Today was a lovely day of fibery fun, organized by The Yarn Shop. Watching the weather channel last night (rain, rain, rain) I was worried that it wouldn’t happen, but luckily we only got a few sprinkles.
The day started out with demos on wool washing, dyeing, and carding. I personally will probably never (well, never [...]

I finished my Paige Sweetheart Top (ravelry link) from Blueprint Crochet today– I love it!!

Here it is, buttons and all. I got some cute clear buttons with flowery decals at Joann’s to complete it, since they are having their big memorial day sale. Here’s the back view:

The best part is that I can actually see [...]

I’m still here. I’ve been back in Bozeman since Wednesday and caught a terrible cold as a parting gift from Tejas. It was to be expected, in fact I’m surprised I haven’t gotten sick sooner, but I really haven’t been sick in the hacking/wheezing way since I left New York. At least, not that I [...]

This weekend Paul and I went with some friends and their kiddo to the local farm for pumpkin picking. It was a lovely 70 degree day and a great excuse to wear my new skirt.

I didn’t get this pumpkin, but it was pretty. We went with a small ghost (white) one that’s sitting on the [...]

Sorry I haven’t written, but I was runnning around Montana with my father and brother.

We were in Glacier National Park just two days ago and I can’t believe it. Coming back is always hard! The blog will likely be quiet this week as I get back into the grind. In the mean time, you can [...]

Yesterday we woke up early and made our way to the Beartooth Highway for some spectacular scenery. The best part of the day came early– we were driving on Trail Creek Road and a black bear crossed the street right in front of us. He was too quick for the cameras, but we were the [...]

I’m still un-burying myself from all of my stuff. I have gotten rid of so many things. I love the new apartment, but I’ve had to totally rethink the storage. One of the things that was nagging me as I was trying to navigate my chair from the sewing table to the computer was my [...]

Phew, we are all moved in. And what better way to avoid the mess of boxes than to leave the house all weekend for the Sweet Pea Festival? Paul and I spent a good amount of time there trying to avoid the heat, rain,and at one point, during the Japanese Drumming, hail!;  and watching various [...]

Sorry I haven’t posted this week…although, I’m not really that sorry. I’ve been distracted by this:

That’s Tegue, my six month old nephew, and boy is he sweet! I think he’s been enjoying his quilt and onesie that I made him. I have been enjoying getting to know him. He’s so smiley, wide-eyed and cute.
I’ll be [...]

This morning I made poppyseed muffins, from the box (keepin’ it real!). They were yummy and I enjoyed them quietly while catching up on blogs. I am wearing a dress for no reason except that I wore one last night and it was nice. I’m not going anywhere today (chained to the desk!) but what [...]
