I'm so good at blogging...

Okay, so clearly I'm not very good at keeping up with this thing. At all. Well time to start over. I'm trying to sew more and build my confidence to start selling some things. I've just finished 2 purses in the past few weeks.

The first is called The Tohoku Tote that I Am Momma - Hear Me Roar posted to her blog after the earthquakes in Japan happened. All she asked for the pattern and tutorial is that you make a donation of some sort to help out the people/animals of Japan. It was a great tutorial and super easy to follow. I love the end result.

Next was the Planning World Domination Handbag from Sky Turtle who is super sweet and responds to your questions so quick (as you can see from the comments... :) I love this purse and plan on modifying it to make it a little bigger...because I love big bags. Another easy and quick tutorial.

That's it for now.

Name Calling


After going back and forth with it for a while, I decided to finally create a blog. I had been putting it off for the mostly ridiculous reason that stillgonnashine was taken by someone that had registered it in 2004 and never used it. I have the day off and didn't really feel like getting out of my pajamas, so I gave starting a blog another shot. When I got to the name portion I had spent the better part of my morning yelling at our pug for her constant licking and refusal to take one of her pills. She came up to cuddle and gave me her best "but I didn't do anything wrong" face. So after calling her by her nickname, Lily Padily, the blog name was decided.

And yes, she's still pouting.
