Class cancelled again.

That's the downside to working at Joann Fabrics. Classes get cancelled due to lack of enrollment. Way too often, it seems, but hey, if every class I have scheduled worked out, I'd be in trouble. I'd never see my hubby. My next open classes is Sunday,Sewing 101, run, sign up! Next Tuesday is the last chance for the Folded Log Cabin block class.

Today was a great day. I spent it at my friends sewing. She's working on a top, and so am I. Mine is "The Big Shirt" from Taylor Made Designs. It is like to boyfriend shirt, that is coming back. It was on the Runway last month. Although, if you know me, it won't be a regular shirt. I am using 4 different batik prints in aquas, and of course purple. Everything but the collar is done. When it's finished, I"ll post a picture. For now here is the cover of the book that the pattern is from. You can get the book from http://www.SewThankful.com/taylormadedesigns.html and no I don't get any money from the company. Shucks. I'm making the short sleeve version.

My next project is going to be the sample for the Giftable Applique. That class starts in November. For January, I need to create samples for the next quilt and the Misses Top.

On a personal note, I'm feeling a bit better. My knees are still killing me, but the all over aches and pains seem to be subsiding. I think it was the medication. I'm back in light treatment for my Psoriasis, it is in a break out again. 3 times a week for now. I really like the new facility. My Dr. switched practices and his new offices are very nice and the Light Treatment room has a much nicer narrow band box. Should prolong the onset of skin cancer.

The girls (Lulu and Bella) are fine. They are enjoying the cooler evenings. Bella would stay out all night if we let her. They are allowed out in our screened on Pool room. Lulu wants in when we go to bed (hubby and I). She likes to curl up or should I stretch out, on his side of the bed at the bottom. In my next life I want to return as one of my cats. They have such a tough life.

Keep On Stitching, Karen
