No Podcast this WeekPosted by Brye Lynn on February 8, 2010
Sorry – no podcast this week. Here’s the story:
I really did not do much this week. I worked on my sock; got about 80% of it done. I am really psyc’d to start on a new knitting project, so I am working quickly on that. I also worked on my embroidery software, trying to digitize [...]
Yoo Hoo on my BlocksPosted by Brye Lynn on January 20, 2010
Tonight my husband spilled YooHoo on my Frolic blocks.
I had them sitting on my table, waiting to be sewn together once my machine is working again. He has a really bad habit of using my sewing table as a rest for his drinks.
Luckily, it is all washable and I intended on it to be washed. [...]
Pigeon on our RoofPosted by Brye Lynn on January 12, 2010
Our new home came with a “pet”.
This pigeon is living on our roof. He rarely leaves. The neighbors have told us that he is the neighborhood pigeon and spends time on all the houses, but as you can see, there is enough poop to prove where he lives. I believe he is a homing pigeon, [...]
I told you I can’t CookPosted by Brye Lynn on January 5, 2010
Rick my hamburgers for dinner tonight. My only job was to cut up tomatos and lettuce. What a perfect opportunity to use my new mandolin.
Here is the disaster I made. Tomato Mush.
I can’t figure out what I did wrong. Maybe a mandolin is not meant for a soft veggie.
I better stick to the Easy Bake [...]
Taking Button DonationsPosted by Brye Lynn on November 20, 2009
Yesterday, a receptionist at a business I frequent gave me an idea for a quilt. She is so sweet and friendly, I would like to bring her idea to life for her. She thought about making a quilt out of buttons – or having a quilt with buttons all over it.
The [...]

New Sewing ChairPosted by Brye Lynn on September 10, 2009
Check out my new sewing chair! Best of all – it was FREE!!
Remember me saying that this bad economy has hit my work particularly hard? Well, one of our plants shut down about a year ago. I had to go over to the abandoned plant today to search for some paperwork. While I was there, [...]
