Avenue 40% Off!!

Here's another deal.  This one is from the Avenue which is mostly plus size clothing size 14 to 32.  Starting today you can get 40% off of almost everything.  It excludes clearance items.  This online deal is for today only but I'm not sure when the end date is for the in-store deal because it just says "Ends Soon".  So, hurry over to the Avenue and check out what they've got.  Enter coupon code AV91173 at checkout.  Let us know what great deals you snagged in the comments section.

Update:  I totally forgot to mention that you can go through ShopAtHome.com and score another 6% cash back.

A Sewing Extravaganza!!

I am so excited.  I've been working on making a skirt for a few days now.  For me, I don't always have time to sew until I put Riley down for a nap or for bedtime.  So, little by little is the key for me finishing anything.  Anyways, I absolutely love sewing.  It really is pretty awesome seeing the end result of what project you've been working on.  Just so you know, I don't have any experience sewing.  I am trying to help my niece realize how easy it is but you have to start at the beginning and work through the project little by little.  It always seems like a daunting task to take on a project when you haven't even started doing anything.  So, hopefully, she'll find enough confidence in herself to start a sewing project and complete it.  I'll post pictures of the skirt hopefully by Friday. 

Oh, don't forget.  Go check out the giveaway for the $35 gift certificate to Marie Madeline Studio.  When you comment, let them know that I referred you.  Thanks.
