I have more to say than this.

But I don't have time. In fact, this moment is precisely the wrong time to try an "come up for air" from the depths of the non-blogging underworld in which I have been living for the past... gasp... four months? Really. Wow.

In any case, I'm making my first quilt in months this weekend (Thursday marks the day that it is acceptable for me to come out of hiding for the time being) and I wanted to show off some of the incredible fabric I got from Hawthorne Threads for this very special "I'm getting a big girl bed" quilt. Yeah, it's a cell phone image.... that I took when the fabric arrived at school. So...



Wedding planning is full steam ahead. I wont talk much about it... I don't think. There are certain things that I really really want that we really really (probably) can't afford. Even though I'm D-I-Myselfing a ton - my dress and bridesmaid dresses with the help of my very elegant and talented friend Taylor; the centerpieces; my make up; my nails; my shoes (yeah, I'm going to make a pair from payless look like Louboutins, and I don't just mean make them have a red sole); the save the dates; the table numbers; the escort card box; the huppah - we are still having a hard time making our budget stretch to pay for the rehersal dinner, wedding, and honeymoon. So here are the things I would have if I could have anything (materialistic and wedding related):

1. Betsy Dunlap Calligraphy.



2. Rifle Paper Co. invitations



3. The ability to letter, paint, and illustrate as shown above.

4. To find a place to have the rehearsal dinner that we can afford and that wont burn down.

5. A wedding planner (if this was a longer list, this would be cross referenced with "sanity").

Alright, back in my hole. Hopefully I'll have something crafty to show you for next time. And hopefully that will be before June.
