I'm DROWNING!

In fabric, yarn, and microfiber!

I realized last night that I have a TON of fabric because not only did I have to iron on the floor because my ironing board is full of fabric, but I have a bag of fabric that I haven't even done anything with since I bought it 2 weeks ago. AND.. shhhh don't tell anyone, but I still haven't received what I ordered from another Order I made.

I usually have at least 3 different skeins of yarn on my desk and yes 3 unfinished projects to go with it. I do have 2 finished projects on the desk today. Oh no wait I have like 5 I forgot about my little turtles.

So today I am determined to at least put some of it away if not finish up some of the projects I have going.

Yes I am a Supply-A-Holic... what's your story?

Street Fair Prep

Mama's Little Monkey's, Quibby's Bows and I will be at the Picayune Street Fair.

To prepare for said Street Fair I went to Michale's and Hobby Lobby about 2 weeks ago. I spent just about all my money on yarn. My wonderful best friend had given me $50 gift certificate so I was able to get some scrapbooking supplies for my other habit.

So in all the chaos of getting ready for this... here are some pics to make you smile. This is my "craft" room. It's a corner of my living room. I'm just so thankful that my hubby got me a dishwasher so I can spend more time making stuff. HA HA!

Some finished, some not so finished projects. All my scrapbooking stuff in the back. I really need to buy one of those organizers for that.


I was in the middle of making a hat last night and got too tired to finish.


I cleaned off my sewing table the other day to fill a wipes order and it just got stacked here. Yes that is more yarn.

My yarn drawer is overflowing....



Into this box....



The cleanest place in my craft corner.



I found the last stash of the forest animal print on the Internet that I'm aware of and bought the last 3 yards. If you know anyone who has this print let me know. It's my most popular print for wipes and they've discontinued it. I'm hoping it will be back in the fall. This will all be wipes by the end of the weekend.



Happy Crafting!
Tell anyone you know in the South MS, or LA area to come by the Street Fair and check us out. We will have a TON of cute things.

The First Step....

is admitting you have a problem.

Hello, my name is Amy and I am a supplyaholic. At this very moment I have some GORGEOUS fabrics in my cart at fabric.com. I do not NEED said fabrics. And I am doing my best to leave them there and wait and see! I already have more fabric than I can fit in an armoire plus roughly 15-20 yards coming via mail in time.....I MUST BE STOPPED!

Complicating this matter is I haven't had TIME to sew lately! Soaping has kept me a little busy since the fabulous New Orleans Saints are going to the Superbowl and I just so happen to make Saint's soaps! Then of course there are the children, housewifery duties and ridding the world of all evil...

Then there are the buttons. 469.00 worth of cover buttons. OH. MY. GOD. They are all counted and sorted and ready to be shipped to those who purchased and the rest are for me to use/sell. It was actually quite mind clearing to sit and count that many buttons! 2,4,6,8,.....Now to remember to move the money from Paypal to the bank to cover that credit card purchase for 469.00 worth of buttons!

So today, perhaps I shall get some button making done while the kid rests, perhaps I shall sew, or perhaps I shall nap myself as I am attempting to get a full time job and if I get it, will not have TIME for naps!

So confess it people...what supplies have YOU bought lately? What is on your drawing board for creating??
