On Vox: Rain rain, go away…
Today I drove twenty minutes to Turlock in 40-50 MPH winds and pouring rain – and not to mention I took the back roads. It was HORRIBLE. Just my luck, the first day back to school and we have one of the biggest storms of the season. The walk from my car to the Bizzini hall is probably about a five minute walk. By the time I got to the classroom I was soaked. After an hour of class my freezing jeans finally started to dry, and my hair (which was covered by a hood, but still got wet) was turning into a frizzy mess.

On Vox: Happy New Year / All over the place
Christmas went well. Everyone came to our house to celebrate. I got lots of new clothes and a sewing machine! I have wanted a sewing machine for awhile now, so that was really exciting (and quite unexpected, too!). I have already made a few kitchen towels to practice sewing in a straight line, and to get used to the different stiches. My next project will be yoga pants and a yoga bag because I am taking a yoga class in the spring. All of the projects derived from Diana Rupp's new beginners book to sewing. I seriously don't know where I would be without this book. It is so easy to grasp the concepts and terms, and it is written in an interesting way.
