Encyclopedia of Me - J & a little bit of sewing

J is for…

… June - The month I was born. I love birthdays and love that I have a summer birthday!

… Juice - When we were little my mom would mix our juice with a bit of water. It is healthier plus it makes it so little ones will drink more water (I think the doctor might have suggested it…) I still mix my juice half with water, and can’t stand the taste of juice by itself. It is just way too sweet usually. (Oh and my sister mixes it too still!)

Oh and I actually did a bit of sewing today! At about 3pm this afternoon I has a little burst of inspiration for a fabric scarf and absolutely had to sit down and try to make it… You know how sometimes a project turns out completely different than you imagine it… The last project I attempted that happened. Well this project actually turned out exactly the way I imagined it, and that is always an amazing feeling. To be able to think of a design in your head and actually be able to sit and make that design with fabric is very satisfying! That is why I love sewing! :)

I thought about keeping this scarf for myself, but decided to add it to my etsy shop. You can bet I will be making more like this one though. I definitely need at least 1 or 2 for myself (and maybe a few more in my shop).

This photo is for Karyn (who told me to get a picture of the labels I ordered)…

I love being able to add my name to the items I make! :)

Cute scarf. And cute label. I think I’m going to need labels too. They make things look so finished.

very nice scarf. I love it when things turn out exactly the way I have it planned out in my head. I can’t tell you how much that actually happens, though, for me anyway. :)
