So, that means that I will have some crafting to share here in the next few days. I have some things from around the house to share as well. But, for now, I thought that I would share this….my virtual to-do list if you will. I am an idea collector, and my friends send me [...]

I thought I would share the second installation of handmade Christmas. Yes, I know Easter on Sunday. Yes, I know that it is April, but I am slow. This handmade gifting is still a little new for me. So, without any further ado here are the gifts that went to the family from the midwest. [...]

On February 28th, I took the following photo. I thought I was taking a picture of the last snowfall of the year. And, then we woke up this morning, exactly one month later, to this! Can you believe it? It will be April on Wednesday. This seems like some sort of cosmic practical joke. Last [...]

I haven’t been in this space much lately. As I mentioned, I have had my wife here visiting with her beast, her description not mine. I mean how could you not get distracted with all this cuteness around! I really had no hope. But alas, the wife left for the next adventure last weekend, so [...]

Thought that I would play along with Sew, Mama, Sew!’s Stash Talk. What do you usually sew? I am a quilt kinda girl. But, lately, I have been breaking out into other areas like crayon rolls, bags, and most recently a set of place mats that I can’t wait to share. When you shop for [...]
