It's hectic at HQ: making more & more & more goodies for the holidays. The lads have been spending inordinate amounts of time on my lap and at my feet while I spend all day (and some nights) sewing.

(And that is a gross understatement, to say the least) HQ was for sale, which meant ... alot of aggravation here! Too many random strangers tromping to & fro: far, far, far too early in the day. Certainly made getting work accomplished a wee bit challenging!
Now that things have (somewhat) settled down, I'm hard at work on Waffles' Quarantine Kitchenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08547702855021967184noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5858081083595968902.post-41326127101658710482014-07-04T14:08:00.000-04:002014-07-04T14:08:00.761-04:00Fourth of July
Two posts in the same week: it's a MIRACLE! In honour of the holiday (and your b-d, Pal), one relevant song:

Sadly, the song I'd really like to post isn't available. (Chants R&B: I'll Teach You Everything. It's my jam at the moment, in case you wuz wonderin')
Working on some new fun, summer themed goodies! I've been a slack ass almost all spring (in regards to the WB); not so much in the RL.
Plus, Christmas in July sale starts next week!
Happy Wednesday.

To the degree of, 2 years ago, I worked all weekend, in costume. No big deal, right? I worked in 3 different, somewhat elaborate costumes! And donned a 4th for Halloween proper.

I bought so much Halloween fabric this year (like every other year!), just so there were lots & lots & lots of goodies Waffles' Quarantine Kitchenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08547702855021967184noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5858081083595968902.post-80293219653622297172013-10-27T13:50:00.000-04:002013-11-02T13:51:07.550-04:00Been gone so long!Been gone so very, very long.

This occupied me this spring. Doesn't look too impressive, until you factor in that stack is close to 3 feet high, 4 feet long and 3 rows thick. This went off to Cats Like Us. There are quite a few limited edition EXCLUSIVES that you can only get thru them! Yay!!!

This was a custom order that came out so cute (IMO) and is so appropriate for the holiday!
I think this may, with a little bit of tweaking, become a regular item in the shop.

Thankfully, the pretty, pretty, pretty flowers are dying off. Every member of the household seems to be allergic to them! I'm really hoping that this is one of those once every 7 years bloom, cause not only do they make me want to tear out my eyes, they smell like panther piss. Yuck. Now that the tree is 6 feet tall, it's a wee bit difficult to move.

My corn tree got flowers for the first time!!! I have never seen one with flowers, ever. My mother was telling me about a friend of hers who has a gigantic one, which is currently flowering. I look over at mine, notice the buds, and say "oh, like that?". Utterly hilarious.
I am super excited to see what the flowers will look like once they are fully bloomed.

Why all the zipper hoarding? It's been at least 4 months since the last big zipper binge.

I went a little nuts buying new prints for spring time. (whistling, eyes looking off to the side) Have some cool new ideas for WB spring & summer lines that require a larger scale print, as well as a bit of a deviation from my normal pattern selection.
Some of these I just loved (the owls & forest scene, on the left), some are restocks of prints that have almost sold out, some Waffles' Quarantine Kitchenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08547702855021967184noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5858081083595968902.post-11914833463272282572013-03-07T14:24:00.000-05:002013-03-07T14:27:24.259-05:00New iPad sleeves ....
At the moment, these are a few of the ones I really, really, really like.
Now to get motivated to photograph all these bad boys ... They should be in the shop by the weekend.
I love the zebra fabric; I've been sitting on it for over 2 1/2 years, waiting for the right project before cutting into it. Not my normal sort of attraction, yet I found it so compelling.

I may get really wacky and post the recipes, along with the tweaking I've done of them. We'll see.

Dinner at WB HQ was so, so, so good, I had to share! Penne with anchovies, capers, shallots & clams (no clams for me, tho). I absolutely love that I only have to walk to the end of my block to get really amazing fresh produce. They carry some really offbeat items, too; I had to ask what cranberry beans were, having never seen them before.
I'm getting so crazy in to cooking of late.

Is this for us?!?
Sheesh, finally the craziness is over! The last 6 weeks have been non-stop: sewing, sewing, sewing, pool & work. And of course, these guys take up large amounts of time. Santa brought them a big box of goodies. This one seems to be their favorite so far.

This is my last custom order for 2012. I really love how it turned out. This fabric being incredibly adorable definitely helped.

Last night was our pool teams league night. As it turned out, the team we were supposed to shoot pulled a no-show. As we were the only folks in the joint at that time, we decided to have a little mini-tourney. It's not an entirely common event that we're all together, with no-one else waiting on the table, so we decided to make it count.
