Merry Christmas! Fondly, Kimara and Michelle Michelle and I will be off celebrating the holiday with …
Note: I DO NOT share my watercolors because I think they are perfect. Quite the contrary. I am self-teaching and learning, and I hope I can encourage other would be painters to join me in the journey 🙂 Remember… I’m not seeking perfection, I’m seeking JOY. As my love affair with watercolors continues, not only …

A few days ago I was poking around in Etsy, when I came upon this awesome shop, ATERGcrochet, owned by Greta Tulner, from Netherlands. It is one of the most colorful shops in Etsy World, and I immediately fell in love with her crocheted creations. I was especially drawn to her beautiful Crocheted Christmas balls. Aren’t they incredible? Well, she sells the pattern for them, and although I am a crocheting noob, …

I’ve managed to get in a few late night hours knitting my rainbow mittens. Size two needles do not make for quick knitting! This mitts are knitted in the round, and I can’t say I’m a huge fan of purling in the round. I’m all thumbs 🙂 Despite that, the yarn is so wonderful, and …
I do not normally post on the weekend, but this morning I came across this pattern for a beautiful pair of mittens (which can be found HERE): and was dying to find out if my local yarn shop carried this yarn/color. (It is Crystal Palace – Mini Mochi, #101 – Intense Rainbow.) …

Then, let me say, Tim, Michelle and I were floored by how many people entered this giveaway, and how humorous many of the answers were! We had a blast reading each and every entry, and realized, …
I am a sucker for color. Although my favorite or “comfort color” changes like a kaleidoscope, I always surround myself with color… no beiges or whites for me! Since last winter, I’ve embraced a brighter colorway than usual. I have been accenting my spring green and golden walls with reds and oranges. It really has stirred …
How would YOU like to become a Blanket Stitch Whiz? One of the most common questions I receive is, “How do you get your stitches so even?” Well, my normal reply is practice, practice, practice, and although that is true, over the years, I have developed some habits that have helped me improve my blanket …
