Hi Everyone!
Sorry I've been so absent! Between traveling, being in meetings, finishing up the last week of classes, preparing for finals week, grading, and finishing up some sewing deadlines, I've been dying here. So, thanks for coming back to visit even though I've been gone and haven't gotten caught up with your blogs, too.
I have tons to post and share, but little time to sit down and organize photos. Soon!
In the meantime, check out this cute project and tutorial for lavender sachets. There are some links to some good resources, too. I have an idea for what I want to do this this.... I think I will try some. Love it. I love lavender, anyway!
If you are interested in this tutorial, hop on over to the Purl Bee and check it out!
Talk to you again soon! It may be spotty again for the rest of the week...finals week! (Yes, it will slow down a little after that, but not too much. I still have a lot going on, both personally and at work. Contrary to what a lot of people think, even though professors are not on contract after finals week and aren't getting paid, there are still graduate students who need help with theses and dissertations, research often keeps going, and there is much going on with the opening of a new autism center in town and the autism legislation. So, most of us work a lot during the summer uncompensated. This summer, I see myself working for free for a large chunk of it. For me, it's a trade off for the flexibility my job provides during the academic year.)
Until next time,
Mama Pea
It really bugs me that so many people assume professors get the summer off! At least ASC pays it's professors monthly so we don't have to worry about saving to get through the summer.
The sachets are really cute! I love lavender!

Missed you! I love sachets and need to make some more; have plenty of lavender and essential oils left over from the last ones. I made eye bags a couple of years ago for everyone in my yoga class...but I don't know where mine is! A good project to think about.
