Ever spend time flipping through eBay and run across something that jogs your memory? Something that takes you back to a simpler time. Back to when you spent hours on end TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHAT THE HECK YOU WERE SUPPOSED TO DO WITH THE 12′ LONG WORM you created with your very first piece [...]

Whoa. I knew it had been a while since I’ve blogged, but over a month? Time flew because I’ve been having nothing but fun! After three months, I think I have Adobe Illustrator almost figured out. I am indebted to my Yoda, Laura Coyle. And pleased to say these are my new, spring-focused fabrics! I’ve [...]

You know how you accumulate a pile of pictures of things you meant to blog about but didn’t? I’ve got a ton of them. Let’s start with this. I realized if you doubled up rick-rack you could have some of that really cool, W-I-D-E rick-rack. Food for thought. And how about this? I literally unearthed [...]

I’ve been a little preoccupied lately with, as I told a friend, the third most important thing to happen in my life. I won’t be dyeing my hair blue anytime soon. And I won’t be wearing funky perfume. No socks rolled down to the ankles or house dresses. But, I will be cranking up the [...]

Fabric shopping proves to be stress reliever!

We’re knee-deep in baseball playoff games here in Michigan. To alleviate my stress and prevent a sure heart attack while the score has been whittled down to a paltry one run difference between the Detroit Tigers and the New York Yankees, I thought I’d pop in for a quick second to show you some unbelievable [...]

The past couple of weeks have had me wishing I could be one of those people who say, “I don’t need a computer!” There really are some of those people around, I know them personally. They’re totally content not having hard drive crashes, downloading and installing new programs, reinstalling old programs, paying the big bucks [...]

An embroidered fabric I ran across. Interesting, isn’t it? In my Guest Picks submission for Houzz.com this month I had fun with fabrics. I can literally feel the wheels turning as I decide where this beautiful peony fabric by Victoria Larson Textiles should live in my home. So many fine fabrics. So few windows in [...]

Come see me! I’m visiting at the Houzz again and this time I’m bringing a girly-fantasy boudoir to life! Love this bed! Couldn’t you just die!?! And how about this from Ballard? I’d have that thing full of shoes and handbags quicker than you could sell a Hermès Birkin Bag at a Hampton’s tag sale! [...]
