Hello friends, It has been quite some time since I have posted. I have my blog on my bookmarks, so I have looked at the bookmark many times over these past months, sometimes longingly, sometimes with twinges of guilt for not posting in so long. 2012 was, in a word, CRAZY.

Hello blog friends! I apologize that I have been out of the blog loop here lately, but going through major life change is my excuse! We did successfully move to Mississippi, although we turned right back around yesterday after church and came to Houston, TX to visit Kevin’s family for a week. While I am … Continue reading
I have so much to do, so naturally, I’m blogging. 🙂 But I just HAD to show you all the pattern I just purchased. This is a breakthrough for me, because it is my first garment pattern. But it is just so beautiful that it inspired me to give clothing a try (eventually – not … Continue reading

In case you forgot (which is likely), here is the color order I chose for my blanket. I deleted one color. Which do you think it is??? I have finished one full color round. Whooooooooooooot! Pictures to come.
