Weekend Project

I have a few things in the works for the weekend, number one being change the blog software. Over the past few weeks, I've gotten TONS of Trackback SPAM. By TONS, I mean like fourteen. Easily managed, but I'm sick of managing it. So I've installed new blog software, I just have to figure out how to migrate my past entries into it.

The next project is for Sew? I Knit! The project for the month is a bag, so I'm trying to make a few. The first one is for me, and the other two are gifts, so no sharing. But I gotta say, I'm so proud of my fabric choices for my gift bags that I can't wait to post pics!!! Anyway, the not-gifty bag I'm going to work on this weekend. I'm sewing up a Velma bag from Amy Butler Designs. I was lucky enough to get the fabric and pattern on Ebay a few months ago pretty cheap.

I cut the fabric out last night, and will sew it up today. I've wanted this bag for a while now. It is actually what got me interested in sewing again, though, at the time I became interested, there was no way I could afford both the pattern and the exact fabric. So this bag is like the "dream bag"... or something like that.

I'm also going to work on my toe-up sock project.

I'm actually using a pattern this time around. It is Badcaul, available here. I'm hoping that these socks turn out, because I do like the pattern and I LOVE the yarn, but so far, I'm not digging my toe-up socks. There is a reason behind it, and as soon as I'm done with the change of the software, I'll let you know what that reason is.

Oh, I also have an Easter project in the works. No matter what, I'll post a picture of that tomorrow!

HAPPY EASTER!!!
