My mornings start with a good cup of coffee .....then settling in my favorite cozy spot looking out at nature...Enjoy my morning with me..




then off to the studio where Sprout is usually waiting on mom to start crafting..


Sprout is always coming up with great ideas she picks out the fibers while I organize the project..she is SO helpful! :)


Lots of ideas and embellishments are in every little container you can see...

Inspiration comes from swaps from Friends and beautiful embroidery work my mom did. My mom passed away very early in her life(70) from complications due to Alzheimer's disease...that is one of the reasons I am a program director of a respite care center for Alzhiemer's patients and their families.

Words are such important things to me ..I gather old books and cut out interesting sentences to put in my art work. Gathering is half the fun of our craft!
