That title suggests that I have more then one, honestly I'm not sure if i even have that many, but what I am here to shortly post.
Is an apology. I planned on writing this summer but I got hooked on a few video games o.O

THANK YOU FOR THE QUICK POST

EDIT: Grand Re-open & Etsy opening on may 15th!!
I apologize but my shop never open because of lack of funds.
[the sewing books I'm using as reference]
I've decided to take a stand againt my procrastination and do an official public opening of my etsy store, and the reopening of my blog!! i'm so excited! i'll go ahead and fill you in on a few things!My store will host one catagory of an item for a period of time (i'm thinking 2-3 months) where i will be making diffrent versions of this one central item.
For example, my first series will be ''Pot Holders" , the patterns will be similar, but the colors and fabric combos will change!
At the end of this period i will present a mini-giveaway presenting the last item of the series bundled with the first of the new series!! (this will be on my blog, here xD)
Once I've completed a series then it will go into a "vault" (plastic bin) and only one store slot will present the left-overs (yummy left-overs!) !
my items will NOT just be sewn! my shop will be a "Handmade Boutique" featuring my handmade items, along with a few other special visitors who will also post, and sell there items!

Chaos in the Mind
I'm sorry that i have posted! i've been so stressed, and I just haven't been in the mood to blog. I'm trying to be zen about my blogging and use it as a way to relax and reach out.
My current Project list (just to let you in on my crazy chaos)
- Start up my Inspire Book (It started as frustration..[details one day Dx])
- finish my tshirt throw (i think im gonna end this project Because its become a chore)
- blog at least once a week. (as a zen, not a chore)
- love Crafypod!! i mean you all should love it too!!
- Make a hobo- styled bag from 1 fat quarter cotton + recycled "re-use" bags from grocery store! (current attempt)
- And a lot of other things I can't think off!
- What do you do with whose re-usable grocery bags, that's not traditional?!
- Have you gotten crafty-overload?! what did you do to heal yourself?!
Well, i'm off to tackle the HOBO!!! (bag of coarse)
happy Almost-Spring everyone,

"Seams" like a Sewing Day
=), i find myself drooling at the photo. I'm crazy about it!I got this first, first to what you ask? I purchased this machine on my "big ideas, handy chick" list, which was created just for the handy girl in me.(I'll update on other purchases in later posts) =)
For now I'm just saving up money for fabric, notions, etc. I've used the beautiful internet to get me creative tutorials, but nothing compares to holding patterns, so! I get Sew Easy at my local Joann's =) and i look for fun purse patterns, etc.!
Lately I've had this odd draw to Good Will and other Thrift stores! so maybe i'll find some cute graphic tees & sweatshirts to use in my projects!!
MY QUESTIONS FOR YOU TODAY:
Are you a Handy-Chick/ or Handy-Man? Whats your favorite tool?
Do you find yourself drawn to Thrift Stores? What's your reason?
LOVE ALWAYS,
La-Bu-Bu (Erika Rain)

A little Tea with my milk and sugar
Collecting these little guys has become a mini-hobby in itself. Though these are only three of my collection because I've miss placed the others *uh-oh*.
Lately, i've found myself on this very site and a few of my other favorites such as:
While sipping my lovely tea and hoping one day i could become a great and well known blogger!
MY QUESTIONS FOR YOU:
What do you find yourself doing when sipping on your morning drink?
Are you willing to share other sites that are fun and creative for me to explore?
Love,
La-Bu-Bu ( Erika Rain)
