This felt valentine is taking me ages - I'm sewing the tree on, and each branch is sewn on individually. I am happy with how it's coming along so far! So that's a plus at least.

Well, no. but Shush. I'm taking a break, whenever I'm on here. I'm making a felt valentine for a character in a book. I swear that I'm in Upper Division Classes. [lol] Haha!

She managed to explain it in a way that no one else has ever tried to explain it, but next week will be the 50$ a week, as I'll only see her for an hour a day twice a week. (If that even makes sense.)



yep, two hours for $50
i am happy she is working out so well.
that was such a good deal today.
i like people like that!

Yeah, and it seems like she really does care about having it make sense to me, and finding a way that works for me. :] [boogie]

Thanks keeping on me to contact her and to make this work. :] [hug]

i just figured having a 'hands on' experience would help.
[hug]

And that's when I would use felt glue, hahaha. I have no patience.
Tutoring went well, and I just had a nice cup of cocoa. I volunteered to sub tomorrow. Not sure why I did that, but it's only a half day, so it should be okay.

Yeah, it really does help - I think I just got so caught up in the whole frustration of it, all that I didn't step back and realize that I need to try a different approach and asking for help isn't bad. [hug] Especially with it being such a visual language, it doesn't make sense to me now, to read about how to do something when I should be taking a hands on approach. :)
You mean a lot to me too. [hug]

For me, I want the detail of the stitches though, so glue wouldn't give me that aspect. >.<
That's good to hear that it went well. Yum cocoa!
Awww, it means money, yeah? So that's a plus there, for sure. Do you know what age you'll be subbing for?

Oh, I am getting bits and pieces done though, it's just taking me forever. The book is Push, by Sapphire. (not sure if I spelled her name right. [sweat]) It's for my Women as Agents of Change class.

oh, i think i have only watched once today
thanks for the link!
love ya, too
did you see the potato chip eating squirrels?

nemo.love_22 02-12-2014 03:06 AM

I've changed the idea - kind of - this is what I have cut out so far - the only thing sewn on is most of the branches - minus one - that I'm sewing on now, and the grass at the bottom.


I'm not really totally positive I'll be keeping the hearts on the tree, but we'll see what happens there. I may just do green leaves for that. Possibly.

Totally true. The stitches are awesome. And cocoa is yummy yummy.
It's band, so...everything from 9th-12th? Hahaha. I don't really like band. It's always huge and loud, and there is nothing for me to teach. I really like ACTUALLY teaching, not just sitting there and staring at the kids. But I want this new sub coordinator to think of me as helpful and reliable so that maybe she's open to me molding her a little bit. I taught her how to read the schedules properly today. Haha. And she let me go home early after I had volunteered. SO it may work to my advantage.

Yeah, plus it gives me something to do, so it works out. I may have to get some hot cocoa when I go to the cafeteria tonight. :)
Ah, I can understand that, but oh, sweet! Yeah, sounds like maybe you can work it to your advantage. :)

Thank you!! :) The branches are turning out way better than I thought they would... only complaint is that each one is individually stitched on... so they do take a bit of time. LOL. I think I'm done with the right side now. :P The one that doesn't look stitched on in the pic - I just finished stitching on, now to figure out placement of branches on the other side, but keep them from messing with the clouds too much. :P

Velvet 02-12-2014 03:17 AM

Nemo, it looks cute so far!

nemo.love_22 02-12-2014 03:17 AM

Thank you Velvet! :]

steelmagghia 02-12-2014 03:17 AM

Haha, yeah.
You really have some lovely, very even stitches. I'm quite impressed. I can sew, but it's never that pretty. I'm impatient.

Let me know how it goes. :)

Thank you! :) I've had lots of practice. :) And it's worth the annoyance at times if it turns out well. :)

You're very welcome. :) I can't sew at all.. Wish I could, but never took the time to learn it.

It does take time, and patience. That's for sure. :)

steelmagghia 02-12-2014 03:28 AM

So, it snowed this morning. My cat's water bowls are frozen over and I'm going to have to go out there and melt them all tonight. And it's going to be 70 degrees on Thursday. [stare] What is this crap?

Amane 02-12-2014 03:32 AM

That does it! Why do I laugh at EVERYTHING this man does?

nemo.love_22 02-12-2014 03:33 AM

That's so weird, Mag!! O.o Strange weather!!
