Check it out! Someone found my hat and pinned it!!! Source: ninjadesigns.wordpress.com via Bethany on Pinterest That’s right, someone looked at something that I did and liked it so much, they want to look at again later. This is a monumental day. I think there should be cake. Cake all week.
A few weeks ago I was on some heavy medication for a busted tailbone (just ask me how much fun THAT is) and I was off work because I couldn’t sit on it. We don’t get a whole lot of nice warm weather here in Calgary and the the entire weekend ended up being up [...]

For my dad’s birthday I made him a hat. Not just any old hat, it’s a welding hat. At first glance, you might wonder what exactly is wrong with these welding hats? They look weird, like a real ball-cap’s geeky younger brother. They’re often made from strange fabrics, like someone just reached into the scrap [...]
I started working on this fabulous welding hat pattern from Haley, The Autocrat earlier this week. I started by cutting fabrics… check it, I cut 6 pieces at the same time! and then I got distracted. Distracted by sleep – I was in bed by 6pm two nights in a row this week… I blame [...]
guess what I was working on last night… more on that tomorrow…
