It's good for a first attempt - I'll have to adopt some of your refinements for the next ones.Colettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16562242552148150493noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1673736213160843245.post-84161445506788702462010-02-02T03:58:43.795-06:002010-02-02T03:58:43.795-06:00I'm sorry, but I don't think you can truth...I'm sorry, but I don't think you can truthfully claim the title of <i>Couch Potato</i> with as much activity as you have obviously stirred up. However, given the level of cuteness you've created, I s'pose I can forgive and let you borrow the title, if you really want to. :-)<br /><br />Those are absolutely adorable and I wish I could get my sewing machine to make even one stitch. When I had my treadle sewing machine, I sewed alla' time. Now, I have a machine that makes a k-jillian stitches and I can't get the silly thing in <i>Drive</i>. *sigh*<br /><br />We haven't had any TV reception for the last seven months and I kinda' miss it.

I'm doing the same thing as far as cleaning out stuff. A good time to do it. I think we may put our place on the market in Spring - see if it sells.<br /><br />I love, love, love the monkeys!

Although it sounds as if you're pretty busy for a couch potato. I was on bed rest with my first pregnancy and noticed rather quickly that there's not much on t.v.

Now, if that had been me, I'm pretty sure I would be the best driver EVER to make sure I didn't attract any police attention.

One of the reasons I don't open an ETSY shop is that I put the stuff in my store and It always annoys me to go on ETSY and find something I like only to find that it is out of stock. I sew pretty fast, but don't know that I could keep up with two venues to sell from. The small monkeys are going for $15 and the leggy and fat ones for $20, The fat ones are cuddlier and made froms the men's socks. My Gavin has one and I hear from his aunt that he takes it for sleepovers at her house.My Layla started the monkey craze and will have a whole harem before it is all said and done.

I taught myself how to sew when I was about 9 making doll clothes. When I had to take sewing in middle school, I already knew how to do everything that was being taught so I sort of turned into the teacher's assistant. I made quite a few of my own clothes in high school and college.<br /><br />Your sock monkeys are so cute. I'm going to try and teach my grandgirls how to sew this summer now that I have my sewing machine back from my sister. She finally got a new one.ellen abbotthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00535475792150335186noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1673736213160843245.post-76508259520492452012010-01-29T08:36:45.079-06:002010-01-29T08:36:45.079-06:00OK, I see a new business here for Kathy, ONLINE sa...OK, I see a new business here for Kathy, ONLINE sales!
