Returned






I'm back from Antigua, after a relaxing week in the sun with family. We went to stay with my husband's parents who live on a boat during the winter. What a life! I'll be posting pictures from our trip all week. I'm looking forward to catching up with all my favorite blogs and seeing all the creative things you have been doing while I've been away!

Going Away

We're going on vacation for a week or so to Antigua.
I'll be bringing these.
And these.
And collecting more of these.
I'll be back in a week or so with lots of pictures and stories from our trip. Happy weekend everyone and a good week to you all too.

Made For Me





I've done a lot more sewing this week and made this bag for myself out of the end of a roll of vintage French linen. My inspiration came from Fog Linen found via Marie. I love all the Japanese fabric and clothing sites Marie finds!

I've also made some bags this week for a local designers show at History. Although I won't be there because I'll be on vacation, my friend Alanna from Toby and Rei has kindly offered to bring some of my bags with her to the show. Alanna has an adorable children's clothing line and a cool blog. This new line of beautiful clothing, J'aime Colette will also be there. If you're in Cambridge check it out!

Evening





The kids went to bed early. We had grown up drinks, grown up food and a quiet evening.

Signs of Spring


Yesterday was warmer and a lot of snow melted. Maybe spring is a little closer now.

Men At Work






My son Will loves to make things with Legos. Here are some of his creations. He's very proud of them!

Tagged






I just got tagged by Andrea to show some pictures of my workspace. I've never been tagged for anything before, so I couldn't resist this chance! Here's where I do my sewing. This room doubles as our guest bedroom, which explains why it's so clean in the top picture.

I'm tagging Artycho, Angie, Marie, and Tanja, all fellow seamstresses. I look forward to seeing all your spaces if you get a chance to play.
