I've been slacking!!!!

I know I've been slacking in the bloggidy department.

We finally had a stretch of nice weather, my fiance Big Mac came home from the Wild West and I've got a really Big project (and of course a bunch of little ones) on the go.

Not much time for sewing or blogging with all this sun. (yes I'm in Nova Scotia and Yes, it is raining today)

I'll try to be a better host and post more often. I've got some fun pics to share this week.

I hope you are all having as great a summer as I am.

check back soon. Jen

Did I mention that I got a Shout Out from fellow Halifax bloggers?;

Fashionable People, Questionable Things

It's not a huge shout out, but they did mention my watches. check it here. It's right after the 5th pic.

I know it's silly of me, but it's so cool at the same time.

Actually this blog is kind of fun, it's become one of my daily reads. There's a little bit of everything in there; What to wear, what not to wear and what's supposed to be cool at the moment.

Thank goodness someone is following the trends, I certainly don't. enjoy!!!

Where is the summer going?

I've been a busy bee so far this summer.

As you can see my grass is growing.

Before

After: I know it's not the prettiest, give me time.

I've made more watches. Brighter colors!

Here we are outside the Paul McCartney concert. We thought we'd just do a drive by, but ended up sitting double parked just off Robie st. for the whole show. Amazing!!!! $135 for what?

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

Rainy Weekend?

It may not look like it right now, but it's supposed to rain for the next 3 days. We are on the coast however, so you never really know what's going to happen.

With that in mind, I am preparing for "being stuck in the house"

I hate being stuck in the house!

It'll be a weekend of cleaning, organizing and sewing!

I have a few projects I've been meaning to try; it's my rainy day venture list.

I'll post a few now and save some for the next anticipated rainy day.

Make something creative this weekend and have fun.
