Its all true, the boogie girl is real, and you've found her. She knits, sews, spins, does pottery and writes it all down in this blog.

And just where have I been?
I've been here.
Well, not here.
More like over there and down there and a bit over there and there too.
What have I been doing?
Working my butt off.
Not literally.
It's still there, I just checked.
I know it doesn't look like much but I put alot of work into my bags. There are also a bunch that are different stages of completion, I've got some needle rolls done, Some crochet hook rolls, a whole mess of embroidery. Embroidery? yes, cute little sheepses. See the bag to the far left. Its appliqued and embroidered. He's soft too. I have a bunch of those to make, I've got sachets for moth balls, no more ugly cakes of moth repellent. Well you get the idea. I've also embroidered a couple of tops. 
Cute is it not? The color didn't show up well, its a pink satin sheep, I also have a white fluffy one. I've been thinking of selling shirts too, or maybe I'll just make them for friends, they'd be great lil' give-aways. I'm also making headway on the pottery items. I have a bit more I'd like to get done. I got a call yesterday to make a special flax cup. They look really interesting. I may just be adding them to the line as soon as they are done. Someday maybe I'll be back to making just pottery for a living. 
I've been knitting a bit too. Lisa's baby shower is tomorrow and I decided her baby needed a teddy bear that had a matching sweater. I did that this afternoon because the idea just dawned on me today. I've got a bunch more done on Rosedale. I'm almost at the part where I join in the sleeves. As soon as I get that done, I'm sure I won't be able to resist trying it on and snapping a pic. If you're nice I'll show you.
