Imaginary Cupcakes

Can't you taste them already?


Yum! Don't they look so delicious!

I put my piping skills to the test and made up some imaginary frosting. I took them to Game Night a month back and they were gobbled all up!

(The square root of a negative number results in an imaginary number.)

Busy Busy

and no time for photos.

I've been so busy between school, work, having Grandpa visiting and trying to spend time with Andrew that I haven't had much time to pull my sewing machine out. I did a little bit of sewing last night though making some cool-ties for a co-workers daughter who is serving in Iraq.
My Mom also picked up a sweet deal on a Husqvarna Sewing Machine and Serger for $125 from Craigslist. The sewing machine had a bunch of feet and a walking foot that I might be able to use on my Husqvarna. (We are a Husqvarna family)
I still haven't gotten around to finishing up Andrew's Christmas present. I'm going to have to find some floor space to tie it off so I can finish it up. I also need to find a backing fabric for the quilt I was making for myself. Also want to make one of these:
The Purl Bee has a great tutorial on how to make one!

I was invited by co-worker to take part in a project for another co-worker whose daughter sadly passed away recently. We are going to be making two memory quilts out of her clothes both for her mother and a close friend.
