He's Crafty!



This proud boy is at it again! Gettin all stitchy and everything! He crafted himself a "tie one on" waterbottle holder with very minimal help from me! Child-sized and everything! He's dedicated to the cause of reusing and is very interested in improving his skill and earning some green this summer, come festie/market time! Luvin You, Nolie!

Slow Down!


It felt good to take a moment to sit and just "be".....it doesn't happen as often as it should. I enjoyed a nice evening with my local sistas, in celebration of a sweet Lil' mama's birthday! Sisterhood, I truly cherish it these days. We have to have each other's backs...there's just no other way!

To Market, To Market...







...Jiggety Jig!
These sturdy repurposed denim market totes are in the shop now! Rush on over and check them out! Boy, it feels good to go through the stash!

Prayer Flags

Celestial Goddess
Om

It is still so very cold here! I've been working on several of these sweet prayer flags this week, but I really want to get a pic of them hanging outdoors for the shop update. I'm enjoying using up all the little bits in the fabric stash to create these reverent reminders. Hopefully, it'll warm up a bit so I can get good pics and update the shop by Friday.

Shop update?

Well, let me tell you..I have been so stitchy lately! Really! I've just completed a custom order for an etsy customer, sewn up some sturdy market bags, and several prayer flags, not to mention altering a dress for my sweet girl to wear on her trip to Williamsburg...and all the accompanying articles (pocket, mob cap, petticoats, neckerchief, etc, etc, etc.)...but do I have any pics to show for all this crafty wonder? NO! It is drizzly here in north central pa! I keep thinking "today's the day" for picture taking...but it doesn't happen!
SO, rest assured that I am being super crafty, and super productive! That shop update will come soon!
For now, it's just me and my Husky! Oh, and a sweet seven year old boy who has recently become so into crafting that he's getting a bit more time on the machine than I am! But really, who could refuse such an energetic, smiling, eager, happy boy? Not I...not I!

The sun'll come out...tomorrow?

Self-Portrait Monday


I still feel so naked....without all my hair....

I keep taking pics to reassure myself that I'm not bald!

Shrooms!


Gotta love shrooms! I put this applique on a bag that's been hanging around here looking unfinished and it really made it pop! Look for it soon on the shop update!
