someone else's thoughts

"The world has enough women who are tough; we need women who are tender. There are enough women who are coarse; we need women who are kind. There are enough women who are rude; we need women who are refined. We have enough women of fame and fortune; we need more women of faith. We have enough greed; we need more goodness. We have enough vanity; we need more virtue. We have enough popularity; we need more purity." - Margaret Nadauld
"I long to accomplish a great and noble task, but it is my chief duty to accomplish small tasks as if they were great and noble." - Helen Keller

girlie crafts.

Still no winner in my quirky letter contest (just guess my favorite letter of the alphabet, and I'll send you a fun prize), so the game continues! I'll keep a running tab here of the alphabet... I'll mark out what's been guessed. Just hit the comments button, and give it a try...

I'm in full craft mode again. I'm participating in Mommycoddle's Miniswap, and I have birthdays coming up, too... so I've been working on gifts. So fun! I am loving getting to do some girlie stuff, and I'm excited that some of my never-tried-before sewing endeavors are turning out pretty well. I want to share, but until the gifts are given, you'll have to settle for some work-in-progress photos.

Don't you love the fabrics? The first is from a couple of thrifted wool and tweed blazers, and the second has a couple of flannels I picked up at Joann's for $1/yd the day after Thanksgiving. They were calling out for a little girl project.

Oh, and I finally printed out Hillary's wonderful magnetic paper dolls! They make me oh-so-happy. Zachy likes to change her outfit once or twice a day, but he doesn't really play with them. But that's totally okay, because the real purpose of them is to make my fridge look adorable. And that's all.
