Holiday Spin-a-long

And just because I can, I’ve decided to host another spin-a-long. I had so much fun with the Halloween spin-a-long that I thought it only appropriate to do one for my favorite time of year… the Holiday season! I’ve posted all of the fun details in my shop. The one difference is that there will […]

Finished Halloween SAL yarns!

Finished Halloween SAL yarns!Originally uploaded by Ehwin Goodness – where has the time gone this week? The Autumn months are just flying by and I have hardly taken time to enjoy them! Such is life, right? Actually, I’m lying a bit. I have been enjoying my time spent outdoors at the Farmer’s Markets and I […]

Afternoon

There was something about the way the sun shone into the windows today that created a sort of calm on the west side of the house. The beams of light that were cast across my office and fiber studio warmed me to my toes. It was the perfect afternoon after spending the morning at the […]

If I pass… if I fail…

If I drop out does anyone give a damn? (thank you BNL for providing the perfect lyrics to start my blog with… yet again) I’m having one of those weeks. I’m not sure if it’s because I spent much of last week doing exactly what I wish I could do monthly (sitting at a craft […]

And down.

Prepare for my most random post ever… seriously… did you prepare yourself? Okay, I warned you… My second year at the Bella Vista Arts and Crafts Festival (my largest and longest show) is behind me. This year was far more successful than last, so there is that. Maybe that makes up for the fact that […]

It’s Craft Fair Time

People from far and wide are beginning to arrive in this area of the country for a week/weekend FULL of craft shows. I can’t even think of how many we have in this area starting tomorrow… a lot… I do know that. They all center around War Eagle – a HUGE 4 day show surrounding […]

New Traditions

baked goods at Christmas time I found myself emmersed in memories of Holidays past last night as I read through my latest food porn magazine (it doesn’t matter which one, all of the November ones do this to me). I’m a sucker for all things Holiday. The period of time between Halloween and New Years […]

I’m Always Reminded

hanging out with a couple of the ladies who reside in the memories of the years I write about in this post. I don’t talk to them everyday but I hope they know they have a HUGE place in my life and thankfully help make up the non-baggage memories 🙂 I am constantly blown away […]

Introducing…

The Ugly. Yes, I’ve been known to spin some bad, very bad yarns. We’ll see how I like this next time I look at it. It might just be a good conversation piece. I was sad again today, still missing my mom. I thought perhaps taking a mental health day to just regroup might be […]

Things the make me smile

If you haven’t caught on, Autumn is my favorite time of the year. I love the crisp mornings, the cool fog that settles over the valleys in this area, the changing colors that surround me on my way to work each morning, the introduction of winter squash to the local market, and the smells of […]
