Ive been working on this little by little, and am really enjoying it. Since this chunk of wood wont be visiting any printing studios anytime soon, I have plenty of time to work on it. I a...
May was a pretty good month. A year ago today I was biking the long hot road from Sewanee to Pulaski, Tennessee. This May up in New Hampshire was a bit colder and there was a lot more rai...
One of my required classes in school was a life drawing class. A few years ago I signed up and I was more than terrified going into it. I had never even attempted drawing people, portrait...

This weekend was for a wonderful friends wedding down in North Carolina! Unfortunately, I couldnt make it. Oh how I wish I could have been there. I am trying to be smart about my mo...
I play favorites. I have one pair of jeans that get all the attention. It used to be these lighter jeans, but now its a nice pair of Levis. In my Spring Cleaning de-cluttering and thinning of my belo...
With all the excitement that came with making my second quilt, I decided to share the tale of my very first quilt. This was actually a final project for a fibers class I took a few years ago at...
Coffee ice. This is one of those brilliant things that seems so simple after youve heard of it. It took me a while to hear of it, but now Im on board. Ive been trying to make a batc...
I often pack up and move for short periods of time. Six months at school in Georgia, two months at summer camp, a few months back home, a few months in Philadelphia for an internship, rinse, re...
Ta da! I got a little distracted by the baby goats at the end, but here is the finished quilt! Finally! I went off the clues: its a girl, earthy colors, yellows, and no pink. ...
This is another somethin somethin you can find in the shop, but I had to share its magic. Once upon a time I hated carrying my bike lock. When I was biking around town Id have to carry my backp...
Last weekend I started a new woodcut relief print project. A while ago a friend told a funny story that stuck with me and I had been wanting to make a print of it somehow. Now that my han...
I am so close to finishing this quilt! I did a bit more embroidery than I had expected, so it has taken me a bit longer to finish than I would have liked. Its actually good since the back...
This blog has become saturated with goat photos. Thats okay, I just cant get enough of these little ones. I am in charge of giving them their evening bottles on Wednesdays and Thursdays s...
Our next door neighbors dog has found some sort of canine fountain of youth. Every time this little gal comes over for a visit I still cant believe its her. This pup, I call her pup becau...
Hows this for glamorous? Hmm, what to do when it is rainy and the little goats need their bottles... Sounds like a perfect time for muck boots, jeans, and oversized cozy thrift store sweaters.&...
Okay. Watch out. I have fallen in love. I have fallen in love with goats. On Monday my sister-in-law-to-be took a drive out to Vermont and came home with these little ones.&nb...
I couldnt help but take pictures of this beauty. My sister-in-law-to-be and her friend came over to borrow my dads pickup truck because... they went to Vermont to get two baby goats! Late...
Wellp, I was so bummed to be out of town for Elycia and Chantillys crafternoon, so I decided to share how I make a similar bike related bag. I added these to my shop a few weeks ago, but couldn...
Its been rainy and overcast since Ive gotten back from Florida last week (where it was rainy and overcast the entire time). I actually dont mind this weather but I often get mesmerized by it an...
I finally shook off the laziness and wound a bobbin with yellow thread. That was about how far I got before my sewing machine took a staycation. This was the first purchase I ever made wi...
Ive decided to jump in. Jess started a little spark with her Things Im Afraid To Tell You post. From there, Ez organized and invited others to join in. This blog world is still fai...
(1) smore the merrier top / (2) pick a flavor top / (3) a sun hat called desire / (4) youre a natural belt / (5) in the backyard scarf / (6) truly gritty and gorgeous bag / (7) coming up posies sanda...
I love ordinary days. The kind of days where time seems to pass a little slower. One of my favorite days recently was a nice sunny day spent helping my sister-in-law-to-be with a bit of l...
Wellp, I slept in today. Its my last full day in the Sunshine State and it is a-stormin out there. Im holed up in my friends apartment snuggling up and watching a bit of TV. Forget ...
April went by super fast, and I think a lot of that is a result of my countdown to Florida mixed with physical therapy keeping me on a schedule. Once again I had the luck of many roses to choos...
With the excitement of my Florida travels, I didnt have time to finish the last frames of my old cameras film. Oops! Instead, I emptied my phones photos and borrowed from there. In ...
A cup of coffee to soothe the nerves, deep breath, and... today is the day! I am leaving for the airport and flying to Florida. I am so excited, I almost forgot that I am kind of afraid o...
At times like these, I cant help but think of As Good As It Gets. Remember the scene where Helen Hunt cant even get started packing for the road trip and in a moment of desperation she calls Ja...
This weekend was spent trying to determine if I have chicken pox, a new allergy, or if a spider had its way with me in my sleep... still a mystery. Before the lovely pox-like red dots appeared,...
