Working on ... a summer top

Whispering Grass

Working on a summer top for me! Wish me luck, as I'm not using a pattern and doing a sort of mash-up of tutorials and stuff I'm making up myself. More details when I finish. Fabric is Whispering Grass in black and white organic cotton sateen and Solid White sateen, both from Harmony Art.

Birthday Party in Blues & Reds

Palette of Blues & Reds


Today we celebrated my daughter's 5th birthday. It was a simple party with a simple palette of reds and blues (with some pinks). It was an enjoyable day with family.

Daisy Fields

Daisy Fields

My grandmother gave me three or four daisy plants from her garden a few years ago. Now I have what looks like a field of daisies (I exaggerate, though, as I have a tiny yard).  I adore them with their staying power and their ability to fill where necessary. So pretty in an unpretentious way.
