30 Day Photo Challenge: Day 15- Technology

I tried to do a picture portraying getting lost/trapped in the world of technology.  I used a free screensaver as the background. The background is not my work. It is borrowed from a screensaver. So anyway, I am obviously an internet user and it is cool that I can connect with people on the other side of the world.  I also have a cell phone but will not get a smart phone because I already feel way too attatched to my phone just from texting. In the medical aspect of technology, of course I am grateful for technology. Even photography has changed. I fell in love with the dark room and not spending hours in front of a computer using photoshop. A lot of the time I wish we could go back a couple decades to landlines and handwritten letters.  Ijust prefer a face-to-face interaction and I feel like real life gets pushed aside for the digital world. In the end I guess it's a love-hate relationship. Ugh!

30 Day Photo Challenge: Day 13- Written Words

I wanted my picture for today's challenge to be hand-written and not typed.  I think handwriting is so underrated because every one's is unique and telling.  I enjoy the convenience of typing, but I hope handwritten letters and cards are still a part of our lives because they are so personal.

Baby Hat, Bib and Booties

One of our friends at work is having a baby.  She was nice enough to invite me to her shower but sadly I work. I made some little baby gear to make up for it!




The fabric choice took me forever to pick but I finally settled on this one. It was a fun project that I will consider selling on etsy...after I finish all my holiday gift projects which will be taking most of my time now.

30 Day Photo Challenge: Day 11- Something Old

Last week my dad asked me if I could use these old sewing machine parts that belonged to my great-grandma (Nelly).  Of course they will not work on my machine because 1. they are super old and 2. They are for a Kenmore sewing machine and I have a Singer.  I took them anyways because I thought to myself, "Wow wouldn't it be super groovy and rad if I could somehow attach them to a bag or something amazing?!" So maybe that will happen, but today they are just an awesome picture :0) Oh and it's the first black and white photo I've done in my 30-day challenge.
