My yarn and needles have been quiet during the month of December. We’ve been busy with get togethers and other activities and Christmas things. I received this yarn spinner from my Mother when we celebrated Christmas with them the beginning of December. I’m very excited about it. It looks so pretty and it is a […]
Yarn Along {A Portrait of Emily Price}
I’ve been savoring the Christmas season. I never get all the activities done that I’d really like to, but every season is that way for me. I always have IDEAS and love all the traditions and activities and the days always slip away too quickly. Two things I’ve been especially loving this December are the […]
Yarn Along {Pink Pom-pom Wreath}
Did you have a good Thanksgiving? We spent Thanksgiving at my parents. In the afternoon my sister and I and my daughter and her daughters helped decorate my mother’s house for Christmas. It was fun!

Yarn Along {Listen, Love Repeat}
Listen Love Repeat. This book released yesterday!

He’d talked about it for a while and I’m thrilled to see him find something that combines his Legos and creating. He’s growing up and […]
Yarn Along {The Moodys}
A friend gifted me with this journal last week. She said she’d found it a good while back and picked it up thinking it looked like me. Isn’t it fun? So bright and cheery and the cookies look so good, it makes you want to pluck them out of the picture. 🙂 Especially early in […]
Yarn Along {Start}
Hooray! I managed to get another set of coasters finished.

This set is going into […]
