Ho-hum...

Well, because of random things happening, my 4th of July is not going as I planned... and my family is going to a rodeo and some kind of park or river or something. They'd like me to come along, but it sounds like torture to me! I hate rodeos (at least what I've seen on TV) and I don't like setting a weekend aside and driving for hours to look at pretty scenery - I can do that here!

Anyway, enough grumpiness. So my plan was to stay home and work on my albums... and then my wonderful mummy decided she wanted to stay home with me :-)

Earlier this week, I went to a quilt shop with Mom. I doooon't like craft shops, but she wanted company, and I like having her to myself. We wandered for awhile, and I saw a quilt pattern I liked, and told her that someday, I wanted to make a quilt. And you know what? She asked around and found the pattern, and told me to start picking out fabric. It took over an hour, but I had FUN!

So tomorrow, we're going to start it. I'm excited! It'll be for my new bed at college :-)
Speaking of college, we're leaving in five days or so to check it out. YAY!

Ooh, one more thing. I walked into a room at the quilt shop and was like...... HURRAY!
My favorite little pig in the world has become fabric!

Ha! That's funny!

I always wanted to make a quilt.
I'm more of a crocheting person I guess.
