New Favs


Just put this up in the shop.

I wish there was a magic button to stop time and sew awhile. I find it so relaxing sometimes. Unfortunately, when there are deadlines and requirements, which are financially fabulous, I usually start working on a new project that I've been thinking about for awhile. I found these blank books at a local craft store and removed the softcover. I rebound them with chipboard, covered them in this great fabric, and restrung them with waxed linen cord. The enclosed paper is thick and feels lineny. They measure about 6 1/2" x 4 1/2". They feel great in my hand.

These are inspiring me as of late.

These Etsy shops are on my favs list.

Those posters are killer...I might have to order some when I finally get back to my house next year. And, I love those Union Jack pillows. You have such great taste! Let me know if you make those love bird pillows in the larger size. I would definitely buy one or two for my couch! Have a great weekend!

Sometimes I wish I could stop time to crochet for a bit...it is relaxing and I think of it as a little bit of therapy. I LOVE the blank book that you redid! Just great!!!!

Do you know what 'Etsy' means or stands for? I noticed that question on several websites.
