Shout Out

Just a quick shout out to my sister who is starting her own Etsy store.  Check it out here.  She made me some napkins recently, wait maybe I should back up.   Why do we like cloth napkins?  Because we grew up that way. Our mom always used cloth napkins in the kitchen.  We have both carried on the trend in our own families.  Trying to shrink our carbon footprint a bit.  Check out the patterns I chose at Jo Ann fabrics.  Who knew that in a few stolen hours while our mom watched our children, that we would choose to go to Jo Ann.  I mean, we could have totally gone to a bar or something, but no, we are lame mature now and pick out fabric to make cloth napkins and save the earth.  I picked the fabics I liked, I paid, she sewed and shipped.  Team Work :)  TTFN!  and TGIALW.....................

I chose this pattern first.......

And then chose this to complement it

Throwback Thursday: Give a Hoot

Apologies for the low quality pic but I could not find any others (it says "I give a hoot!").  I have been waiting for about a year to get this shirt handed down to me from my sister.  I absolutely love it.  Actually, one of my students had it last year and I would tell her every time she wore it how much i loved it!  Then low and behold one day, my niece had it on in a picture! Score!  Then when my sister had a boy back in June, I began to plot when I would get this hand me down.  Well, its here and my daughter has worn it with pride (my own pride that is).  

If you haven't figured it out by now, today's throwback is to Woodsy Owl of Woodsy Owl Public Service Announcement (s). I'm pretty sure Woodsy and Winnie the Pooh are the same voice, right?

Give a Hoot, Don't Pollute!
