Friday the 13th and Scrappy's
Happy Friday the 13th ya'll
I was so honored that tara from Up the Street Scrapbooking asked me to be a guest designer for the month of August. She is soo super sweet and hilarious. Her personality and sense of humor is alot like mine so we "get" each other. This month I got the Main Kit "Snowcones" and the project Kit "Travel Journal". I have had so much fun playing with it. After several months of a scrappy break it felt good to jump back in and get my feet wet again.
I did a project also with this kit but unfortunatly I can't show it. SYC was asked by ScrapStreet ezine to be featured in the October issue so I submitted that for the article.
Speaking of SYC get ya booty over there and play along with us this month. It's all about the tape.
Be back soon

On a Happy Note...
Mason's Mario Quilt is Finished and so is my brother's....well the top of it...i haven't wuilted either of them yet but the hard part is done so in my mind it is finished...LOL
As soon as i get a chance to hang this massive thing up (mason's) i will get photos.
I will have to hang it up outside and then take the picture from my upstairs in order to get the whole quilt in one shot.
My brothers Mario quilt is just a lap quilt so i can get it in one shot...
stay tuned

Deep sigh!
At some point you break... that is the point i am at now.
O'Neils grandmother living with us for the last 3 years is ABSO FREAKING LUTELY making me so miserable that i cannot stand to even go home. This woman is a complete card I tell ya and that is being nice.
I'm drained...I'm tired...I'm broken and most of all I AM DONE!
It's hard for me to talk to O'Neil about it because after all it is his grandmother but the strain on us is killing us....he knows it... he just deals with it better than i do by working late and yadda yadda....i don't have that luxury of doing what i want like that. That really pisses me off and makes me very bitter towards him.
he doesn't have to listen to a quarter of the shit i do day in and day out from that broad.....respect your elders is totally out the window when it comes to her.
again I AM DONE! She has to go.... or I just might have to...it's to that point...
I've tried and tried to hold it together but slowly I am losing it. And it will get ugly.

I must be getting old
I think it is probably appropriate to say when you start looking forward to the 3rd saturday in the month to get your quilt on with a bunch of old ladies that mean you are getting old...{deep sigh}
I will be finishing the top of Mason's Mario quilt tomorrow and starting a smaller version of one for m y brother's wedding gift. His is just going to have Mario on it but not in the jumping position. His wedding is 10/10/10 (yeah he's silly like that) and so I have to have it completed by then. No sweat I can do it.
In other news my dear sweet girl Tara ask if I would guest design for her kit club Up the Street for the month of August and of course I said yes. So i will be breaking out the scrappy stuff soon and do some things for her. I am looking forward to playing with some paper. i haven't created anything scrappy since the middle of May. Stay tuned.
Hope everyone has a great weekend... I will....with a bunch of old ladies :)

this is what has been consuming all my time
June 7th i started on a Super Mario Quilt for Mason. This year his Christmas will be Mario themed....well last year too but this year a bit different.
This kid LIVES AND BREATHES all things Mario. So i tackled this.
Now grant you this is my very first EVER quilt so me being the insane person I am, I jump in head first and decided I'll make a full size.. OY! I'm chuggin along the top is almost done but this is pics I have so far.
**pics taken from phone**
the only character i have left to get sewed on is koopa and the top is done minus the brick border at the bottom and then the solid border on the sides.
Full pics of the whole top coming soon.
His Christmas present from us is his room transformed into a scene out of the game.
My pal Elizabeth turned me on to this amazing site that sells these amazing mario re-stiks. Of course if it were me i would totally go old school. But it's Mason and he doesn't know about old school Mario. I'm going to have him fixed up! I can't wait to see it all come together. Alot of blood, sweat and tears is going into this but i know he will TOTALLY appreciate it.
That's all I have for now..
