The Tide Came In.


Have you ever really watched the tide come in? It's kinda neat. You can actually see it rolling in.
I took a little (we had no plans)road trip last week and ended up in South Maitland just at the right time to watch the magic.









It was only a matter of minutes and the sand disappeared.
I can't believe I've never done this before.
You can even go Tidal Bore rafting. That'll be another post.
If you haven't been to the Bay Of Fundy to check this out, you don't know what you're missing.

CD/DVD Cases - NEW PRODUCT

So, I have a new product. I didn't plan on it, it just happened.






You may recall me mentioning my favorite photographer/friend/the reason I started sewing again; Patricia Sampson AKA Patty-cakes. Well she NEEDED something fun to put her cds in when she presents them to her clients. Apparently they is nothing suitable for a reasonable price. This is where I come in.
Jen..... do you think you could make something. The girl knows I'd do anything to help her out.

So here we are: CD/DVD cases, $8.00 each, min order 10.
They are made from 100% cotton with a fusible interfacing on the inside to make them stiffer.
There will be other colors available and I will do custom orders.
I'm not set up to take orders on line right now so just drop me a line at pipandpipper@gmail.com and I'll do what I can to help. If you have any questions don't hesitate to ask! Jennifer

Neck Lush


"A Necklush™ is designed to keep you warm while looking cool, and keep you looking cool all year long"

I always like to be warm, and if that means looking cool at the same time, I'm in.
It's important to look cool, isn't it?
Who cares, this thing looks so cozy I have to have one. I know it isn't a local artist, hell they aren't even from Canada (Brooklyn,NY) I can't help myself. I haven't figured out how to make one for myself so I'm ordering one today.
They start at $40, that's not a bad price for coolness, I mean warmth.













The grey one is my fave.

















or maybe this one.

You can order your own right here. the original Neck Lush on Etsy. "Your place to buy and sell all things Handmade"

Awkward photos? you know you have one!

Check out this site.  It's new and already has more hits than I'll get in my lifetime.  I had a few good belly laughs this morning and thought you might need one too.  It'll make you think twice next time you smile for the camera!
Who? (are these people)  What? (were they thinking?)  When? (did it become OK to dress up like Pooh?)  Where? (In the world are these people from?)   WHY? (why? why? why?)e
