Nona's Sewing Diaries

It's now official. My blog is moving to WordPress.

http://missnonaeleanor.wordpress.com/

I have already posted a few posts. (Inculding a new project that I haven't said a word about here!) Go and read it and don't be afriad to comment! I do plan on keeping my old blog here at LiveJoural so people can still read my old posts here. I don't plan on transfering all of my posts to WordPress, but I may repost some older posts from here.

I also wanted to let everyone know to get Google reader. It is the BEST and it's SO EASY to add all of the blogs you read (of any kind)  in one place and it let's you know who has updated thier blog or not.

Check it out: http://www.google.com/reader/

Good Bye LiveJournal!

And yes, I do plan on still reading everyone's blogs still and I will comment!

I like the first four, but I can't deside if I want it in color or not....

Today, I wore my new white polo shirt and blue sweater that I got at Steve and Barry's a the weekend before last. My skirt is a skirt I made from the same pattern I used for the skirt I wore on Monday. The Pattern has six gores, but for this skirt, I split all six gores in half and did a 12 gored skirt. (It's accually one of my favorites skirts that I have made.) My stockings are blue with black stripes from Sock Dreams. My shoes are the same shoes I wore the other day from Khols. I also wore side combs in my hair this afternoon.

And then there is Buster, kept getting in the picture...

Today,  I wore a green stiped polo shirt and a dark green sweater with a hood from both Old Navy. I told you you'd see this skirt again some time this week! Here it is yet again, my favorite thifted skirt from the Gap. I also wore lime green stockings from Sock Deams.

I accually forgot aabout taking a picture until I was getting ready for bed then I remembered and I just did on in the mirror.

Today, wore a teal blue polo shirt from Old Navy and a thifted sand colored Sweater from Old Navy. (yeah, I shop at Old Navy as well as thift stores alot.) My skirt I am wearing I got from Chistopher & Banks on clearance last spring, for get this, $7.95, orginally a $30 skirt! (I love it! It's one of my favorites. I also got another skirt on clearance the same day that's smilar only it's shorter and a lighter color denim. This day was a day when Elisabeth and I went on a little shopping trip to the mall for books and desided to take a look at C&B. Elisabeth got the same two skirts on clearance that I did too!) The pink stockings I am wearing are "O Basics" from Sock Dreams and the shoes are very comfy and came from Payless.

So, today, I wore a green polo shirt and an olive green sweater, both from Old Navy. I wore a gored demim skirt that I made from Butterwick pattern # 4136. I also wore a pair of stockings from Sock Deams, "M Squared" and the same shoes I wore yesturday from Kohls.

Lately, if you come to my house, you'd be sure to find me sitting in my chair reading Twilight. *grins* I never want to put that book down! I accually finished Twilight yesturday afternoon and now I am reading New Moon. I can't believe how quickly the plot of the story changes!













Today, was quite intersting! It was "Clash Day" for homecoming week at school, but I desided to not take pictures of my increadbly clashy outfit and changed when I got home. (do you know how hard it is to clash on purpuose?)

I wore a thrifted button up collared shirt under my new green sweater from Steve and Barry's. I wore my favorite thifted demim skirt from the Gap. (Don't be surpirsed if you see it again later this week!)  I also wore one of my new pairs of stockings "O Chevrons" from Sock Dreams and my new shoes from Kohls.

WIFD accually started yesturday, but I kinda got distracted and forgot to post!

Here is what I wore yesturday. This is accually my dress I was going to wear for Senior pics, but I desided not to. I don't think I have posted any pics, but here it is! Sunday was accually the first day I had worn it since I made it, oh, how long ago? *laughs*



This week shall be interesting! It's accually home coming week at school, and so we get to dress up and have fun. I don't know if I'm going to post my silly school spirted outfits, but I'll try and post somthing!

Lissa tagged me for the "Six Randomnesses". I knew I was going to get tagged sooner or later! It's been going around the blogophere.  :P Here are the rules: Link to the person who tagged you, list the rules, write six random things about yourself, tag six-ish people by leaving comments on their blogs and let the person who tagged you know that you've written the post.

1. Today, I have pretty much nothing to do or anything, and I am sitting in my PJs and bathrobe. I think I'll sew, or maybe I'll bake somthing (I'm accually kinda in the cooking mood at the moment!) and probaby read. And maybe do a college app. or two. Oh, and hw, I got some pics I need to take for photography.

2. I have never ever been to a school dance, and this week I was asked to homecoming by my friend Zach! Mom, Ashley, Miss M  and I went shopping yesturday for dresses and I got a dress! It's blacka purple. My Daddy said he likes it. (Pics to come!)

3. I'm reading TWILIGHT!! Yes, I'm now on the dark side, I can't put the book down! I started reading Twilight the other day, and I am  little over half way done with it. I think I may finish it this weekend and start on the next!

4. I have had butterflies in my stomach all week. And it's mostly because of the last two things I just said. *blush*

5. I'm looking for a swing in a pretty park or somewhere that's a flat slat the the 30's pic I posted eariler this week. If any of ya know of any, let me know! I want to take some cool pics.

6.  Yesturday, in Eglish we played my favorite game we played in Drama 1; Bus stop! When it was my turn, I desided my charactor was a busy-body who had alot to do. I was like, "oh, I have alot of stuff I gotta do today. I gotta go to the park. And to the bank. And the Post Office. And the Libeary. And the Dry Cleaners...oh my, I have alot to do today!" And then the guy who was also at the bus stop was like "I like your socks" and I was like "Thanks! I got them in lots of colors like orange, and purple and red and green. Oh wait! I am wearing my green ones!" And then Maci came up and her charactor was really funny and everyone loved it!

People I tag. Wait; who is left to tag? Hm......
