Inspired by Autumn

This past weekend I visited a nearby arboretum and forest.



It was a gorgeous sun-filled day, perfect for taking in all the colors of the season.



Hope you enjoy.

Enjoy Today!

Creating Goodness Again

Want to pop-in and say hello. Have made enough progress on my craft room that I have been able to get out my sewing machine to play a bit. Shelves are up. Love having everything at my fingertips now.



My favorite way of organizing my fabric stash is to wrap the yardage around a piece of illustration board which I got at the comic book store in bulk. Then I can stand them up like books to see what I have quickly.



It is a tight fit, but the love seat is nice for sitting with my computer and creating new goodies for Whirlwend. Hope to share some of it soon. But first I need to finish painting ... this wall will be a pale avocado.



Happy to be creating handcrafted goodness again.

What a Whirlwend!

My crafting room is such a mess...took a photo of the current chaos. I am in the process of getting everything under control. Considering wall colors. My husband has even said he would build wall shelves for all my jars of crafting goodies. Think he is tired of seeing it all over the house. All I have to do is mark the walls with painters tape where I want them, he said. Of course, I am doing this instead :) Progress is slow at Whirlwend tonight.
