Our cousins were with us on our trip. With four kids on a boat, playing pirates and princesses was a great source of entertainment. Happy weekend to everyone and Happy Easter to all who are celebrating!

More bright colors and Caribbean prettiness from Falmouth Harbour in Antigua. I'm off to sew. I'm going to be updating my Etsy shop next week. Tomorrow: Pirates of the Caribbean.

We spent most of our trip anchored off Falmouth Harbour in Antigua. We could swim off the boat, but there was also a beautiful beach a short dingy ride away. Tomorrow I will post pictures of our trips into town. I'm so glad I have these bright, sunny pictures to look at, because as I post this it's snowing outside.

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!
