The View

I had to get out of my sewing room for a minute because the sweaters are tantalizing me and the smell of wet wool is a little overwhelming. I've been felting and cutting and dreaming about fall purses ever since I got back from Buffalo with a fresh batch of beautiful wool sweaters. I can't wait to get started....

The Cottage

We are going to the cottage for a few days.

Where it is always sunny. (We were told this even when it was obviously overcast and raining)

You might get a few words from Grandpa about the kiln.

The seagulls are there for the chasing.

And legend has it that the sunsets are the best on the planet.

Swedish Meatball Distraction

See that nice new desk from Ikea? It only took 2 trips into Atlanta to get it purchased and home and all set up complete with a little pack of jelly beans to snack on. The first trip was fun and complete with cinnamon rolls for breakfast and much oogling of the packs of swedish meatballs which we ultimately decided not to buy.

See that stool holding up the back part of the desk? That is because it was nowhere noted that we needed to buy 5 legs for the desk, or at least we didn't see it anywhere and didn't for a minute think of buying an odd number of legs.

It is pretty clear we spent too much time thinking about the meatballs and not enogh time paying attention to the bin numbers and we may have spent a little too much time singing "Dancing Queen" and "Fernando" while shopping. Time to schedule another trip back to Ikea soon.

A New Addiction

I can't stop making hats.




Especially after seeing how great they look on Margaret.
