Oh boy, I have branched out to sewing for other people! Well baby steps, anyways. I made another Ashton Top for my sis' bday present, this time with butterfly sleeves. The top is so flattering and it sews up nice and quick!
Little cross stitch designs
I think the best thing about cross stitching is that you can make small designs that stitch up very quick. I like a nice, quick project. I made a little basket for the front of a birthday card. And I'm making three small plant designs that I will hang up in my bathroom.
Birthday Family Time
We had some family time this weekend, celebrating my sis Tine's birthday. We caught an Earl's happy hour and had a big seafood platter - but Tine couldn't have any, she's allergic! Back to her place to celebrate with gifts and TWO cakes.
Anniversary
I celebrated an anniversary today: one year in my new position at UBC. Time has really flown by! To celebrate, we went out to have Ernest's Ice Cream on the weekend. Even better, our friend Jen was working and she gave us a great deal: FREE! Happy days, indeed.
Cake on pie day
I forgot to post about Pi Day on March 14! We went out for a bite but got carrot cake instead of pie. Still good! And somehow carrot cake reminds me of St. Paddy's day - it should be green 🙂
