Purchased glasses online

I heard about a site where you can purchase your glasses online.  After doing some research I made my purchase this past weekend.  The site's name is www.zennioptical.com.  The great thing about it is that you can upload a photo of yourself and try the glasses on to see how they will look on you.  The prices are extremely reasonable compared to the store chains. It takes two weeks depending on your prescription to get to you. Shipping is one flat fee of $4.95!

I can't wait til they get here!

Here is what I bought:

More Posts to come

I have busy and lazy, mostly lazy.  With all the holidays, vacation days, inclement weather, who wants to post pictures... well it wasn't me.  Over my vacation break I made two jackets and one dress for New Years.

I'll give you a preview of what's to come since I don't have any pictures of them to post right now.

I also will have an update on the bags and pillows that I made as Christmas gifts.

Just slow poking around...

I have a lot of things to post and review. I really hope that I can get that done this weekend.  I don't even have an excuse because I have at home for two days this week so it's not like I've been busy.

I can however give a teaser of the things that I've made just to keep your attention for a moment:

 

I have moved, my blog that is....

I've moved to http://designingcreations.wordpress.com. With the intentions to have more posts in there future!

Class Project

We had two projects that were due in class. One was the tote bag and the other was a skirt. For class we could choose a straight skirt or an A-line skirt, as long as they both had front and back darts and a seam for the center back. For my pattern I chose Simplicity 4401.

I have to say that I learned a lot of things in this class. A few NEW ways of doing things differently never hurt anyone in my opinion. My instructor was an absolute dream to work with.

I have to apologize in advance because my pics are not great. The sun was bright and I was using an amateur photographer for the day. Maybe I'll do more photo tweaking later.

I am wearing with the skirt the cardigan that I made last year Simplicity 2603.
I removed the sleeves because something happened to them in the wash and the color wouldn't come out! So I turned into a vest and wore it a long sleeve T-shirt that day. You almost didn't notice that they were two separate pieces.

I will take better pics of the skirt another day.
