Sorry this post is a couple days late – I swear everything around here takes longer than I think it will. We decided to move our living room furniture around this weekend, which meant moving our TV and Ken had to re-wire the house because we didn’t have cable on the new wall. Thank goodness he knows how to do that, but he had to disconnect the internet in my room for a while. (Bonus, no internet = I cleaned my house!) Extremely long story short: Our townhouse is too small. We both work from home and need separate work spaces, but we only have 2 bedrooms and no formal dining room to turn into an office, so the living room is the only other work space. We call it the Tetris house because we are constantly flipping furniture around to try to make things work better. Plus, we never planned on staying here forever (now going on 8+ years) so we held off on buying furniture that was right for the space. We are slowly trying to change that, which is why my room was a mess for most of January while we added bookshelves for organization and moved my desk and photography stuff around. A new living room couch will be next, hopefully, eventually. My friend Lisa and I tested out the new arrangement last night with a wine and DVD night and it worked out great! (I’m trying to get her hooked on Sanctuary!)
There is a Sanctuary marathon on SyFy all day tomorrow (Thursday) – so I’m running errands tonight, hitting the gym to work off the apple pie/chocolate cake/ice cream sundaes we made last night and then sewing/taking pictures/writing all day tomorrow to hopefully finish Earbud Pouch licensed version (I’m totally re-writing it) while I watch a day full of Sanctuary :) Yes, I believe the proper term is “fangirl.” I certainly don’t try to deny it.
So, if you are still reading, do you want me to add the heart shaped pouch into the Earbud Pouch tutorial? Because I will, if you want me to! :)
Yay!!! I am very excited to be a winner and I do love purple!!! Thank you!!
Please add the heart shape to your tutorial.
Definitely add the heart shaped pouch! It’s super cute!
Thank you so much Erin! I am excited about trying out Pink Chalk Fabrics (going to purchase the 2 Zip Hipster pattern so I can try that out! I am a purse fiend!!
Yes please do!
Yes, I definitely would like a tutorial for that! Congrats on more followers!
Congratulations to the winners. Enjoy.
I know how it is to live in a house that is a bit too small. Our house is ‘comfortable’ but now that the kids are grown and have started their own families I’m starting to feet extremely cramped when more than one of them come at the same time. Heck the living room completely disappears when the holiday mealtime comes because I have to set up a banquet table in the middle of the room. Definitely not optimum when little kids want to run free. LOL I had to laugh at your ‘Tetris House’ comment because I know exactly what you mean.
I would love to see a tutorial on the heart shaped pouch, yes. Thank you so much.
Yes!! Please add the heart shape, I think that’s such a wonderful addition and choice to an already very cool item! I can’t wait!!
Am I the Andi that won?? I didn’t see an email from you, so it must be another Andi. So glad you got another sponser and I would love the tutorial as well! Your patterns are wonderful!
Yes, it is you! I emailed you again. If you don’t get it let me know!!
It’s me! It’s me! Doing the happy dance…don’t look.
Thanks Erin!!
I was hoping that if I was lucky enough to win, that those zippers would be mine. I have been eyeballing her etsy site and so wanting those long zips!
This just totally brightened a windy, dreary day :)
Thank you so much!!
Andi
Erin – thank you so much for the patterns you design. I cannot tell you how many compliments I have received on the Two Zip Hipster.
Yes Please!!
Yes! Absolutely add the heart to your earbud pouch tutorial. Thank you!!
I would love you to add the heart ear bud pouch to your tutorials! They are soooo cute!
It doesn’t matter how big or small your house is – we accumulate ‘stuff’ to fill it up what ever the size!
Our family enjoys watching ‘Sanctuary’ too. I always thought the main character looked a bit familiar but couldn’t place her. That was until my husband told me she was also in ‘Stargate’ as a blond Sam.
I love the heart shape pouch! Please add it!!!!
Yes, I love the heart-shaped earbud pouch.
