A Note From Suzy

My mom is a bad Mom. I’ve been watching her park the car and open the front door, and it’s taken at least three minutes. Doesn’t she know there’s a starving cat inside, waiting to be fed? I mean, really. Where are her priorities? No food. Those fun little mice which smell so good have [...]

WiP Weds ~ Quilted

Quilting is the part where you put one fabric on top and another fabric on bottom, stick batting in the middle, and then sew patterns through all the layers to make a nice soft blanket whose guts don’t move around too much, right? I know I (and most people) tend to think of the piecework [...]

Suzy Explains

Hello world, Suzy here. Mom can’t come to the blog right now. She keeps muttering something about “sleep deprivation” and “quality not quantity” and “stupid animal sitting on my chest and purring at 3am”. I have no idea what she’s going on about.

Random Friday

I have heard it said that 5 things make a blog post. So, here are my five things for today: 1. I love scrapbooking. Lately I’ve been doing the digital version of it, for multiple reasons. Chief among these reasons are that my photos are all digital and this way I don’t have to print [...]

A Note From Suzy

Hi there. Mom can’t come to the blog right now. She’s busy playing with a Mouse. Silly Mom. I’m the one who’s supposed to be playing with mice. Ah well. She promises to have pictures for you when she gets back, and in the meantime I get to smile for the blog. Smile? On command? [...]

Writing Wednesday: In which I am late, and there is a cat picture

Ugh. I hate how little things like headaches are so hard to diagnose. Do you have a headache because you aren’t getting enough sleep? Too much sleep? Not enough food? Not enough water? Because you’re getting sick, or it’s that time of the month (for gals, anyway)? Because you’re wearing – or not wearing – [...]

WiP Weds 8.31.11 ~ The Twisty Edition

As I write this, my boyo is playing “Insanely Twisted Shadow Planet,” and between that and the second of today’s WiPs, this is a very twisty blog post. (Or at least it is to me.) I guess the first thing to show today is the progress I’ve made on the second of the Artichoke socks. [...]

Suzy’s Turn

Good morning, people. For those of you who don’t know me, I am Suzy. And today, you won’t be interested in the blog. Please turn the computers over to your pets – or maybe even your human children – and then walk away. Are they gone? Good. Now. Here’s an important lesson in How To [...]

WiP Weds 5.11.11

WiP Weds For today’s WiP Weds post, I want to do something different. I want to focus on ONE project, rather than everything I have on the needles. Or on the hook, as in the case of today’s project: The Babette Blanket. I really like this blanket. I like the variety it provides: even though [...]

WiP Weds ~ 4.27.11

I have a new WiP to show you today! Look – a new sock! Do any of you know what this means? Yup – it means there’s a finished sock post in the works! Hooray! But in the meantime, new sock! This is the second sock of the Emergency Backup Socks. Sadly, I didn’t get [...]
