I can't believe how much I packed into today! Digital Scrapbooking Day, a Martha Stewart Party, judging literature entries for a local school's Reflections contest, and a wild and crazy birthday party for one of our friends. I fully intended to upload all my Martha party pictures and have them post to my blog by morning, but as I am finally sitting down to my computer at 10:45 p.m. on Saturday night,...

I’ve been wanting a new sweater – I feel like I haven’t finished one in ages! It’s kind of an illusion though, because mostly I just haven’t been knitting winter-weight sweaters. But it’s getting cold again so off I go. After a lot of fine projects, these 5mm needles go super fast! I’m working up a [...]

I’ve been earning my living as a designer, fiber artist, writer, workshop presenter, and other wild and wonderful ways (professional puppeteer included) for more than 35 years.

I love this idea of using brooches as gift toppers from Laura of Bugs and Fishes . It's a fun way to add a little extra gift to your gift and include something that won't be thrown away. I also love how she's used yarn in place of ribbon - so lovely! Read this article | Comment on this article

I tend to use traditional bed frames in my rooms. I have too many cool antique beds that I absolutely adore to just make a funky headboard instead. However, it doesn’t keep me from dreaming. I fantasize about building a really cool bookshelf/cupboard/table around my mattress so I have room for all the books, magazines, tissue boxes notebooks and other stuff I realize I want after I am cozily...

A couple of the Confirmation candidates in my class this year had opted to go to St. James', Spanish Place, to be confirmed in the Traditional Rite. As catechist, I wanted to "see them done" and so I went along: it was another "first" for me. The church is beautiful, with more statues and stained glass than you can shake a stick at... Fr. Tim was either deacon or sub-deacon, I'm...

Christine Lovesdisney replied to April Baker's discussion ' How did you get into scrapbooking? ' in the group Scrapping the Magic I had collected so many bits of things in 24 years of collecting I thought I would finally put it all together in a book that would be fun to share.

Some days I get no mail, some days the postmen are on strike. Yesterday the mail arrived at 4.30pm and was not worth the wait. Today however was different..and a little spooky. I got two lovely postcards through my letterbox this morning (and 'hooray', Patch did not eat them!). The spooky bit was they were both from Hawaii ..from 2 different people, who don't know each other. Even more coincidental...

He said that he can not say this was not a mini stroke :( My optician says it sounds very much like a mini stroke :( But both say that no permanent damage has been done :) My doctor said yesterday that...
