1. I just registered for the 2011 Chicago Marathon!! AHHH! I had butterflies in my stomach while I was doing it. I still do... :)
2. I made matching adorable skirts and headbands for my St. Pattie's day 5K with my friend Ashley...here are some pics!

Headband- I may wear this to more than just St. Pattie's day races for luck...four leaf clovers can't hurt, right?? |

All in all, the skirts and the headbands took me about 6 hours to make. I just started sewing last year, and had taken an 8 month or so break from it, so it took me a long time to remember what the hell I had to do to make my machine work. But, I got it, and now Ashley and I have some kick ass gear to wear.
What is everyone else up to?
See you in Chicago!
ReplyDeleteIF (big if) I can get to the run will you make me these cute things? =)
ReplyDeleteOf course I will lady!
ReplyDeleteI'm also going to make a Packer's headband for the half...would you want one of those?
OH, disclaimer- I will need to know by the Monday before the weekend we run- since that is my day off and I will have time that day to sew. (March 14th)
