Good Day...
Yep, it is a full and busy day in the studio!
In between processing orders and dye pots...
my work on adapting favorite rug patterns to other formats continues.
Loving how my sweet partridge is coming to life in punch needle;)
Hope you have a lovely day ~ Laurie
Hello Dear Friends,
A lovely, but gray Autumn day here...
the contrast of the green and golden leaves against the overcast sky is beautiful!
Today is my Momma's 85th birthday! I need to get off the computer and get her cake in the oven...
but thought I would drop in here to say hello for a moment!
I've been busy the past few days updating patterns. {if you follow me and/or the studio page on Facebook...sorry for all the posts;)}
Many are now available in the Etsy shop as PDF Instant Downloads!
And soon several of my smaller mat patterns will be available as Paper Patterns or PDF's too.
With my commitment to caring for my folks, I've needed to come up with a way to streamline the business
...and still earn an income;)
Everyone seems to like these formats:)
It will certainly save me time in drawing patterns, so hopefully I'll have more time for new designs and some much need handwork!
What a glorious day!
The leaves are starting to turn...and the smell of woodsmoke warms my heart.
I put this bouquet together yesterday...
a sweet treat that makes me smile!
When I got back from taking Dad to church, I started in on finishing orders to go out in the morning mail.
I'm itching to get the models and patterns finished for my 1st release in the Hilda Thornbroom Series.
There just aren't enough hours in my day...
my mind is so far a head of my hands;)
Hopefully it will all come together in time to celebrate the Autumnal Equinox:)
Wishing all lovely last days of summer ~Laurie
Today while walking in the wood,
I heard a voice and there she stood.
A softened face, a kindly soul,
Where she came from I do not know.
She has two braids, I have just one
I magical tale has begun.
...Miss Hilda Thornbroom as been lurking about the studio now for several weeks.
I have a feeling she will be showing up a lot in my work this Autumn;)
Good Day Dear Ones,
These late summer days are perfect for finding treasure...
these gems are nature's gift...
black walnut is my favorite dyestuff... and today my squirrel friends have shared with me...
they took their portion...for breakfast or perhaps to hide for a winter's day... and left some magic for my dyepot!
Enjoy this fine day ~ L
