Guest Blogging
Hi there! I’m blogging about taking photos over at Simply Robin today. I took some new photos of my new Journal covers (STILL need a name!) this morning and posted my adventures over at Robin’s. Here is the “money shot” – I LOVE this one… I’m now off to sew 30 of these babies by…Saturday!…
More Clutches finished!
They’re coming with me to Idaho for the trunk show! We leave a WEEK from TODAY! YIKES! I gotta get cracking…next up, lots of Eco-Covers! (Need a new name for this type of thing – any suggestions?)
17 Years and counting
18 years ago, the last Saturday in June, my husband & I had our first official “date” – he cooked me dinner and we talked until…early in the morning. 52 weeks later we were married. Lots of rain, a huge tent in the yard of my Mom & Step-Dad to be, good music, pretty flowers,…

I'm a Lucky Duck!
I have won ANOTHER giveaway! From a company that I find inspirational: Ecojot is a Canadian company makes 100% post-consumer recycled paper products. So, they are BEAUTIFUL as well as very Earth Friendly! I was first drawn to their stuff by seeing Carolyn Gavin’s art somewhere on the internet. Her cartoony style, combined with awesome…
June mid-month meetup
Here it is, June 20th – Dear Lord, where has the month gone? Oh, I know…I rearranged the whole house! Well, not the whole house, but it sure does feel like it! AND, after I did everything I blogged about the other day, on Friday, I re-did the window and had my husband mount some…
Inspiration Bookhou
Do you know bookhou? It is an artistic collaboration between Arounna Khounnoraj and John Booth. They have both a website and a brick & mortar store in Toronto. Their aesthetic is clean and spare, with wonderful screen printed sketches on lusciously textured linen. What 1st drew me to them is their fabric boxes, there’s something…
