Man you must all think my life is pretty boring...and actually that is half the truth right now. :)
Here are a few things that are going on or coming up in my world.
I'm sick...not just a little cold. No like legit sick and it stinks! I'm on my 2nd day home from school.
I've been getting more and more instagram followers recently. Thanks to all my bloggy friends who have found me!
Spring has been here for a little while...and then I found out we are supposed to get 8-10 inches of snow today. :(
Next weekend, my youth group is headed to a youth conference!! This will be our first one since July - so excited!
I caved and got a snapchat...it's interesting and I still don't really use it much, but it can be fun.
There are only 6 weeks of school left!!! WOW! Crazy how time flies when you're having fun...yes school is usually fun.
I've got some DIY projects in my head, and I'm really excited to see how they turn out. Remember, I'm not that artsy.
There's a few random things about my life recently! What's new in your life?

Embroidering
So I have been working on embroidering a new towel. This past Christmas, I got quite a few towels from my Aunt and Grandma. Then, my mom surprised me with a TON of different thread colors and patterns.
These patterns, you iron onto the towel and follow the lines with your thread in your chosen color. So here's some pictures of the steps.

| You can iron the towel before you iron the pattern onto it if you choose. It's completely optional. This time I skipped that part. |
| After that, you choose and cut out your pattern. Make sure you pin the pattern down or it can slip very easily and it won't turn out very well. |
| This is the pattern on the towel. It says: "Love begins at Home". I thought it would be perfect since we just moved into a new house. |
This is a small glass box that I've had forever. I've used it for many different things, but now it sits on my dresser filled with threads, extra needles, and sewing scissors.
Hope this helped!
