wanna-be-quilter

over the past few months i have unproductively been collecting/buying random quarter or half-yards of fabric to use for.... uhhh a quilt? so thats what i have begun tonight! cut the squares out tonight, moving the sewing machine to my nook in the near future, sew it up, and then have some nice professional quilter do their thing and make it pretty! this is one of those first time things so ill keep you updated... and hopefully there will be a finish product!

ill be honest... the quilt is just an excuse to you my gerber daisy rotary cutter... who doesnt love them?!? and here is the tentative outline for the quilt... creepy but im thinking i might need to stow it away for the future to use as my babies first quilt to play on... awwww! dont worry mom and dad, ill be saving it for the next decade!
again, i apologize for picture quality. i take most of them on my trust iphone but its not the best at lighting and such!

classy cobbler

went to my all time favorite jomamas coffee shop this morning in avila with the family then hit up avila valley barn and mom bought me some peaches and statas flowers for my room. thanks mom! then came home an cooked up some peach cobblerrrrrr!

you know youre in college when youre cobbler can fit in sandwitch tupperware after one "serving"...

b.t.w. its delicious!

thats my green apt!

hello and welcome to my new adorable townhouse!
i just keep moving up and up and up as the years go by!
im sooo lucky:)
freshmen year... horrible triple dorm room
sophomore year... nice and clean sterile on-campus apartment
junior year... fabulous green townhouse
with that said, the past few weeks have been full of moving in, decorating, "christening" parties, hanging with the roomies, and starting the quarter. were about a mile from campus and four blocks from downtown slo (i know... crazy spoiled right?) so those 50 cent coffees at uptown espresso and those froyo runs have already added up! but its the life... let me tell you!
heres a little peek into my new quarters...
my study corner
favorite piece of artwork
towel rack, or multipurpose hanger?
mi cama
terrible picture (sorry) but this was a little craft project.
made a few little jewelry holders!

p.s. i live with the three best girls ever (haley, abby, and rachel)! and i would never forget my mewy (mia) thats away for the quarter in spain but back with us in january! and to top it all off we have a two car garage, our own bathrooms, customized beer pong table, amazingly comfortable couch and living room, and my very own craft and shoe nook!

love love love love!
