Brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

It's soooo cold here today... I am freezing! I;m so tired today not feeling well! I HAVE to get into the sewing room tonight to work on Billie Jean's semi-formal dress I'm making for her to wear to her Winter Dance! I haven't been down there since the weekend. I'm getting SOOOOOOOOOO frustrated with this dress! UGH! LOL! I just want it done! Then I can work on a new dress out of some cutesy rainbow flannel fabric I got to make Renee a dress!

I made stuff again! LOL!

I've been trying so hard to get back into my sewing room to get some things done recently!!
Finally here are the pictures of items in the previous post!

The first skirt in red is Renee's skirt! This is one solid piece of material that I added a waist band and hemmed the bottom! :-)


The blue skirt is made exactly the same only this one is for Callie! Miss Renee's best friend!



Next we have a lunch bag that I made from this tutorial/pattern! I really love All People Quilt!

WOW! What a busy week! I haven't had time to do anything! LOL! I worked 12 hour days on Wednesday and Friday of last week! Right around Thanksgiving!! Thank You! LOL! UGH! We moved our corporate offices to a new building! Being the IT department we had to be sure that all computers were up and running and the servers working fine before we left for the day!
What really bites is even though I asked and was tole these extra 8 hours I worked would be paid as overtime they weren't! Because of the holiday that week! ARGH! You would need to "work" 40 hours without the holiday in there inorder for anymore hours to be considered OT! So why didn't they say this before I agreed to all these dang hours!!! Really peeves me!


Oh well! life goes on I suppose!

I should be thankful I have a good job in IT and not be too worried in these economic times! :-)

I did some sewing over the weekend! Made three circle skirts out of some Christmas fabric. I made one for my daughter Renee 7 and one for her friend Callie also 7 and one for Callie's little sister Maddie! 18 months! :-) I have pictures at home on the camera still!
I will get them posted soon! Hopefully tonight after I take the girls bowling! Our local bowling alley does 99 cent bowling on Tuesday nights... Including shoe rental for 99 cent too!

I'm going to try to get back in here in post at least daily!
