But, spring is a wonderful season of new beginnings and fresh starts (right?). My family and I are trying to stay positive and present (trying). Immie certainly helps to lift our moods and/or distracts us from the sad past and blurry future by....well, by being two years old. (Heehee.) And the chicks are so much fun, too.
Anyway, in the mix of all this I have had a little solace in my studio. I get short windows of time in there, though I can't say they are always productive. Sometimes I like to sit in the quiet and organize my fabric and yarn. So silly since there are a ton of other things I could be doing! But, I have actually managed to squeak out a pattern that will be released soon. So, stay tuned.
That's the scoop here.

I just wanted to tell you how much I enjoy your blog. Best of wishes during these trying times.
oh, thank you. that's very sweet.
I check in on your posts every Friday before heading off to work. The shots, the patterns, and the commentary are lovely and generous in their attitude, Carrie.
Good luck on the big assignment. I have a feeling (call it reader's intuition) that you will click off shot after shot with style and grace.
Yes, your snippets of flowers and yarn and chicks and your cute little babe always make me smile, so thank you for sharing & be well! x
thank you, ladies...
xo
Ouf, that's a lot going on. I'm glad that you can carve out little moments of silliness (oh that sweet face!) and solace.
that sweet face really is quite a remedy, especially when we goof around. i'll ask her "are you a goose?" and she'll say "no, i'm a monkey. silly monkey."
congratulations on your photo assignment carrie, that is awesome! so well deserved. my mom passed a year and a half ago, i miss her everyday,every every day. i'm so sorry for your loss.
i think taking those quiet moments in your studio is one of the most productive things you can do right now. it's the one thing you have complete control over, and it preserves your sanity, bolsters you for all the tasks in your life.
other awesome things : immie, chicks and a new pattern!
oh, I'm sorry for you, too, Lori Ann. It's so hard losing a parent.
And I agree--having some quiet time, alone, with the fibers I love has been therapeutic. I try not to feel too guilty about it!
