Baking, Sewing, Online Shopping--That's My Evening

Big outlet reduction at my favorite clothing store (C*old*wat*er C*r*eek)--up to 85% off. I picked up just a couple of items...

another jean jacket - love the vintage lace on this one...also LOVE the big mark down - was $129.99, now $29.99!



This lightweight white cut out detailed shirt will be great for this summer.  I've had this one in my shopping cart for three weeks, just waiting until the price came down. Tonight I decided it was about as low as it was going to get and placed the order.  If I wait for it to go any lower, my size will probably sell out....it's like a game...sometimes I make out like a bandit; other times I lose the item by waiting.  I also found a code for free S/H - AFLC201 - in case anybody wants to use it. It just worked at 6:30 p.m., but I expect it to expire very soon.

I have not been doing much of interest the past few days.  It's been snowing - terrible roads when I went to work this morning. 
Last week I  finished the first nutcracker block. I have started another one.


 I am also putzing around with some  hearts. I have not sewn anything tonight because I am just not in the mood.  I did bake some little cakes, using a couple of pans I rarely use--hearts and mini bundts.
They match the heart blocks!

  7. Thanks, Deb.

    Pea, I have been searching the net for table runner ideas for those heart blocks--I now have six done and don't know what I am going to do with them.

    OBQ - so is that a problem?... sewing taking up all of our time...LOL. I do know what you mean. We can get lost in our sewing projects.

    Betty, I wish you lived near by. I would teach you how to do it and you would be amazed how easy it really is!

    Thanks, M-F. I hope they turn out to be bargains. I have not been happy with my last few purchases from CC--mostly jewelry--cheaply made and falls apart easily.

    Karen,
    I could never accomplish a rockery like you have!!!!
