Although our first purple crocus bloomed on April 1, spring didn't seem to really arrive until the end of April/beginning of May. My studio is half (well, expanding to about 2/3 or 3/4!) of our sunroom, so I've had beautiful views out to our blooming tree, purple and (soon) red azaleas, tulips, and, at the edge of the yard, a bright pink bleeding heart. I am so ready for spring!.JPG)
This past week, I've been busy stitching up gifts for various friends and family members to deliver while I'm in Oregon and Washington this coming weekend. My sister, Sally, is graduating from Whitman College in Walla Walla (also my alma mater), and it's supposed to be 90 degrees there this weekend! I'm hoping all this soaking up of sun and some extra rest (I'm travelling solo, only my 2nd trip away from Caden) will give me lots of extra energy to burn when I get back to Massachusetts on Monday. I have a week of sewing to do (Sack It bags for the Petersburg Marine Mammal Center, Pencil Pouches for Earmark to sell at the San Diego Farmer's Market with their pencils and stationary, and a couple custom projects) then I will be ready to unveil...
...my special limited collection...
...in celebration of my new logo design! I'm so excited - more soon!

Hey Cascade! Count me in! Great new fabrics from your trip. Can't wait to see how you use them : )
Hi, Cascade...
Oh, my, your creative juices are flowing!
I know spring has arrived when I smell the cottonwoods blowing on the breeze. Yesterday, a special treat--sun, streaming through the newly-leafed cottonwoods, sent dancing, shimmering shadows onto the roof outside my windows.
Just "Be".
