I think each one got progressively better in quality as a figured out the best way to sew them.
They mostly stay on the red patterned side, but it's nice to know we have options.
I also finished scrapbooking our cruise from last year.
We went to Grand Cayman, Belize, Rotatan, and Costa Maya with our very fun cousins!! It was so fun reliving the memories.
On a whim, I decided I wanted to make a new bedskirt for our bed that went all the way to the floor (i.e. to hide all of the things we store underneath it!!).
It's hard to tell from the picture, but the material is a soft plush brown, slightly reflective finish. I
think it goes pretty well with our new rug.
And lastly, on Thursday we had BME (Biomedical Engineering) Research Day at school where all the graduate students presented a poster on their research. Here was mine:
I'll spare you my little spiel. If you have any questions, feel free to ask. ;)
Next on the agenda:
* Figure out what to do on the kitchen wall above the benches (maybe wainscoating?)
* Work on an album for Adam's Grandma (Scrapbooking weekend @ Lake Geneva in November, here I come!)
* Make curtains for the Living Room
* Finish the PhD... (hahaha!)
I'll keep you posted!

I'm very impressed with all your completed projects! They look great. I can't make your poster big, I'd love to see what it has on it better. :)
You are an amazing woman! I am proud of you, keep it up!
I have engineering/sewing/craft question for you.... Downstairs the kids have windows that look out to concrete, and at the top is a grate to the yard so that they can escape in case of fire. Any ideas how to make it look nicer than the bugs, dead grass clippings and spider web view? We tried curtains, but if you want air and sunlight in there you have to open them. I will send you a picture.
That last post was Karen's.
