Directives from House Stagers Mean No Sewing

Times have been hectic in our household, as we bought a house and are now in the process of selling our current home. It's exciting, exhausting, scary and fun at the same time -- what a mix of emotions!

We spent days de-cluttering the house so the stagers could take over our home. It is clean. It is sterile. And we have been charged to keep it this way until a sale is made.

My sewing room is very "arranged" but not really inspiring these days. There are no random threads or fabric scraps to be found. But, one fun thing happened -- the photographer who shot our house took photos of Simon as well. She was generous enough to send us a photo with different poses of him added to the room, thanks to photoshop. Simon has been cloned -- at least digitally!



Can't wait to move!

Batik Shirts: Too Matchy-Matchy

We had a great time in Hawaii -- a brief but much-needed break from reality!



While I was proud of making the matching shirts, it was highly uncomfortable posing in them -- together -- for this photo. Needless to say, we only "matched" for a few minutes -- I think the beach staff thought we were crazy!
