Where has the time gone?

Having a new house tends to take over one's life. Add onto that the fact that the summer's ending and you're trying to fit another few days of vacation in and your usual Mom/Wife stuff and you don't have much time left for crafting.

I've managed to get into another craft - soap making. Yes, soap. Not just melt and pour either. . .oh no we're talking lye and fats and all that fun stuff. The first two from scratch didn't come out too well. The next was okay but the scent didn't seem to stick (it's still curing so we'll see). The most recent was made today and so far seems great. It's an oatmeal & honey soap. It smells and looks amazing so we'll see. I also made a pumpkin spice melt and pour that I can test tomorrow.

Not much new with sewing. I need to focus on that tomorrow and get some more done for an ongoing project for someone. I also need to build up inventory to see at various events.

For now...it's late and I'm sleepy.
