More about SB

Hey Everyone,
You know a bit about me but did you know that I knit? I have made a purse, wristband, working on a winter hat, belts, etc... Its a lot of fun.
I also sew. I sewed my own quilt. Maybe I will post a picture of it for you all to see. It is a big project when you take on a twin size quilt! It took almost a year to complete! I could have gotten it done much sooner but with school and all its difficult to squeeze extra time in.
I not only sew quilts, but I also make bags. I have made and decorated more than a dozen jean bags. I make them out of my mom's old jeans and sometimes I buy jeans for boys on sale real cheap and use them for making more bags (sorry boys) LOL! I just made a messenger bag yesterday and my friend came over and I helped her make one too. I like to be creative!
I know I told you what instruments I play but I didn't tell you what music. On Piano (which actually I only have a Casio Keyboard) I love playing Carol of the Bells! That is my FAVORITE song to play. Besides that I play Fur Elise, Starlight Waltz, Scene from Swan Lake, Chopsticks (a very fun song), and lots of others similar to those. I am currently trying to tackle the Pink Panther theme song! That is sooooo tricky! I read music quite well and can tell if I am playing something wrong. I teach myself music too. Like Amazing Grace, Twinkle Little Star, Jingle Bells, and Happy Birthday to you. I wish I could get music sheets for songs like A Thousand Miles, My Heart Will Go On, Getting Into You, and other songs I enjoy listening to.
Well I got to go now but I will be back!

Until Later,
SB
