Eventless

I've got nothing to show for the last couple days. Well, essentially for this whole week really. It is really hard to focus on projects when Love is on his weekend, because I'd MUCH rather spend time with him than secluding myself with projects.

We've been playing Wii, and lots of it. That's all for now. Today won't be a day for projects either, too much laundry, dishes, and cleaning to do.

Blech.

Sneak Peek

Oh, For Pete's Sake!

Love and I bought a Wii today.

He spent a good amount of time trying to figure out all the wires that the crazy cable guy left us and set everything up!

BUT.

And why does there have to be a but?

When we cracked open the ONE game that we actually bought, we realize that it has been previously cracked open by greedy little fingers at the store and we don't have the controller piece we need for the game to work.

Jerkfaces.

Sidenote:

The store didn't have white Wii Remotes sold seperately, SO we have one white one that came with the Wii and one black one. My obsessive compulsions are frustrated by this. I thought I was saved by the fact that the black one came with a black sensor and two black covers. All good, right?

Then I found out that the recharger has to have special back pieces, and they only come in white.

addition: THERE WASN'T EVEN A DISC IN THE BOX THAT SHOULD HAVE HAD A GAME IN IT!

Life In Black And White

Sometimes...

... they just don't match.

Hit Them Up!

My great friend at Piecing It All Together found some bloggers that are having some giveaways!

***

First is Amber at A Little Bit Biased. She has three new patterns she's debuting through her company Gigi's Thimble that you can see on her blog or through her etsy store. Beautiful quilts!

Second is Jandi at Jandi In Stitches. She just switched over to blogger from wordpress and is looking for people to check out her work.

Saturday's Work On Sunday

After I made those blocks, or more of AS I was making those blocks, I noticed that I had strips of scraps left over, but really no plan for them.

And then I thought about it. If I just stick these in a stash somewhere, I'll NEVER actually get around to using them... which sucks.

So, I made a quilt!

The only downside is that since I just used scraps (including the Kona white as a remnant), I don't actually have enough to finish this or anything for a backing. I'll have to work on that later.

Not too shabby for a last minute quilt!

Secondly, I decided to work on Marissa's Blanket. Here's where I'm at:
