A Summer of Unity Stamp Co. Stamps
As promised, and in a timely fashion I might add!, here’s a rundown of Unity Stamp’s Summer Kits of the Month. First up, June – ah, so long ago it seems. Love June’s kit.. If I had any quibble, the only thing it would be is that I don’t feel like that particular bird is […]

A Fabric Experiment
As you know, I’m a sucker for a sale. So, when Ivy Newport ran a super duper birthday sale (40% off!) on most of the classes on her website, I took advantage and purchased a class, Fabric in Time with mixed media artist Stephanie Rubiano. This was a class I camethisclose to purchasing at full […]

Not About the Eclipse
I know, today is all about the eclipse, and here I am, inside blogging for the first time in two months. That’s what happens when you don’t get your NASA approved solar eclipse glasses – forced to finally blog. I’m just going to have to watch some shade from my window. Ah, now there’s some […]

Crafting On – Starting Point at the End Point
Ah, this time last week we were just arriving in sunny California for the E3 conference. Myself, I’m not a big gamer. I dabbled in a little World of Warcraft, but I got bored with that, and I’m just not coordinated enough to play shoot em up games. But, for my husband and stepson, going […]

Not Yarning Along, Crafting On!
Hello Wednesday! Is it really you! Good to see you, my time suck of a calendar day. Before the day goes poof, here’s a run down of the knit/crochet happenings since February – The Ambah MKAL As you may recall, my knit started out looking like this: But I hated the cartoony speckle, and ripped […]

The Quest for the Perfect Monthly Crafty Subscription
My my my its been a long time – February! Here’s my tale of “woe.” I like to link up to the Yarn Along on Wednesday. And, for whatever reason, I kept missing Wednesday! I would be in the mood to post on a Monday or a Tuesday, but think, eh, that post would be so much […]

Last Day for InCoWriMo2017!
Today is the last day of February, and therefore, the last day of InCoWriMo2017. I can’t claim a full victory, but I think I can do half a lap. I managed to get out 22 pieces of correspondence, 19 of which went in the mail, and three of which were hand delivered. I wrote to […]

Flowers, and Leaves and Wreaths, Oh My!
When you get sucked into the handlettering community, you naturally get pulled towards what’s cool and popular in graphic design. Watercolor, wreaths, banners – it’s all big, and it’s all on Skillshare. As I mentioned before, at 99 cents for three months, you can’t go wrong, and I’ve particularly enjoyed the following group of classes […]

Yarning Along – the Mystery Way
And the Ambah Mystery is underway! Mystery knits are always a crapshoot, but I enjoy them nonetheless. This time around I’m joining in on Ambah‘s Hale-Bopp Mystery Knit-a-Long, some kind of a shawl, I guess with a comet theme. As you may recall, I bought yarn, fell in dislike with the yarn, returned the yarn, and […]

I Am Foxy Fixed!
Sometime towards the end of last year, I decided that I had outgrown my fauxdori, a Travelers Notebook from dokipaper on etsy. This notebook served me well, no question, but I lost the money clip that I had on the cover, and it left a really dark mark. I also wanted a pen loop, and […]
