Jodi, Jodi, Jodi............We really need to meet. We are directly across the Columbia River from each other.........she in Gresham, me in
Camas. I bet if I went out onto my front porch and yelled really loud, she might be able to hear me. Maybe she can see my red door.
Jodi has been one of those happy happy
bloggers. She'll send me emails with blogs I need to look at, she knows what I like.
She even gave me this award that I so graciously
absentmindedly ignored........thank you Jodi........really.
When you visit Jodi at
This That and The Other, you have a hard time pinning down her main talent. Is it sewing? Baking, crafting? She's a do it all kind of gal. Now I know who to go to when I need something sewn..........remember I don't sew.
She has me rethinking the plan to get rid of old sports tee's and jerseys........
This is so perfect and I can imagine any boy.......or girl for that matter.............LOVING it!
I think I'll start saving all my son's sports shirts and jerseys too...........like I'm going to wake up in about 10 yrs and suddenly make a quilt. You never know............but I may be rich enough by then to pay someone to do it...........maybe Jodi and I will be best friends by then and she'll do it for me???
She likes quilts...........she makes things like this that I never even knew could be made. :)
You know a girl who plays with this much fabric has got to have a killer studio.......sewing room........craft room.........whatever you call it........it's stunning.Don't you just want to go mess it up?
And if you're so easily impressed...........look at her "baking center"............baking center? Who has a baking center? Show off. .
My baking center would be filled with boxes from Betty Crocker. But I want one anyway so I can have that cute red gingham.........and that mixer............and that scale.Jodi, where's your canning center? I have one............where's yours?Yum.........those look pretty tasty don't they? I bet they're from Hood River.........just up the gorge from her.
She recently made 400 cupcakes for a friends wedding! 400! I'm sure it wasn't a big deal..........she has a baking center. :)
THIS is cool! Love the white chair with it. Those leaves are fabric. Miss Fancy Pants shows you how with a tutorial.Her idea was so good, it was published in this magazine! Isn't that awesome! I really am proud of her........even if I look a bit green.
Jodi has a little something for everyone! Go tell her how you found her.

There is not nearly enough chocolate in her baking center.
I love your blog!
Wow! So many great projects! I especially like that quilt; I've seen a ton of t-shirt/jersey quilts gone bad, but that one makes me wish I had a boy so I could make one!
I just got the BlogHerAds newsletter and clicked though to see your blog! This post made me laugh - and made me envious. An entire room for creating?! And a frickin' baking center?! Jodi needs to share some of that luscious extra space in her house withe me!
I love quilters. They are patient people; therefore, they can deal with me. =)
I too am jealous of her baking center. Hey I live not to far from either of you I am in Beaverton... So here is hat we do we invite ourselves over to Gresham so she can bake us some of those yummy cupcakes. :) LOL
Man, this has got me wishing I could undo my last drop off to Goodwill-a whole bunch of cool boy clothes gone. (Well, I guess I could buy them back?) Oh well, I don't sew so I guess it doesn't matter, I could whip up something clever with the hot glue gun and some staples. ;)
I like her. You can't be her new BFF, because she's mine, all mine. Hands OFF.
Yeaaaaaaaaaaa my girl Jodi in the house....I had wondered why u had never featured her! She is an Oregonian...Oregon girls are special IN A GOOD WAYYYY! cherry
She IS wonderful, isn't she? I love her blog, too and I'm so proud that I have her AUTOGRAPH on one of her published PROJECTS {!!}...and I'm glad I could contribute a tiny bit to her great grandmothers flower garden project ;o)
Greetings from over the pond,
Julia
P.S.: htanks for sharing all the goodies with us, Kim
P.P.S.: and the strangest thing...even she IS such a PERFECT and ORGANISED person I can't dislike her - far from it!!! She makes me want to be more perfect & organised, too ;o)
WOW...I love the craft room and the baking center! If only I could be that organized. My studio room looks like a tornado hit it...any organization tips anyone?
I have officially been Type-A shamed.
And that quilt is so cool. I had so many jerseys when I was little, and now they're all gone. I wish I had this quilt!
I have to go clean my kitchen now...
Another great pick.
I'm so glad you found her too- what great stuff she has! And that craft room and baking center... holy moly! :)
I LOVE Jodi's blog, she is super nice too and always leaves the best comments on my posts, very creative indeed!
Love your blog! Will be back later to do some more reading and clicking!
Have a great weekend, SITSa!
Thanks so much for sharing this blog! Looks like she has great stuff to share!
my cousin made a quilt of her moms favorite shirts after she passed. It is such a cool way to remember mom and help the kids remember grandma ... i wish i had the patience to make quilts. as for the baking center. Mine is complete with betty crocker in every color!
LOL
I'm so glad you finally featured her! I've been waiting.. and waiting.. and waiting.. lol
Jodi and I go wayyy back, and you have no idea how incredibly fun it was to read this post. It's like you were reading my mind!!
NOt only do I love everything that Jodi does, but I love everything that you do too. Thanks for the inspiration and for letting me lurk...although since I am posting a comment I am a lurker no more!
LOVE her craft room! And the chair decoration with the little felt leaves...swoon! :)
Yeah, you gotta hate everything about Jodi - organized, creative, baker. She probably has a killer clothes closet too! LOL!
So...Jodi...where's your FRIEND center!?! ;-) LOL! Jodi is awesome and everytime I go to her house I leave either feeling ashamed or inspired! She is so good at everything she does! Love you Jodi!
p.s. Her house is not a HUGE MANSION either...she really is just that organized and COOL
What a funny post!! And thanks for helping us appreciate yet another very creative person!
I love her craft room. She is awesome and so are you.
Cynthia
