Zoe has started another challenge!

"Self Stitched September"

I, Brenda ,www.wiltedmagnolia.blogspot.com, sign up as a participant of Self-Stitched-September. I endeavor to wear one handmade and/or refashioned item of clothing,accessories or jewelery every day for the duration of September 2010'.

I couldn't do the May one, so we'll see if I can fit this one in! I work at home during the day (read that as comfy sweats/t shirt/pj's) and wear a uniform at work, so it will be a challenge to get me out of my "pj's at home" rut! And we're not talking about a glamorous life at home! There's dogs and cats and work outside, sewing for my shop, packing/shipping for Ebay, truffling around in flea markets for treasures....you get the picture!

Auction Night!

It's been a few years since I went to an auction, so Monday night I drove an hour to this one!

The only thing I bought was strawberry shortcake, but I met a new friend and had so much fun people watching.

The gentleman in the blue shirt went through every little thing in there!

I did bid on a pretty little needlepoint framed piece, but the nice little lady in the front row was a vicious bidder and had to have it! LOL Her husband and I did have an interesting conversation on Wagner Ware, so it wasn't a total loss!

The "girls" are home!

The Guinevere sisters are home from their photo shoot in Dallas!
They had a fabulous time and would have liked to stay longer, but they came home with some amazing photos!

They visited the famous "Dallas" TV show house!

They visited the parks.

And the skirts were having such a nice relaxing day, they refused to come home at all! Can't say that I blame them!

Guinevere is traveling to Texas!

There comes a point in life where you realize....you know nothing about something! My something has turned out to be taking great photographs!

So my babies have been shipped to Texas for a professional photo shoot to Chateau Amour Photography Studio.

Is this how Mother's feel when their kids go off to college? I know they'll come back home, but I'm a little freaked that they are gone!

On the other hand...I'm so excited to see the photos!!! Can't wait! I know they will be FABULOUS!
