Have you ever read the back of your lotion bottles? I highly recommend it. I mean it isn’t as entertaining as spying on my neighbors, but on a slow day (ie: when they are out of town), the lotion bottles can be very entertaining. I think there must be some huge pool of out-of-work Harlequin [...]

First of all, what the heck happened to November? I had all these Thanksgiving ideas to share! I guess you’ll just have to print this out for next year. Although, there’s still time to make this little card to attach to your hostess gifts.
This is so much easier than it looks! I just glued ribbon [...]

My name is Mary and I have an addiction to glitter. I glitter everything. Gourds. Pictures of strangers. Mason jars. Deer statues. My pants. Although to be fair, the glittery pants are more a result of spillage than intentional bedazzling.

I free-handed all the paper piecing. And [...]

Remember my picture of the little girl in the checkered dress? (http://marybt.wordpress.com/2009/10/14/edna-is-not-observant/) It was suggested that I keep her around for all the various holidays. She needs a name.
Here she is all ready for Thanksgiving!
I couldn’t figure out how to make a pilgrim hat, so I made her an Indian. They were at the first [...]
