Jeremy has been wanting a leather rollup thing to put his guitar stuff in for school – such as sandpaper/nailclippers.. etc. He is a classical guitarist – so his nails have to be perfect – weird I know… but he plays great!



He never, ever looks at my website – so I’m crossing my fingers that he won’t feel the sudden urge to check it out within the next month… haha!

After a few days of browsing the web for cool embroidery patterns I thought I would try and make one of my own. I haven’t actually tried out any of the patterns yet – but I am so anxious to do it… I just have to find the time. But here is my first attempt modeled after the peace sign fabric I found & made in Adobe Illustrator! Feel free to try it out if you want to!

So today I had a pile of fabric scraps next to my sewing machine… and I looked over and saw my clear glass ball ornaments that I had bought a couple of years ago – which I meant to paint… but never did! I was thinking that MAN that might look cute hanging from a tree – and they did turn out halfway decent looking!


Let me know what you think!

So I might as well admit it – I bought myself a Nintedo DS! I know it may seem like a childish thing to do – but have you seen all the commercials with the celebrity’s?! If you haven’t then you should – if you have – then you know how convincing they are! Haha!
Well… since I bought one I didn’t want it to get all scratched up – because not only would be husband be very mad, but it would be like I was wasting all that money I spent! So I made a case for it! Also – I was told not to get pink…because Jeremy wants to play it to! Ha – so I guess its not JUST me that thinks they are cool! So anyway – I wanted something to make it a little prettier… and I did!




By the way…. this is my 100th post! Yay for me actually sticking with something for once in my life! I hope that there will be several more 100’s to come!

Priss Pot has finally gotten some NEW super cool – UNIQUE fabrics! These items will be posted on Etsy soon when they are all finished! So be on the look out!




The vinal and bias tape still has to be added on to the bibs!

And on the flip side…

I now can make booties in sizes 0-3, 3-6, 6-9 and 9-12 months! This is my first attempt at a bigger size and they turned out great! I love the new fabrics I have to – it gives the Priss Pot name such a new upbeat look – which I think – is just what it needed!

So when the writers were on strike this past year a bunch of different actors/ writers got together and made tiny TV shows…. this is the website that plays them. I watched House Poor, Joe & Kate and Faux Baby – but there are a bunch of different ones! They are super funny!

This wasn’t as successful as I planned on it being – or had hoped it would be. But it was a good learning experience and I did sell a couple of items as well as get one custom order placed! Here are a few pictures from my table…




At the festival I ended up leaving a little early and spending the day with my sister instead. I wanted to put this picture up from the tiny photo shoot we had because I just love it.
