Update-

Thank you so much to everyone who came by the Website Update today! It's been so nice to work on a number of pieces again- seeing the shelves of the studio fill up with new pieces... and now I'm preparing boxes and writing address labels. Before I packed up these two bunnies I had to take them back out into the garden for one more photograph... it's a BEAUTIFUL day, so now I'm off for a walk in the sun with Claude.
There are a handful of piece still available on the website so come by and check them out!

All the New and Lovely~

tomorrow and thank you and for your pleasure...

Tomorrow is the update- and today I'm working to finish everything up, photograph, and load all the new pieces up onto my website for the update tomorrow at 12noon CST. I wish I could say I've been doing much of the latter at this hour of the day, but I'm still sewing. It looks like I'll be working down to the last minute.
Jay had been in NY for the last week, and I was so excited to welcome him home last night. He greeted Claude and I with little gifts from the city- and lucky for me and for you I suppose- he brought me a yard of this incredibly beautiful Liberty of London print which worked perfectly to finish the handful of pieces that were still sitting unfinished on my worktable this morning.
Hello beautiful. I'm a sucker for a beautiful print but these slay me every time. They're more lovely in person that can be photographed... and this print has all the right colors and just the perfect scale for a special little kitty- who will be reveled tomorrow- until then...

sunny sunday

Still workworkworking to finish all the new pieces for the Website Update this Tuesday. These new little ones are just waiting to get dressed, until then they're hanging out in the garden. Who doesn't want to spend the day in the garden? Happy Sunday.

coming along...

Things have been moving very slow around here for the last few days... Claude passed his flu onto Jay and I (being a mom is nearly impossible when you're sick), so needless to say not a whole lot was happening in the studio. I'm happy to report that today I'm feeling much improved. Whats more, I spend the morning making these Pandas and although I haven't lived with them very long, I think they're some of my favorite bears I've ever made... not a bad way to start back to work.

summer colors

I've been dying a whole bunch of new colors of mohair and making a lot of one-of-a-kind pieces for the up coming website update. I'm thinking it will be held on Tuesday the 29th of June, but stay tuned for more info... Hope you're having a good Wednesday!

a change in workshops....

We're switching things up a bit for the Creative Connection- I'll be teaching this "Let there be Peace" Clip Ornament instead of the Wool Felt Pin Cushion class. Sorry to everyone looking forward to the pin cushion workshop, but I think this little birdie will be a great replacement and addition to the list of classes already offered. If you were already signed up for Wool Felt Pin Cushion class someone from the Creative Connection will be contacting you soon with more info.

Ohhhh- and YES! the Sewing Heritage Toys workshop is unchanged.
