Hellooooo!
Well, hello, I have missed you (is anybody still there?)! This is the longest blog break I’ve had since the start of this whole thing and it’s been both a blessing and a curse (and a necessity, I suppose). BUT. I hope to get back into the swing of writing and hanging out around here a bit more! I have a date with my Gramma this weekend for Scrabble and whiskey cocktails and craft-supply-shopping . . . and then back to the blog grindstone, I promise!
As for now, I have one free Friday night – all to myself – and I will be starting a crochet project for a book review I’ll be doing. And finally, two announcements:
Numero uno: I have three broomstick lace pins back in stock, for those of you who have been asking!

Dos: This is more warning than announcement . . . I anticipate a lot of wedding related crafts happening here in the upcoming months . . . heads up!
Enough about me, what have YOU been up to?





Hi speckless, GREAT to see you back, always waiting for your posts. Getting quite cool in the mountains now. Really feels good from all that heat….elisa
Oooo. The mountains are gonna get so pretty in autumn — I’m a bit jealous! Our autumns have been so short around here lately, like we only have summer and winter now!
Hi There! Brand new subscriber. Found your daisy afghan on Pinterest and the rest is history. Made it through the first week of school up here in the Pacific Northwest and have decided that it is time to start a new project now that the kids are back in school. Looking forward to your posts

Hi! Let me know how it goes! I’ll try real hard to post new patterns here and there, but it might be more crafts-leaning for a while (I hope you’re into that, too)!
See you around!
Nice to see you back!
Welcome back from your break!
Yay Heidi welcome back!
my sister got engaged so we are gonna enjoy your wedding crafties!
Mostly my projects lately have been crochet, kitchen towels and a scarf for my mom, a orange and maroon(Hokie colored) shirt for my great niece’s first birthday! Oh and a shawl for myself have all been started.
None crochet stuff has been painting ceramics
and then making mini chalkboards for my sister’s engagement pictures which I am taking for her next Saturday!
Can’t wait to see your new crafts, glad you are back!
Yeeaa! Engagement photos will be so fun! Have you thought of having a little short-term mini blog about the engagement and wedding? I’d love to see what yous come up with!
She decided not to make one because not a lot of our family are on the web lol But I can totally share stuff along the way with you! I can send you emails or maybe make a album on photobucket or something!
Make a Pinterest board!
Welcome back! Speckless, are you on Pinterest? Looking forward to your wedding craft ideas. My craft blog is live and still working on my web site.
Sure am! Under Speckless. What’s your Pinterest ID?
Grapes, grape jelly and grape juice and water bath canning for the first time.
I’m so jell-ous (get it? ha)!
