Time Fly's When?

Wow, has it really been four months since I posted my first message to this blog?   Time really fly's by when your having .... fun?

Not Fun:  To start off the New Year, I slipped on my front porch steps and broke my ankle in three places.  Nice way to begin the year, right!  It took me awhile before I could find a comfortable place (and position) to work in.  Weeks flew by but during the moment, the day's seemed to be going by at a snails pace.
As the days' turned into weeks, my desire to craft sweltered to a exploding level and I couldn't tolerate it any more.  You see my craft room is upstairs, so I sent my DH up to start fetching me this and that.  Now with that being said, he seemed at a loss to find what I was sending him up to fetch and his patience was growing thin.  So I started ordering things, not big things but those things I knew I didn't have but needed for this craft, and a few little things to embellish with that I knew I had tons of up-stairs...albeit, out of reach.

Fun,Fun,Fun:  Finally my supplies arrived and I was settled in and started making albums. I did finish my first little mini that I started back in my last post. But I don't have it here right now to share... and darn me-- I forgot to take photo's before it left.  But it will be back as it is getting some updated photo's added to it.  I"ll share it when it arrives home.
Meanwhile,  I have a confession to make.... I'm in LOVE !!!  Yep, I"m in Love with this new craft.  I've now finished two albums and have several more in the works.  I'll be sharing photo's soon, and Oh Yes, Time does fly, WHEN... your having fun!

Welcome to Squeakie Doodle's

Hello, and Welcome to my blog.

Your probably wondering where the title "Squeakie Doodle's" came from...
It's kind of a long story, but to narrow it down... When I was a child and I doodled a lot in art, always drawing on every pc. of paper I could get my hands on.  Apparently I also talked a lot.  I don't remember talking a lot but apparently my dad thought so - so he called me "Squeakie Doodle".

It's funny, as I am not a talker now - and prefer to remain relatively quiet in my own little world of crafting, sewing and enjoying my pets.  But I do tend to find myself rambling along when I write emails or post to my blogs at times.

I have another blog called "The Grateful Stitcher" - dedicated mostly to quilting, machine embroidery and my own personal hobbies in the fiber world and I have a Wix website called " D.Zine Works ", which is dedicated to mostly my digital work and my love of making things for dogs and cats.  It's a kind of storefront of sorts, but I still hope to add some cute pet related gift baskets, embroidered pillows and beds, and of course, some mini-albums. Which is why this blog was born.

I have had an interest for some time in making some mini albums for my own pets and so recently I set out acquiring supplies to get started.  I've made some quick practice runs of which I'm very pleased, and am ready to start making the actual albums.  Learning something new takes time and a lot of thought, so it's been a slow process getting my first Mini completed.  I had so many idea's (to many) that at first it just became overwhelming.
Finally I settled on making a small wallet size mini - and I'll share more on it when I get it finished and photo's taken.

And that's about all for now.  Have a wonderful day!
