I love to be creative and this is my special spot to share with you all my adventures. I am a single mom who has a curious mind and an endless imagination. I am the poster child when it comes to ADD and creativity. I am constantly trying new things and learning to refine the skills I do have. I believe in learning something new every day so let's see what we can learn together today...

So many things I wanna try and buy...

I love looking at every ones blogs and gathering ideas and patterns. There is one site that is my favorite and always at the top of my list. They always have great inspiration, not to mention keeping me up to date with the latest materials coming out. I am talking about the amazing Sew, Mama Sew! site. Anyone who has visited that site can attest to the great blog entries there.  Their site is user friendly, and has never failed to give me either a pattern to run with or a new fabric line to add to my list of "Must Have". In this blogosphere (real word? it is in Melaniespeak) it is nice to have a site that is so well run and that gives something away every week. That's right, I said gives something away every week. Come on what more could you want?  Check it out and I think you won't be disappointed. If you have an amazing site that you think will inspire please let me know. There are so many that it is hard to get through the bad sometimes to find the gems.

Welcome Welcome

OMG seriously? I think I might be crazy for jumping into the world of blogging. Don't get me wrong - I love bloggers. I have lists on all the computers in the house of the various bloggers that I love to follow.  They completely fit in with my curiosity of people and learning new things but I never thought I would be jumping into actually doing it myself.  My friends know me as the one always trying something new and constantly reading up on various ideas and projects.  I am always calling them up and saying, "Hey guess what I just read about... wanna give it a try?" Thank God I have wonderful friends who are often willing to indulge me in my love of all things creative - and if I can't wrangle one of them then I turn it on my wonderful daughters and it becomes creative family time.  So, when a few suggested that I throw my proverbial hat into the ring of blogging I decided what the heck and here I am.  I aim to make this blog informative, crafty and down right laugh-out-loud funny with my always present touch of sarcasm. I hope that all of you that join me can learn something, share something and laugh along with me. So, let's begin this adventure...
