Runaway October

So I went ahead and bit the bul­let. I joined the Mar­ket Tote Swap hosted by InANut­shell. The last cou­ple swaps I’ve par­tic­i­pated in have been a com­plete flop. I’d put so much love and time into them and received, well… I’d rather not say. On top of that my last apron I mailed is still miss­ing in tran­sit. I’m hop­ing that this one will pull me up out of the dumps and it sounds like so much fun. 

There’s still a cou­ple hours left to sign up, head on over and join me. It looks like a great bunch of crafters so far! (Nudge nudge Nicky)

Right, I need another dead­line like I need another 2 year old. Seri­ously. But this one is right up my alley and noth­ing to stress over if I miss it. Yay!

The incred­i­bly tal­ented Orange Flower has cre­ated a chal­lenge to post one macro photo a day for every day of April. Sounds super sim­ple right? There’s even a flickr group. Make sure to check it out and def­i­nitely join us if you’d like it. It’s already got me look­ing closer at things and I’ve got a lot of ideas. Now if only I could keep the dog still long enough…

Here’s mine for today. I cheated and took a pic­ture of my com­pleted apron for the Flirty Apron Swap. I don’t want to post the whole apron in case my part­ner is look­ing around. If you must see it, check out my flickr account — it’s buried in there.
