My computer STILL is not fixed, but I wanted to get a post in anyway. I do plan on doing SHOW AND TELL TUESDAY tomorrow, so please plan to right along with me! :)
Here are some fun things I found on Pinterest:
I like these rules for healthy living.
I sure wish I could knit!
Another amazing quilt by Faith.
I love this vintage quilt!
Cute and cozy for baby.

I hardly ever make New Year's Resolutions, simply because I don't keep them. I do, however, make goals, because without goals I tend to just think a lot about the things I want to do. Goals are, in a sense, resolutions without the pressure, you know?
In 2013 I have some things I want to do, craftwise.
***Make Aubry a rainbow quilt.
***Make t-shirt quilts for a couple of my kids. The shirts are all picked out and ready to go!
***Finish the double wedding ring quilt that I found at an antique store.
***Grow more confident in machine-quilting.
***Learn to crochet
***Make more things just for me.
***Finish Micah's ties and but out bowties.
***Develop my sewing classes.
***Make a quilt that I love, no matter how hard or how many tiny pieces are in it. A mini-quilt, maybe?
***Sew more for my handmade shop.
***Just sew more in general. It relaxes me.
That's it! I have that list on my desk so I can see it and not forget the direction that I want to go.
What about you? Any crafty goals for 2013?

***The changing colors. It's so very pretty by the riverwalk where I run in the mornings. It's looks like the light sparkles as it comes through the trees.
***Soup-making weather!
***Drinking coffee during the day.
***Hiking. It's not too hot and the scenery is too pretty.
***Apple crisp. Yum!
***Wearing sweaters once in a while. But still being able to wear flip-flops on some days.
***Snuggling under quilts in the morning.
What about you? What do you love about fall?

I am taking a photography class---again! In fact, it's the same one that I took a couple of years ago.
Back then I didn't take the time to do the homework, which is silly because taking pictures is quite hands-on, and if you don't practice, you won't improve, right?
Our teacher is a very talented photographer and gives us TONS of information each week. It's a bit overwhelming at times, but things seem to be soaking in better this time around. Maybe because it's all been presented to me before!
I am just curious about how you all take photos.
Do you keep your camera in Manual Mode, Av, Tv or Automatic? Or do you use a Point and Shoot?
Normally mine is in Av mode. But, I am upping it to Manual Mode (so many decisions!!!), at least for a while. It seems that White Balance is the thing I forget to check the most. Of course, once I take a blue or yellow picture, I am reminded to set it properly!
So, how do you take your pictures?
