<br />
I can't believe that it's been nearly a year since my last post....well maybe I can....it happens. I hope you've been keeping up with us over on Instagram and Facebook! I have expanded my Instagram into a handful of feeds to focus on each area of what we have going on. <br />
<br />
@rjmcgough is mainly focused on my family including Cora McGough our puppy, our property and the things we do day to day.<br />

<br /></div>
@handmadeu is mainly focused on what crafty things I'm up to, mostly baby things right now with our upcoming adoption less than 2 months away! More about that later! Also this is the main feed for all the upcoming retreats and adventures at the Red Barn. <br />

<br />
<br />
@handmadeufit is focused on encouragement to live a healthy life, whatever that means for me on a given day. Perhaps it's the Yoga challenge I'm doing now, or the Superfood Healthy program we use, or just encouragement with a post of our BARN....all feeds have the Barn creep in, it's just a big part of our lives.<br />

@modernstitchcon is a new feed I'm building slowly. I love everything about stitching and want to create a space to focus on all the amazing stitchers out there. I don't think they get enough love. I also have some plans of patterns and projects for this...more to come.<br />

We have our Upcoming Semester of Handmade U coming this June! Check out all the details <a href="http://handmadeu.blogspot.com/p/if-you-are-interested-in-joining-in-on.html">HERE</a> and let me know if you want to be here for our One and Only semester in 2018! Also you'll be one of the first gals to meet our little babe. We are thrilled for her to be a part of this special semester! Lori Sparkly Franklin and Kelli May-Krenz are the amazing teachers who's projects are going to blow us away. I can't wait.<br />
<br />
I know many of you loved the Handmade U Online Course Zipper Pouch 101! I so enjoyed making it for you and loved seeing what you all made! I had so many ideas for a second course that was to elevate your ZP game that I started right away making videos! I even had a teaser video out there sometime last year! But then life got busy with other things and those 6 or 7 last videos just hovered over my head for months. <br />
<br />
However good news is now here!! Since we are less than 2 months away from being new parents with our hands so full, and are our hearts even fuller, I felt like it was time to get this thing DONE!! So I worked last week to finish the videos, and began SLOWLY uploading them. Our internet is painfully slow in this department, but I just did one at a time, baby steps as you'd say. And sure enough they are now loaded, on the class page on my website, and ready for you to jump in!!<br />
<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<br />
I'd love it if you've taken Zipper Pouch 101 to give 102 a try!! If you haven't taken 101, I'd highly recommend it! I'll even add an option for 101+102 as a special price so you can have the whole shebang!<br />
<br />
Stop over to my <a href="https://www.etsy.com/shop/ShopHandmadeU?ref=l2-shopheader-name">etsy shop</a> and join in now!! You may even find a fun kit or two for St Patty's day or for Spring that you'd enjoy too.<br />
<br />
I can't wait to see what you create! I'm cheering you on! Tag me @handmadeu or #HUZipper102 when sharing your pouches! <br />
<br />
<br />
Glad to be back, so sorry I was gone so long! How have you been?? Leave me a comment below and let me know you're still here!<br />
<br />
Happy Creating,<br />
<br />

<br />
For those of you that know us, or have been following the blog, you know we have been on a long journey to start a family. Years of infertility treatments and procedures, and now for the last 6 months or so we have focused solely on adoption as the way we are going to grow our family.<br />
<br />
The last two months have been full of home study visits, video production on our little family profile which will be online soon, and writing stories of our lives, family, values, etc that will be combined with 100 or so photos to create a written family profile that will be shown to birth mothers as they set out to choose the family that will adopt their child.<br />
<br />
The written profile should be completed in the next week or so, our agency is reviewing the home study we had done locally, and then we will be ready and just waiting for our baby! After we are active it could be a day, or a year + before we are matched!! Of course we are hoping on the sooner end of things :)<br />

In the meantime our good friend Jennifer Allred (our teacher for the Spring Semester of Handmade U) has generously donated her time and fundraising talents (she does great things for JDRF!) to host an incredible adoption auction on Instagram this week!! Please head over there and follow @handmadeubaby_auction to see all the amazing items that this amazing maker and IG community has offered to our fund!<br />
<br />
The world of makers, artists, family, and friends that I am honored to be a part of is incredible. Jen sent out a request to see if anyone wanted to participate and the outpouring of help and excitement has been crazy good. This baby of ours is going to have so many people rooting for him/her, what a lucky little one.<br />

More info coming soon!! Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4292694534925821497.post-19583501355970788272017-01-29T17:25:00.001-06:002017-01-29T17:25:41.022-06:00My One Little Word - Word of the Year : LEARNHi -<br />
<br />
Have you all picked your Word of the Year, or One Little Word?? Some of you probably started this process at the end of last year and got started Jan 1 right? Or are you with me in feeling I'm behind in getting this year started? Feb 1 is feeling more reasonable to kick off the year for me. <br />
<br />
I did choose LEARN as my word. There are so many things I want to learn and all that is stopping me is not taking the first step and doing it. I figured I'd make a list of all my online courses I still have access to and pick one to get started on. <br />
<br />
However as the year began I felt compelled to turn LEARN a bit on its side and incorporate in TEACH. I was having so much FUN with my zipper pouches and others were commenting they wished they knew how to make them too. So I decided to create the Zipper Pouch 101 online course. I didn't realize how much I would truly LOVE seeing all my sewing students' completed pouches and the "in process" pictures they are sharing! So proud and filled with admiration for those who even while scared, picked up their zippers and started sewing! They did it!! I haven't had one person yet FAIL, and I don't think I will. You can join us in this fun easy to follow video class by purchasing the class <a href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/490997062/zipper-pouch-101-learn-with-handmade-u?ref=shop_home_feat_2">HERE</a>! Check out all the fun vintage kits too!<br />

<br />
I still am focused on my word LEARN, however I think it will be cuddling up with TEACH hand in hand for the year. I will be sharing opportunities for you all to LEARN too!<br />
<br />
I have enjoyed seeing the Special Word Cuffs that people have made from my Brave Girls' University course, and have decided I'll be posting a new course soon. The course will be a manageable sewing course that you can enjoy learning one Quilt Block a month for the year! At the end of the year you will have a wonderful Sampler Quilt to put together and have quilted. Throughout the year if you love one block I'll show you how you can create an entire quilt with that one block. Anyone out there that has a desire to create their own quilt to pass down through generations, but never believed they could, this course will be for you!!<br />
<br />
This is the first block I'll be teaching! It's called the Jacob's Ladder block. A classic.<br />

<br />
Is it too late to still say that?!? I fell off the blogging train at the end of last year with the holidays, the new year, and trying to catch up from it all! Are you caught up yet?! Anyone else still have a dying tree in their living room waiting to come down?!<br />
<br />
<br />
The silver lining is that I've been busy finishing up the highly anticipated first Sewing Online Course in my Learn with Handmade U series!! The first class is dear to my heart because I've been obsessed with whipping out <a href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/490997062/zipper-pouch-101-learn-with-handmade-u?ref=shop_home_feat_2">Zipper Pouches</a> like crazy the last couple months.<br />
<br />

<br />
Since we have our Home Study paperwork in and are starting that process, the Adoption is becoming more real each day, so it always pushes me to be a little more nimble with the sewing machine in hopes of growing our Adoption Fund!! Thanks so much to all of you that have contributed by purchasing items from my little <a href="https://www.etsy.com/shop/ShopHandmadeU?ref=hdr_shop_menu">ShopHandmadeU</a> shop on Etsy! It is so appreciate and all adds up! <br />
<br />
Also thanks to those that share my shop with others who might be in the market for some fun handmade items. During the holiday market I participated in last month, one customer commented that my shop looks very COZY! I LOVED that. Cozy is the name of the game during this COLD January in Nebraska!<br />
<br />
So back to the topic at hand.... <a href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/490997062/zipper-pouch-101-learn-with-handmade-u?ref=shop_home_feat_2">ZIPPER POUCHES.</a> If you LOVE Zipper Pouches like I do, and really want to customize yours to the perfect size or special fabric you have, NOW is the time to learn. I just released my Zipper Pouch 101 course online and it is a SIMPLE and QUICK way to make the perfect pouch! You do NOT need a ZIPPER FOOT!! I had been afraid of zippers for FAR too long, with no desire to switch out feet on my trusty sewing machine, so I just bought pouches that weren't totally ME, and dreamt of the day that I would be able to skillfully throw a zipper in a bag! Finally I decided that there was no time like the present and really how hard could it be?!? So I researched all the various ways of making a zipper pouch, picked and chose the little techniques here and there that were easy, simple, quick, and worked for me. I combined them all together to create this <a href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/490997062/zipper-pouch-101-learn-with-handmade-u?ref=shop_home_feat_2">Zipper Pouch 101</a> course for you! <br />

Hi All -</div>

<div style="margin: 0px;">
I just finished a Holiday Market with Kelli last weekend. She had a beautiful display of Jewelry, all handmade, with wonderfully curated beads, metals, and more. I came home with a very cool pair of earrings that will be perfect for the Holidays.</div>

<br />
I've been pre-occupied with all the SNOW coming down today! I wasn't expecting it and planned to rake leaves (I know a little bit late!) now we have piles of snow covered leaves around the yard. Hoping for a quick warm up before more on the way later this week!<br />
<br />
If you are in the mood for a really amazing piece of jewelry on your Wish List here is a shop with some really special Handmade items!<br />
<br />
Manon Doyle of <a href="https://www.etsy.com/shop/sistersofthesun/items">Sister of the Sun</a> creates one of a kind beautiful pieces from most turquoise, which I love! The stones she finds are amazing and what she does with them is even better!<br />
<br />
Take a peek at her shop full of treats sure to make your wish list, or a gift item for one of your favorite people.<br />

<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;">On the Second Day of Shopping Handmade I'd like to introduce you to Lisa McKenney of <a href="https://www.etsy.com/shop/LoveSquaredDesigns?ref=ss_profile">Love Squared Design</a>s. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "times", "times new roman", serif;">Lisa is such a loving and giving person. She has once again teamed up with fellow friend and artist Stephanie Ackerman to put together a gift package that not only is beautiful to give to a friend (or yourself) but a portion of the proceeds goes to the Grow Hope Foundation.</span><br />

<br />
It is a busy time of year! Trying to tick all your to-do's off your checklist and still finding time to enjoy the season!<br />
<br />
We celebrate the holidays with the 12 days of Christmas which includes little notes or cards each day and a little goody or gift. In that spirit I thought it would be fun to highlight and introduce you to 12 Handmade Shops that I love and admire to spread a little love to them and to you! I know December is a BUSY month for makers getting ready for Holiday markets and stocking their etsy shops, and marketing themselves is tough sometimes to find the time to do it well.<br />
<br />
So let's all share a little love to these shops by sharing with our Facebook friends, you never know who is looking for exactly what they are selling!! So please SHARE this post on FB.<br />
<br />
****************************************************************************<br />
<br />
Day 1 of the 12 Days of Shopping Handmade for Christmas featured artist/maker is <b>Kelli May- Krenz!</b><br />
<br />
I love all the beautiful cards, handmade decorations, jewelry, amazing pieces of art, oh pretty much everything she creates. There are so many talented artists that I am going to feature in this 12 days, but what I love most about Kelli is that her pieces are TREASURES. <br />
<br />
We may find a piece of jewelry that speaks to us and looks nice with an outfit, but when we find a Kelli piece we find a true treasure, something that if we don't grab it when we see it, will HAUNT us for years to come. Do you know that kind of special item?!<br />

<br />
I'm excited to share with you today my chat on the Power of Words with Ali Edwards. Ali and I met at the Gorge in Washington, when we were there seeing The Dave Matthews Band a couple years ago. I noticed her Instagram pic, looked over and there she was. So loving DMB is a good start to bonding with someone as far as I'm concerned!<br />
<br />
Ali Edwards' passion resides in that very special place where the stories and images of life intersect.<br />
<br />
Designer, blogger, workshop instructor, and author of four books about memory keeping, Ali is well known for authentically capturing everyday life with photos and words and creating memory keeping projects from those moments that pass by in an instant.<br />
<br />
Guided by simple principles such as not making things more complicated than they need to be, focusing on the things that matter most and embracing imperfection, Ali Edwards is proud to be a work in progress.<br />
<br />
She believes without a doubt that there's no right or wrong way to do all this, that the real stories are worth telling, and there's a whole lot of celebrating to do even in the midst of the challenging pieces of life.<br />
<br />
Since 2004, Ali Edwards blog, workshops and memory keeping projects have inspired tens of thousands of people to share their own stories and enrich their own lives through the process.<br />
<br />
Ali lives in Eugene, Oregon with her two children and their cat George Washington.<br />

<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;">Are you loving October or what? We don't have a lot of changing leaves here yet, we had a ton of rain and now chilly, sweatshirt and boots weather which is divine! We had a perfect weekend, sunny and warm enough for the Apple Picking BBQ Adoption </span><span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;">Fundraiser</span><span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"> we has Sunday at the Homestead. I can't believe it's October and we hadn't picked but a few apple before then! Our September was nuts! Still tons of apple for us to press for cider and make into apple butter, apple sauce, apple pie and my fav Apple Crisp!! This is the week for it!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;">For today's chat I'm excited to welcome Cheryl Jaeger! A friend I met on Instagram, someone who shares my love of words and creating.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;">Cheryl’s life-long love of creating began with the sewing and crafting classes that she took in 4-H (with her mom as her best sewing teacher). She has been teaching elementary school for 26 years and is a wife and mom to two teenagers. Her quiet moments are spent designing, cutting, stitching…and imagining the possibilities {a.k.a. avoiding housework}.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;">You can check out her Instagram account; user name: craftycjaeger. She sells some of her work online at www.cjaeger.etsy.com. If you are shopping in the greater Kansas City area, her work can be found at Genevieve’s Home, a shop in downtown Blue Springs, MO. If you are a fan of the First Fridays sales in the West Bottoms of Kansas City, she has a space in the General Store area on the third floor of Bella Patina. </span><br />

<br />
We are back with our 8th Chat today. If you missed having chats over the weekend, I have decided that this month we'll just have our chats during the week. The weekends are just going to be filled with family things, working around the property and filling out paperwork for our adoption process. So you'll anticipate the Monday chats even more now :)<br />
<br />
Today's Conversation is not going to disappoint you! Stasia Savasuk is our special guest and she has lots of energy and enthusiasm! What a fun conversation. <br />
<br />
Stasia Savasuk is a Personal Stylist (with a twist!) and founder of Stasia’s Style School. Her unconventional-transformation-motivational approach to style leads women of all ages and stages on an intuitive journey of letting go, knowing what they know, and embracing a life filled with confidence, courage and (inside-out) congruency. Stasia knows that changing your pants will change your life, and has ushered hundreds of women away from years of body-shaming, self-talk and muffin-top jeans to a place of body acceptance and pants that fit-to-flatter thankyouverymuch. Stasia can be seen frolicking in the backwoods of Vermont with her two kids, wearing a skirt, big earrings, red lipstick and a friendly smile.<br />

<a href="https://vimeo.com/185894942">The Power of Words with Stasia Savasuk</a> from <a href="https://vimeo.com/handmadeu">Rachel McGough</a> on <a href="https://vimeo.com/">Vimeo</a>.<br />
<br />
I love how this chat focuses around how we use words to define a goal or a feeling we are after. With identifying it with words, it helps us figure out a way to get to that end goal. Focusing on the Power Words, a phrase or a motto can help you in how you feel about yourself, help you make decisions that come up, and encourage yourself and others.<br />
<br />
How do you want to feel? Is your style, the choices you are making all helping you feel that way?<br />
<br />
Thanks Stasia for joining us today! Really enjoyed our chat!<br />
<br />
Cheers,<br />
Rachel<br />

<br />
I'm excited to have this little Arkansas gal on with me today. D'Wana Villines is a wife, momma, friend, and the creator of Mountain Girl Melodies, LLC. She holds Soul Care Retreats near her home in the Ozark Mtns of Arkansas. She also creates leather "word" cuffs for local shows and for her Etsy Shoppe (find it <a href="https://www.etsy.com/shop/MountainGirlMelodies?ref=ss_profile">HERE</a>). She has a deep love for words and the influence they carry. <br />

<br />
I love hearing the stories from all these cuffers that make beautiful, meaningful pieces for so many people. It is becoming apparent through these chats how the same word can mean so many different things to many people.<br />
<br />
Think about your word or words, and ask a friend or family member what that word would mean to them. Is it the same thing? How does that connect you when you chat about your words?<br />
<br />
Thanks D'Wana for the great chat! Appreciate you!<br />
<br />
Hugs,<br />
Rachel<br />

<br />
It's Day 6 of the Power of Words Handmade U Conversation Series and I'm so excited to have Melinda Edwards with me today on the chat! It is extra fun today because it's her BIRTHDAY! Happy Birthday Melinda!<br />
<br />
Melinda is a wife, mom of four, jewelry maker and occasional blogger. She began making jewelry in 2013 after the passing of their four year old son, Jack. What started out as a hobby and a way to pass the time, quickly became a family business. She is blessed to be able to work out of her home on their small Southern Indiana farm. She sells her jewelry on Etsy and local markets. She is so thankful for the opportunity to bless others with meaningful pieces of jewelry and to be able to help her family financially in the process. <br />
<br />
You can find Melinda on IG @lilredmouse and Etsy shop <a href="https://www.etsy.com/shop/LilRedMouseJewelry?ref=ss_profile">HERE</a>.<br />

What a touching story Melinda shares. With great tragedy beauty can still shine through. Melinda you are such a strong and brave woman. Thank you for sharing with us, and being such a light for everyone who knows you and hears your story.<br />
<br />
There is so much power is the words we share, the meaning of which each person that hears it can identify their own story with it. I love how creating meaningful pieces can hold such memories tight to your heart.<br />
<br />
Thanks for doing what you do Melinda!<br />

Jennifer Allred, from The Turquoise Tomato is joining us to share TONS of Tips, Techniques and Tags! Her samples are way cute guys! I know we are going to have more ideas than time, but you are going to walk away with a binder full of completed items and fresh ideas to take home and work on going forward! All your projects will be kept in the Stitch Don't Bitch Binder and you'll be able to carry it with you for those moments you need a quiet stitch.<br />
