Um, I may have gotten the t-shirts for this in the spring of 2009. Like March 2009. Regardless, I finally finished it. It broke my sewing machine twice. Twice. Therefore, not making any more quilts (at least quilting them). So if you want a quilt, I’ll make the top, but you’re on your own for [...]
My mom posted a bunch of pictures of my niece on Facebook today, and as usual, they were frighteningly cute. I had to share this one with you — it’s Emee reading to my dog, Barney. He intently listened apparently for quite a while.
I don’t think I’m going to get [...]
Barney went home with my parents a couple weeks ago when I moved into Mark’s non-dog-friendly place.
I miss the little bastard and his cute fluffy fur coat, which was especially fluffy after a bath.
Did I mention he doesn’t like the blow [...]
I wanted to share this adorable hat pattern with you. It’s for a swirl hat that can be made in almost any size. I made the toddler size for my niece. It took me a little over an hour to knit and it’s super cute!
I think it’s [...]
Don’t worry — she’s 2. She’s not going to read my blog. If she does, then I’m more than proud of her.
I had cut up my prom dress from my senior year of high school a couple months back for my birthday party, but had failed pretty miserably. So I had a TON of [...]
This is definitely an F-O Friday. F standing for a very naughty word that for the sake of my bloggity-readers and my facebook friends, I will edit out.
My friend Lora (who doesn’t have a blog that I know about so I can’t link here) recently went through a very traumatic time. Her mother [...]
Yay! I finally finished it.
A while back my grandpa had given me a bunch of quilt blocks that my granny (my great grandma) had made some time ago before she died in 2002. She was kind of the queen of WIP, so I’m still collecting some random crafty things she’d started and going through [...]
This past weekend, Mark and I trekked up north to his family’s place in the Twin Cities to hit up his brother’s 30th Birthday and Housewarming party. Our friend Ben met us at Mark’s parents’ house on the way back from a camping trip in Canada. Ben’s car had been broken into a few different [...]
It’s been so long since I had a weekend of hermiting and crafting. The cat’s away so the mouse will … be lame and stay indoors on a Saturday night?
This used to be my typical Saturday night: run, shower, laundry, movies, crafting, sleep.
Lately I’ve been doing things. Like a lot of things. I [...]
Well, not really, but we did go to the townie bar. Well, they’re all townie bars I guess.
I took Mark home last week to meet my family and my friends. My family loved him (I mean, what’s not to love?) and my friends did as well. We went to the Eagles Club where my [...]
Hi there. I'm Calee. Not Caylee. Also known as chimes or the chimes. I'm 27, a designer, a runner, a self-proclaimed fitness queen, a craftster, a foodie, a music snob — some might call me a hipster. Here's the unabridged version.
