Alrighty…it’s been a CRAZY last few weeks…VBS (teaching 3rd/4th graders – YIKES!!), new nephew was born, started my new PT job, in addition to the daily grind.

I’ve been working on “Pillar” and should be able to get her finished by summer’s end.  WooHoo!!

I met w/the SBDC yesterday for my monthly meeting.  I showed her my progress on Pillar, few books I found for inspiration, transfer paper for tracing and putting pictures on graph paper, and we discussed how to go about getting “rights” to design Veggietales projects.  I’m thinking to email them today/tomorrow. 

We also talked about finding a way to get samples stitched faster.  Currently, I’m the only one who “has time” for this – one sister and my mom(she also doesn’t really like counted cross stitch, but stamped) live in D/FW, the other sister has 2 little ones under 3(couldn’t ask her when she’s got enough on her plate) and MIL is busy w/her stuff.  So, we were brainstorming and she mentioned some fabric that will print off your home printer.  HMMM.  Custom stamped projects too?!?!  So, I made a special trip to Joann’s after work today w/the boys to look for this stuff.  We found it (not too bad $$-wise).  This might be a way to send some stuff to Mom for her to stitch for me, I’ll have some example pix to submit to the designer site and possibly make some $$.  Kinda exciting, huh??  At least for me.  😀
