I Promise I'm Not Dead!

Hey guys! I'm sooooo sorry I haven't posted or put out a podcast....everyone was so sweet to check on me! I have just been super slowed down by this ding-dong broken leg. My laptop had to be sent off for some warranty work and the other computer is upstairs so I haven't been able to record or do anything internetty. I got my laptop back yesterday, so I will have a new episode recorded tonight before I go to bed--I PROMISE! I have lots to talk about and no notes....so it might be a doozy! I may have 43 kazillion emails in my inbox that I haven't been able to check. Yahoo and gmail are blocked websites at work so I couldn't even sneak in a check there. Oh yeah--those few days off I thought I might get for a broken leg...no such luck. Not really....I wanted to be at work. I love my job!

So I'll check in with you tonight! I've missed everyone! Love y'all!

How's this for a trip?!?!

Y'all will never believe what I did this morning?!?! I fell taking the dogs out and BROKE MY DANG LEG! Can you believe that? I have never been accused of being graceful and I guess it is a good thing. I will tell y'all all about it on the podcast. Looks like I may be off a day or two and can probably get another episode out soon....LOL! Thanks to everyone who has listened and left me such sweet comments. Y'all really do know to make a girl feel special!

Take care and we'll visit soon!

Episode 3

Hey guys! I finally got episode three recorded...yay! Lots of good stuff this week...plus a contest! WAHOO!

Just Some Fabric Scrumptiousness! Had to Share!

I just had to share this picture of some of my latest fat quarter purchases!  I think fat quarters are like kittens.....they are way more fun if you have a bunch of them!  Do you think there is a 12-step program for fat quarters or notions?  I might need one for sewing machines too!

Here's my new hunky strong German man.....I'm taking suggestions on what his name should be.....y'all help me name him!

Good night my lovelies!  I hope to record another episode this weekend....I'm going to try to be more organized!  To everyone who has sent me an email or left me a comment, I am trying to get caught up on my emails---my new job has less internet time than the old one did, so I'm going to get caught up this weekend.  I promise!  Y'all are the best!  Hope everyone has a wonderful and safe weekend!  See you at church on Sunday!

Silly Chick Designs-Episode 2

Yay! I made it back for a second episode! I hope y'all like it! Lot's of good quilting talk going on here!

HALLELUJIAH!!!!

I know you're not ready for all of this excitement folks, but my podcast is officially listed on itunes......FINALLY! Yay! I haven't been complimentary of itunes, but I have to say that most of what was wrong was my fault. I would like to say thanks to all my quilting blogging sisters that didn't give up on me! I hope to have a new episode out this week. I'm told that subsequent episodes don't take nearly as long to post.

Quick question--I saw on Mark Lipinski's blog that he is going to be putting out a DAILY podcast...has anyone heard anything about that? I searched for it on itunes but couldn't find it--maybe he hasn't started. I know there have been many changes for him recently.

Check out my poll--I'm getting ready to do another tutorial. Let me know what you want to see!

Toodles,

Okay. Podcast still isn't working, but I think I'm close to having it fixed. If you'd like to go to blip.tv and listen directly you can do that at http://www.blip.tv/file/3124378 or if you want there is another way...I think this will work.

Open itunes, and click on the podcast tab on the upper left. Then click on the advanced tab at the top. Right click on "subscribe to podcast" and then when it opens a box asking for the URL feed you can cut and paste and put this http://sillychickdesigns.blip.tv/rss/itunes and that should work. I was able to make it work and download it to my ipod.

Thanks to Darlene at Scientific Quilter for being so helpful! I hope to have all of my technical difficulties worked out in the next couple of days and another episode recorded soon. I already have lots to talk about!

Thanks for your patience!
