Goodies

Just look what I received in the mail today from a very special blog reader! A sturdy box stuffed to the brim with vintage linens. This donation will be so useful for stitching projects and inspiration. Thank you thank you.

Oh October!

OCTOBER (pictured above)
"Oh October"
Oh October with all of your gentle foreshadowing! We skip down the street with the brisk fall air beneath our feet, knowing in the back of our mind, its time to prepare for the winter that is sure to come. This piece is about daydreaming of the next big thing, and that proverbial heart on the long sturdy sleeve we made for ourselves.
