around, …
This week I got a new bookshelf for upstairs (it’s really 3) From IKEA, we thought we’d drive to Charlotte to get them but then when comparing the delivery cost with the gas, meals and taking a day off from work, it just made more sense to get it delivered- plus there’s always impulse buys …
What a busy week, two appointments with my in-laws, a vet visit, church stuff and I think I had ONE day home sewing!! The BIG change that happened this week was that Cousin it- I mean hubby, went to get a haircut! He hadn’t cut his hair since Covid- maybe a few snips, but ever …
I’ve been cutting up these lovely fabrics from Michael Miller Fabrics this week and that’s been my main project, other than that we’ve been very busy!

Going back and forth figuring out what matches the stove and what we like and in shiny chrome! Hubby has been experimenting with sour dough bread lately, my friend at church gave us a bit of …
Another busy week, we started our 4th homeschool year with Sonlight! 2nd and 6th grade! Anja had to copy the words BIG! We got drawer/cabinet pulls for the kitchen! SO NICE!!!

Last weekend we dyed Solveig’s hair (and bleached it) first the bleach then purple it ended up cute but very faint, so we might do it again before she starts college next week. She already started one bridge class that’s online for a week then in few for a week or a few days because …
Hubby has been busy with our kitchen this week and last weekend and made lots of progress! The main thing was installing the kitchen sink, it had to be done quickly, by first removing the counters and the sink (so no water!) Â one man + a sledge hammer + a few hours = empty …
