#OurProject52 – Eyes

By Andrea | February 12, 2015 |

The theme for this week’s #OurProject52 challenge is Eyes. I love photos of eyes. As much of a cliche as it is, eyes are the windows to the soul.  They are what give you a glimpse into a person’s thoughts and feelings. Unfortunately, eyes are not on of my strong points when taking photos. I…

#OurProject52 – Guilty Pleasure

By Andrea | January 22, 2015 |

I thought long and hard about this week’s topic for #OurProject52. A guilty pleasure is something that you enjoy, but also feel guilty about. For a lot of people this is something like eating junk food, but I decided a long time ago that I wouldn’t feel guilty about eating what I enjoy. For me,…

Project 52 – Not a Morning Person

By Andrea | January 15, 2015 |

This week’s Project 52 theme is morning. And let me tell you how much I hate mornings- especially weekday mornings.  Mornings are the time of day that you have to get out of a nice warm bed and get ready to go to work. My biggest problem with the morning is probably that it doesn’t…

Outside My Window

By Andrea | July 1, 2013 |

Today is Day #1 of the July Photo-a-Day Challenge from The Idea Room.  Today’s challenge is “out my window”.  It happens to have been pouring rain all morning, so today’s photo is a shot of a sad and lonely tree against the grey sky out my back widow at the office. It’s not the prettiest…

Rain

By Andrea | February 26, 2013 |

Today I got up, so excited for the day.  There isn’t anything special going on, per say, but I did finish a hacked version of my Linda Skirt last night (it’s the one I made to go with my Bombshell Bodice), and I wanted to wear it to take some photos.  You know me.  I…

Grama’s Quilt

By Andrea | September 26, 2012 |

Even though my first “official” quilt was the one that I made for my sister’s wedding gift, I did have another project before then.  I made 9 quilt photo quilt blocks a wall hanging.  The blocks each contained family photos of my grama and her family.  After I finished the blocks, my mom and uncle…

Open Class Photos

By Andrea | July 6, 2012 |

Each year the Gibson County Extension Homemakers sponsors the Gibson County Fair Open Class Exhibits.  This year I have a photo for every one of the photo categories – one of the many pluses of documenting everything I do for my blog. I have two nature photos, one black and white and one color. I…

My Funny Bone Still Hurts

By Andrea | March 13, 2012 |

Last weekend (March 9th, 10th and 11th) was the Gibson County Theatre Company’s production of The Foreigner.  As a member of the board, even though I wasn’t acting or a member of the production team, the show’s director (and our fearless leader) Fred, kept me busy.  I did (almost) all the artwork and marketing for…
