Bloggin' Newbie



Hello, all! I decided to join the 21st century with the rest of the world and start my own blog. I hope to post pictures and share thoughts with those who know me and love me anyway. :)

I've just completed an outfit for Lily that I've been working on (or thinking about working on) for months now. It fits, so I suppose my timing was accurate! While I was in creative mode, I also made her some adorable pink felt shoes. I think I will make a zillion of these for my mother's store, Ewe Knit (you're welcome for the free advertisement, Mother!), and for the Shakerag fair we will be entering in the fall.

Every now and then I just have to make something, or I will go nuts! Painting, sewing, and writing quiet the beast within. I'm itching to paint next and then to write...in that order. Oh, but there is a mountain of laundry to do and dust bunnies to tame, so I often feel guilty about creating. Occasionally, someone or some random passage from a book will remind me that I must do what I was "created" to do, though. Balance is the key, and not many find what keeps them balanced. Making things does that for me. God bless those for whom housework is their balancing passion!

So, tell me what you think of my latest creations. I'll post more as I create more.

  2. Yes, thanks for the 'plug' for the store! I know this is kinda late, but I just saw your blog. You are way more creative than I ever hoped I could be, so keep on doing it! And sometimes...it keeps you from going balistic! Love you and am so proud of you.
