I'm currently unemployed. IF someone were to offer me a job and I didn't take it, would that mean I couldn't get my unemployment anymore? Are there stipulations about this? For example, if I was offered a job that paid really low, less than what I get on unemployment, or if I was offered a part-time job or if it was a certain distance away from my house (far) would those make it okay to not accept and still get unemployment? What about if I was offered a job, countered with a higher offer and they didn't accept my offer, would that mean that I declined the work or that they took back their offer? I'm just not clear on these types of things :)
Thanks!

So, I think for my gifts to my girls in the wedding party, I’m going to get tote bags and have my mom embroider their names or monograms or something on them.
Bags like these: http://www.amazon.com/NEW-Port-Company-B
Anyway, I need ideas on what all to fill them up with. I was thinking little things like a notepad and pen, fuzzy socks/slippers or flip-flops (or both), some chapstick, a little sewing kit, some of those little one size fits all gloves (at least for my cousin Amy, because I know she’ll be cold!), and stuff like that. Does anyone else have any other ideas for little things?
Thanks,
Tisha
ETA: Just to clarify, this is NOT going to be the only gift I’m giving them. It will probably be given to them a couple of months in advance, and I plan on getting them jewelry or a pendent or something. Some people have been saying that I shouldn’t get them something that is just to help me, so I wanted to make sure you all know it isn’t like that. :-)

High-waisted wiggle skirt I made for myself. It's thick jersey and quite simple, two darts in the front, 4 in the back.
Do you lovely folks have any tips on picking fabric that you're sure will have minimal bobbling? I particularly have this problem with jerseys which sometimes bobble just from light handling, even before the first wash! I don't know much about fabric properties so what should I look out for?

I am considering indoor-outdoor carpet.
ETA- after a very wet warm season-- it was not really summer this year- I didn't get to do the textured paint/sand thing. I am looking for something else- too cold to paint now. Also, looking for personal experiences- what worked.

NaNoJouMo- Union
Originally uploaded by lessherger.
I did this image for union. I used it as a technique video as well, you can find it on youtube. I started by putting a THICK layer of white acrylic paint on the background. I scratched into it to write. I used a mask to keep the center area white while I built up layers of color and grunge around it. I then pulled the mask off and added a layer of clear gesso, I could have used white but the clear left the little bits of color that made their way under the mask. I drew the face of the sheep in with soft pencil and white acrylic paint. I then added the original queen of merde image with a dragon from a bacardi ad wrapped around her head. I'm very happy with how this turned out.
