Jeremy and Kristin brought back two Japanese sewing magazines for me when they returned to the states. This one had a project that I recently attempted.
It had some English words, but most of it is Japanese characters and it even reads from right to left.
While out with Mom Sullivan at a local quilt shop, I found some Little Red Riding Hood fabric. My little sister loves Little Red, so I bought a yard and made this:
Brendan and I drove down to Ohio this weekend to welcome Jeremy, Kristin, and Aeris to the states as well as to attend my cousin Tommy’s wedding.

My beautiful family came to see me this weekend! We had a wonderful time visiting, and I was glad to show Mom, Dad, and Nette our house.
Don’t we need an American flag?
I made Angry Birds for Lee for Christmas along with a promise to make more of the characters. Unfortunately, I hadn’t been able to locate the proper shades of green fleece for the pigs. Darling Mom Sullivan to the rescue! She sent me some green fleece and matching threads. Here are the results:
Lee, I love you, and your pigs are on their way!
Love,

I had the day off yesterday and spent it sewing! Here is the result of glorious, uninterrupted sewing time:
Jo-Ann’s had another $.99 Simplicity pattern sale. Mom and Dad Knapp went to the store for me (since the closest one to me is several hours away) and bought several patterns for me. Thanks, Mom and Dad.
Now, which pattern to sew first…
Love,
Tiff
Thanks to the Amazon gift card from my mom and dad for Christmas, my sewing library has expanded:
So many patterns I am itching to try!

I have always loved Legos. I can remember playing with them for as long as I can remember being a kid. Even at 27, I’m not at all averse to new Lego adventures. Tiff and I got the boys a Lego game for Christmas. Pirates…. what else? It somewhat emulates the “code” game, Mastermind. You have to guess the code the other player(s) has(ve) in their treasure chest. With only 6 colors, the game goes pretty quickly, but it’s still entertaining, and it’s Legos..so there’s plenty of room for expansion.
