Sunday Lately :: Week 139

Aug 27, 2017

 

Sunday Lately is a weekly linkup hosted by the Blogger Tribe, which is fearlessly led by Angelica (Gardening in High Heels) and myself. We e-hangout every Sunday, sharing a small glimpse into the past week of life in our own worlds. We’d love if you could join us!

This week’s themes: Skipping, Mastering, Climbing, Encouraging, Modeling

 

Skipping. A few beats of my heart.  Corny, yes.  But seriously, the guy I married is just the best.  He picked me up on Friday from work and took Louis and me to the park for an impromptu picnic.  We sat on a blanket, ate together at the park, and then laid back and stared at the clouds for a really long time, just picking out shapes that we saw in them.  So much laughing and just quality non-distracted family time.  I’m one lucky girl.

Mastering. More with my “pattern designing”.  I updated the Wanderer Skirt a little, to include finished measurements, a new front length and an A0 file.  Go grab your free copy of the skirt pattern HERE!

Climbing. Lots of hills again.  I am taking Louis’ back-to-school time as a new jumping off point for exercise and better health.  Monday – Friday (minimum) you’ll be finding me climbing the hills in my driveway for two miles every morning.  I feel good after just a week of moving my feet again and it’s been an easier transition than I thought it’d be.

Encouraging. Myself to revisit web development again for my Thread & Grain website.  It’s time.  It needs to happen.  I just get to the point of being overwhelmed and I want to quit all the things. I’m trying hard to fix everything BEFORE I launch the site.  Crossing all fingers and toes that I can get it done quickly, because I have something fun I want to release and having the new site will be super helpful with it.

Modeling. Some new clothes that will be showing up on the blog soon!  One of them, I already posted in the P4P group last night, but I’ll have a full blog post for it Monday (??).  Stoked.


Disclosure: As always, you’ll find some affiliate links scattered within my post, which means I receive a small amount of compensation if you end up purchasing something I’ve recommended.  Keep in mind that I link these companies and their products because of their quality and not because of the commission I receive from your purchases. The decision is yours, and whether or not you decide to buy something is completely up to you.  Purchasing from my links does not alter the pricing in any way for you, it simply helps feed my sewing, creating and blogging habits.  Thank you for your support!
