I want to start off by saying, flu season as kicked my house’s butt. EVERYONE was sick, since the baby goes to daycare, she picks up everything that is going around there and brings it home (thanks to the disease ridden boy I like to call “the paci stealer”. It’s actually funny to see, but not fun when you get the other part. One time when I got to pick her up, he was standing beside her exersaucer with her paci in his mouth, with it still attached to her by her paci strap, she look at me like, what the heck mom! - freaking adorable) but I digress, because of the baby getting sick then passing it along to me then my husband, then getting better, then the cycle starting again, I’ve had no desire to sew, or do anything other than sit on my couch. I feel like a slacker, but now that hopefully we’re all getting better I’ve been in the mood to sew again! while i've been gone, the babe has learned three new skills!!!

But anyway, on to the real post:
I’ve been keeping a running list of all the projects that I would like to attempt in the future, along with those I have already done, why, because I’m a list maker and that’s just what I like to do. Well I have a sewing journal, where I write out my tutorials and posts before I write them to the web, because I’m horrible at spilling out my thought straight to a computer, I’m just an old fashion paper/pen type of person. But, every time I open up that notebook, I see my list in the front. I wasn’t sure that I was going to share the list or not, but I figure, you might as well see what I have coming up and what you have to look forward to:
