There are four people in my family.

This bundle of sweet, cozy love is the partial reason for my absence from this space for oh, so many months.

Which is not to say that I haven't had some creativity in the meantime.  While the shop and jewelry design were relegated to the back burner, I have learned to crochet, sewn a "quilt", and taught myself to embroider. 

Here are the results of all this creative energy. 

The crochet project is Alicia Paulson's Tiramisu Baby Blanket, the quilt is from Bend the Rules Sewing, and the embroidery transfer is from Sublime Stitching.  I loved making each project: sitting quietly working while feeling the baby growing and bouncing in my round tummy.
