Summer List (Cont.)


My Summer Dreams

1. Learn how to knit.
2. Learn how to use a sewing machine.
3. Make something by knitting or sewing.
4. Read a few books.
5. Visit church history sites.
6. Design a vintage photo session with models, props and authentic clothing. I'm VERY excited for this one.
7. Have a picnic with Morgan.
8. Go to the water park.
9. Buy a washing machine!
10. Continue writing my novel. 

Well, I haven't done as well as I would have liked...but I still have a little bit of time left. I'm thinking of taking a knitting class through my community education program...so stay tuned on that one. As for the sewing machine, not sure if that's going to work anytime soon. Anyone want to teach me??

I have been designing my photo session, but it's not complete yet. Here is the mood board I've created for it:

The washing machine thing didn't pan out, so for now we'll be using the coin-op laundromat in the basement next door. *sigh*


My novel...is back on the shelf while I finish up my photo sessions. I am so swamped right now it's kind of unreal. Don't get me wrong, I'm enjoying it...I just don't have time for much else. :)


I can't wait to make a Fall 2011 list! I'm SO excited for the holidays to start up again!

I'd like to learn to sew too, which is weird because I used to haate it. Pretty much cheated my way through sewing class in highschool, haha

Hey, on the knitting thing- look up blazing needles yarn shop in salt lake. They offer free beginning knitting, and I think I'm gonna try that in September. Wanna play? Check their class/event schedule online if you're interested!
