Sunday Reflection – August 13, 2017

Another edition of the Sunday Reflection. This week is all about sewing. I’m finally focusing on what I started this site for. The video update for this week is below with a list of the topics discussed below. Hope you enjoy!


Sewing Project Updates: Continuing to work on My First Quilt. The video series should start getting posted this week! Also hemmed a few pair of pants for my friend’s son, this was the first time I’ve done that and went through many struggles before I got it right. 


Upcoming Sewing Projects: Market Bags to use up the oilcloth I purchased by mistake. I’m making my mother a wonky 9 patch quilt for her birthday. I need to go get the fabric this week. I’m going to be making a t-shirt for Izaiah, this will involve making a pattern from a t-shit. I also want to make myself a pair of loungewear shorts. And finally I’ll be making myself some new curtains. 


Events of the week: Summer is over. The mornings are getting too cold for me to get out of bed! I hate waking up and being freezing. I’m canceling my cable and going with Hulu TV. It’s just all around better and I’m going to save so much money! I also dyed my hair, no more gray!

It’s been a few months since I moved into the basement and moved here with the primary intention of saving for a down payment and improving my financial position. I’ve made a lot of progress to that end and now I’m focusing on the second phase. I’m going to break this down into 3 components. These are the three areas of my financial plan to buy a house.

What do you do when you don’t know what to make for dinner? You make something that you eat all the time, always hits the spot and is easy to make. I need a list of staple recipes for these exact moments!

I uploaded a new YouTube video! I recorded this last week before I went to Bangor. I got excited and sat down to practice filming. This isn’t perfect and I didn’t bother replacing the audio from the camera with the lapel microphone. But here it is! Help me out my watching it and going and subscribing to my channel!

I did it. I uploaded my first video to YouTube. I don’t think it’s anything impressive but I bit the bullet and did it. I’ve included my first video in this post. There is a very high chance that the video will only be available on this post at some point in the very near future. haha!

For anybody that knows me, sewing is not something you would picture me doing. In fact I’m a little surprised myself that I got interested in this. But I needed something to occupy my time. With most other aspects of my life being virtual I needed something tangible that I could do with my hands. So after some strange occurrences a new passion is born.
