Time Out Mat

After a wonderful first week back at school I am enjoying my weekend and planning a few sewing projects. My first one is going to be a Time Out mat for my two year old - she is a lovely child but lets face it, she is two. I am hoping to cut the letters out using my new Cricut Expressions machine.

Wish me luck!

Back to School

This last week I have been completely overwhelmed with planning for the new school year. This week teachers came back to get classrooms in order and to do some planning. Last year I taught middle school math 1/2 time which was lovely because I was able to pick up my little one before lunch and enjoy the afternoon at home with her. This year I will be teaching a 5th grade/6th grade blend and it will be full time.

I don't think I even glanced at my sewing machine this week. I am hoping after a couple of weeks I will be adjusted to my new schedule and will be able to fit in some sewing here and there.

Other news - I am anxiously awaiting two shipments of fantastic fabric! I'll post a link when it arrives.

Hope everyone has a nice weekend!
