HOW IS IT JULY?
Thank you all for your comments on my last post! I am feeling a lot better and less sad. Just the usual tired. Work is getting crazy again, and we're trying to fit in all the Austin-y things we can before we leave. It's hard to believe that we have two weeks left here. My… Continue reading HOW IS IT JULY?
A Sleep-Deprived Update

I didn't stay at… Continue reading Finished Object – Openwork Shawl

Thank you all so much for your encouraging comments on my… Continue reading A Rambling Crafty Update

Sprig Stitch Crochet Baby Blanket
Hi friends! I wanted to show the baby blanket that I recently finished! The sprig stitch is made using double crochet stitches (treble crochet in UK terms).

A Quick Update So I’m Not Late
Hi friends! Hope you had a nice weekend. Ours was great - it was warm and sunny. We spent a decent amount of time outside - walked on South Congress Saturday afternoon and at a park Sunday.
