Since the weather is dipping down at night in the 30's we have re-arranged our living room so we can use the fireplace at night to be nice and cozy. Nothing is better than watching movies by firelight.
When we moved I was able to finally moved my craft light somewhere so it would not be in the way. I am at peace with my living room arrangement. Trust me it has been a struggle it is strange shaped room. I am actually standing in a door way taking this picture. It is nice and cozy yet roomy. So this is where I embroider and knit, while I watch movies LIKE KUNG FU PANDA. Oh sorry I love that movie I have watched it I swear like 15 times. Although I have not watched it as much as I have watched Pride and Prejudice. I like watching movies I have seen before because they are comforting and I do not have to really pay attention. Any movie suggestions?
Recently I went to see Whip it and now I am hooked on Roller Derby stuff. I remember seeing Laverne and Shirley when they had to be in a Roller Derby and I have loved it sense then but it went away and now it has been revived so much that I rented Roller Girls season 1 on netflix. That is what made me make a shirt for myself with this Roller Gal on it. I think her name should be Deadly Daisy I have no idea why I just do. So when the other discs come I will wear my t-shirt while I watch it. The funny thing is that Brian is actually into the series as much as I am. I think that is why I love him to much he is just as silly as me.
So my review of my craft stand. I love it! It makes embroidering on T-Shirts so much easier because I can use both hand to help with the stretchy material. I have not been a fan of interfacing like others are. I think it is user error on my part but I like to go naked.
Now that I said it makes doing T-Shirts easier Brian already has two in mind and wants to me to start ASAP. So I am off to start a Robot Devil T-Shirt that is way over due. I made a Bender one awhile back you can see it here and after I made it I promised him a Robot Devil so you can see it has been awhile.
Have a nice weekend everyone.

I LOVE your shirt! I haven't got the chance to see Whip It yet, but I want to! About 6 years ago I was one of 3 girls out of about 130, that was accepted into the TXRD in Austin, during one of their try outs, but I was only in it for a minute, before they got the TV show. I was teaching, and they gave me an ultimatum of job or derby, so I had to quit, but have the heart for it! My name was Sheer Speed(since I was fast and I cut hair) :D
I LOVE DEADLY DAISEY! ROCKIN NAME! We should start a fantasy derby league:D Killer shirt, and I think you should stitch your derby name on it as well!
OH MY GOSH!! I can not believe you were actually in the league even for a minute so cool. They have a team in one of the larger cities here. I hope that maybe we could go see a game. They do the flat track not the slanted one. Still cool and fun.
Hmmm a fantasy league would be cool and fun.
I might stitch that name on. The hubs things I should.
Thanks for all the movie suggestions I can not wait to update the netflix list.
I REALLY wanted to be named Poison Ivy, but the name had been taken from the other league, which was a flat track league, at like roller rinks, but the TXRD had a banked track which is the slanted one, and WAY harder, especially on your ankles!
I can't wait to see your Deadly Daisy Shirt! You should wear it to a game!
I think I want to stitch me up a rockin derby girl with a name on it!!! :D
If you stitch up a shirt I would love to see it. When I finish mine I will post it.
