New Templates and New Snugglie Bags!




I apologize for my lack of being here! I've just felt rather crummy since the surgery (no quick movements or bending over for me!) and have gotten nothing done! I finally used my new sewing machine today... it works so much better than my old one! It has some bugs, but I think we will be able to work it out together!

Here's a look at my freebie templates for you today! They are titled Horizon and Floral Trim Templates. Click HERE to download both freebies!






I've also made a few Snugglie Bags today! Here's a peek at those....



They are being put on ETSY as we speak!!

Hope everyone has a good week!

Update!

**Surgery Update**
Surgery went well, my sinuses are feeling better than they have in quite some time!! I haven't had the gross side effects as I did with the surgery 7 months ago. However, my neck and throat hurt SO MUCH! The breathing tube and the way they positioned my head did this... Vicodin and a million ice packs have done nothing for me. Unfortunately, I am stuck sitting in a four hour class right now.

On another crummy note, my sewing machine decided it no longer wanted to work as of yesterday. Super frustrating, but I got a new one that I will not have to argue with constantly, which makes me EXTREMELY happy because now I can actually finish all of the Snugglie Bags that are sitting cut and ready to be sewn. I have the supplies to make hammocks but I want to get all of my bags ready to go first.

For my digi scrappers, I have two templates sitting waiting to be put up on my other computer so I will get on that when I get home, if I'm alive enough!

Stay Tuned!

Stripe Me!

Well I hope nobody read that title wrong :) but I guess that's my intention.. to get your attention! I am back with a new freebie template! I have one for today and I'm thinking two for tomorrow....

Here's today's freebie titled "Stripe Me"

After the overwhelming response.. err rather download.. of similar templates (Concrete and Modern Templates from months past) I decided to make another template along those lines.

Click the Here to download it!

I hope you can find a use for it in your scrapping!

Coming Soon...

Here's a pic of the Snugglie Bags to come! You can see a peek at the patterns and the coordinating color that will come with it. I have about a 15 that are cut, just waiting to be sewn. This is a girly batch I must say, don't worry there will be more masculine colored bags to come.


I figured I'd get all the cutting down now before my surgery. I'm having sinus surgery AGAIN. Had it at thanksgiving time but had infection after infection since! I've probably been on almost 10 different antibiotics in 7 months! GEZ! I won't be able to bend over that much after surgery, so I will spend that time sewing...
If any one has requests, feel free to email me at sweetteascraps at comcast dot net. Sorry I had to do it that way, I didn't want spammers to get me!


**ADDITION: Here's a look at two floral bags I made..... Will be up on etsy on Sunday or Monday.**

Snugglie!


Hello again folks!!! My blog is going to be taking a bit of turn... or rather it will be double dipping...

After losing EVERYTHING to a cruddy laptop harddrive... I was a taken aback a bit... I took a step away from the scrapping world evaluating what exactly I was doing. I lost everything, yet it didn't mean to much when I wasn't making money from it anyway. Well, after acquiring the cutest little lady (my new hedgehog Noodles) I was very focused on her and her needs. Here she is:

Turns out there's a need for sleeping bags for hedgehogs and similar animals. So I've been sewing like a crazy person (or fighting with the sewing machine like a crazy person, either one). Here's Noodles enjoying hers... or rather falling asleep in hers.


You can check out my Snugglie Bags on my etsy page....

Don't worry, I will be making more freebie templates soon! I'm thinking one is overdue perhaps in a week!
