wee bits

I was doing this yesterday. (see above.) Which felt like more...anticipation...than anything else. Truth be told, it wasn't so bad! At all! And I was expecting...let's just say...more. (But I'm not complaining.) Here's the rest of my unraveling this week :). Thank you to Kat for hosting...and to all the talented makers + smart readers...

and back again. (again!)

I loved this ephemeral, collective artwork near Anna Maria Island, FL. We all added a shell we found in the surf. Hello, friends + readers! It was good to go away, and it's good to be back. I count myself lucky to feel both. I've got a little to share in making + reading today,...

buttoning up

I need to get packing and button up here -- but first, it's time to check in with with Kat + Friends! Let's see what's unraveling -- part i (the yarn) I'm not sure where the week's gone -- but very little of it's been to making. I do have a pair of socks now,...

and back again.

Thank you for the warm 'welcome home's' this week! It was so good to go....and good to be home again. Round trip, we were gone 9 days, with one full week spent all. over. Honduras. Our friends outdid themselves showing us their country and sharing their home, and we hope to host them here in...

crossing the finish line

{part i} the yarn I made it! I thought I'd finish in the wee hours last Thursday. (Thanksgiving being my self-imposed deadline.) (Without one, I knew I'd delay putting pieces together.) And I was close! But at the hour you see on that clock (a.m.)...and likely because of that ridiculous hour!...I made an oversight sewing...

engaging…lately {1}

During a quiet moment this afternoon, I thought I'd collect a few pictures of how my One Word showed up today. And then I thought, That'd make a nice kind of Friday post: A quick hello. Here's how I've been doing my word...lately. And a wish to you for a weekend full of whatever you...
