It's All About Me - Day One!


Day one is finally here!  I could hardly wait for this one because I know we're going to see some really cute things.  Don't forget to visit Madame Samm to check out the top three and to see all the prizes!  Here's today's schedule:

Tuesday, February 19

Just Let Me Quilt
Sunshine Quilting
Karen at That Other Blog
Grammie Q
Gracie Oliver Arts
Marjorie's Busy Corner
SnippetsNScraps
Sowing Stitches
Pigtales and Quilts
Stitchin'ByThe Lake   (Oops!  That's me!)

Yes, that's right - the very first day and I'm going to show what I did with this darling pattern.  Notice I said the pattern was darling.  I did not say the results were.  :)  When I first saw the pattern I was thrilled with the short, spiky hair cut - that's almost exactly like I wear my hair.  Especially when I first get up in the mornings.  So I added a little polyester batting for my hair.  Yes, my hair really is white.

But that body....well that's just not me.  Or that's not how I see myself.  With my blinders on.  I needed a few curves, rather large curves true, so I "tweaked" her figure.  And here's how she turned out!


My hair is whiter than my mother's was!  I inherited it from my grandmother.  And those upper body curves....they came from my grandmother too.  :(  I remember when I was a little girl and Grandma came to visit she IRONED her bras.  She had to...the cups were huge and they were cotton so you know how wrinkled they were when they came off the line!  Since I'm constantly going from the kitchen to the sewing room this version of me needed an apron to reflect that.  My pincushion is on my wrist and my thimble around my neck (that's a real thimble!) because there are always sewing things somewhere on me.  :)  And usually a few threads on my dress and in my hair.....

I wear reading glasses and always have them on one of those holder things so I added one here using gold thread to form the cords.

I'm constantly taking them off so I can see to walk around and putting them back on so I can see to stitch.  That's the only thing about getting older that I hate.  Well maybe not the only thing.  Those large upper body curves would be another thing I hate.

Now tell the truth - she looks just like me doesn't she?

Maybe I don't really want you to answer that question.  :)


Since my world has been pretty chaotic lately (I somehow had a  moment of insanity and went back to work after 9 years of retirement) and that chaos means I sometimes have a moment of forgetfulness I'll just say this.  I am definitely having a giveaway.  But I forget what I'm giving.  :)  However, if you're willing to take a chance just leave me a comment below and I'll throw your name in a hat.  Oh, and if you're a follower comment once but tell me you're a follower and I'll throw it in twice.  For the mystery prize.  Which will be something sewing related.  Probably fabric.  But definitely something about sewing. :)

P.S.  Check out these prizes at Sew We Quilt!

17 Pam said...

I love your hair, mine should be white but my hairdresser keeps it my original dusty blonde. I am quite forgetful too, that moment when you tear into a room only to stop and think " why am I in here".

18 Pam said...

I am a happy follower, if a tiny bit jealous of those "curves"

19 Julie said...

Thanks for the give away.
regards from Sweden.

27 InGa said...

I'm a new follower. :-)

28 Michele said...

Marlene your 'me' is just perfect. I love everything about her. If I would have been in this hop I would have had to make my 'me' with a lot less of those upper curves than the pattern. My birthfather's side of the family got the upper curves but unfortunately we all take after my mom's side. It would have been nice to get a bit form both sides. LOL I'm not retired but I too use a glasses chain for when I am sewing. It keeps me from putting my glasses down wherever and then not being able to find them.

29 Martha said...

As usual, I love your interpretation! I am one of your followers and have been since I started blogging. I love visiting your blog. This is just too cute!

30 Teatime Creations said...

37 Siouxzq64@gmail.com said...

Great Hair! I notice that most people have fessed up to being gray or going gray. Also love how you describe yourself. In my mind I still look like I did when I was 18. ;)

The fuzzy hair was a great idea and all the little details you added are just too cute...love it!

Oh, Marlene...I just love you and your "self" portrait. I thought about changing her shape too when I first saw her, but then I thought, "what the heck". I love the hair and the apron.

First, thank you for cheerleading the blog hop and getting all the ducks in a row with Madame Samm. I can't wait till tomorrow to see what the next group of participants will do.

2nd, I love how your interpreted the piece---the white hair, the glasses cord, etc.
I recently had eye surgery and HAVE to wear readers now as my vision capacity is now completely reversed from what the first 60 yrs of life were! Man, could I identify with your saying you have to constantly take them off and on!! Good that you included that in making her/your glasses.

118 Rosa said...

136 LJ said...

Marlene, you definitely went the extra mile to make your pattern look more like you. The hair was perfect though the jawline was too angular for your sweet face. Loved that you changed her body shape and added the extras (iron, thimble, glasses holder) to make her "you"!

I love how you edited the pattern.

Thanks for the give-a-away!

OH MY GOSH! Marlene, you're a complete hoot! You've got me grinning ear to ear. You know those fellas that get paid to draw caricatures of other people? Well, you've got their talents beat. Hands down. Love your 'ole gal who makes you look like you're about 30 or so. Thanks for the chuckles, and for your losing-my-mind giveaway. I haven't read such a fun post in a long time. No need to enter me in the draw. Just couldn't resist saying something.
