I hate running out of thread. Especially at night when the stores are closed. Cole and I got up this morning and braved a thunderstorm so I could get some more. He found this he called it a fabric present. Had to have it because of the dogs. Lucky for him I had one...

Cha Cha Changes
Ok, after much thought I have decided to no longer offer jewelry on the ElisaLou site. It was a tough decision but I have found it getting increasingly harder and harder to keep up with both sides of the business. My true passion is textiles so the choice was easy. My plan is to now...
Rainy days and Mondays
Some much needed rain all day today. All good except for the muddy football practice tonight for Austin. Thanks for all the well wishes for my finger! It is sore but fine and I am having a good time grossing out all my sons friends. The other injury around here is my girl dog. This...
Discontinued fabric and an injury on the job

Home Life
I read this great quote today “The real measure of a home is how it restores you at the end of the day”. My home is chaotic, messy, and usually pretty loud. Being the only girl in a house full of boys sometimes takes it toll. Am I really the only one who cares if...

A naked Knight has invaded my sewing space. and… I love it when my customers put together cool desgins so I thought I might start featuring some here. This was the latest one I thought was pretty cool. A Kiwi swirls messenger bag with black gingham on the inside. Once again the...
In the house
the book below is now in. my. house. Can’t wait to dive in- last night I left the kids all waiting on the curb for the ice cream man (with my mom) and I slipped over to B&N for a few minutes of me time. Came home with the new O magazine (the Home one-...
