Feeling Inspired

Happy Spring!

Even though I saw some ::gasp:: s-n-o-w today, it's not about to ruin my weekend. I choose to ignore the little white fluffy stuff and enjoy the sun shining. If I don't leave the house, I can just pretend that it's 60 degrees outdoors, right!? Ahhh,...denial is bliss!

I have been working on some new and exciting 'designer' aprons to add to my site. There is something about working with fabrics that you love, that makes the work so much more fun! I love the final result of making something with my own hands, knowing that it will be worn and adored by someone else. It brings me joy!

I am hoping to make it to the Sewing and Quilting Expo tomorrow here in Cleveland to browse and dream up some new ideas to work on next. Lately, I have been inspired by fabric designers like Liberty of London...

And of course,... who doesn't love Amy Butler? I love that she is from Ohio!
Way to represent!!


Amy Butler

Don't these fabric designs remind you of warm spring days? Normally I am all basic (modern) red, green, gray and yellows kind of girl,..but lately I am enjoying the lighter side of color.
There is something about fabric that makes my heart pitter patter. ((smile))
What inspires you!?

Spring Opportunities!

Can you see me dancing over here? I launched my Apron line via Etsy this week, and am super excited to see where it is taking me! :) I have been enjoying every minute! My future is looking bright! I may have a few opportunities up my sleeve here in the next month or so. I love the blogging community,it has taken me in with open arms. It's amazing how small the world seems when you find woman who enjoy sewing, crafting, raising their kids,....I feel like I have friends all over the world. I hope all of you are taking time to enjoy the beautiful weather we are suppose to have this weekend. ::Crossing fingers:: May have to go out and see what my back garden looks like. I am told (by my husband) that my tulips are peeking out. Signs that soon enough we will be outdoors enjoying all the playing we missed last spring/summer!! I am so ready!

Spring, where are you!?

Winter has decided to stick around here in Ohio. I am soooo done with the "white stuff." Trying not to let it get the best of me. I am looking forward to a friend's wedding this weekend. With spring around the corner, I have been itching for a new hair style. I am hoping to grow my hair out, (so it wont be a short cut). Planning to try a new salon here in the next week or so. Hoping they can give me a pick me up doo. My hair is in dire need of a trim. So when trying to decide what to do with my hair this weekend, I ran across this photo. Amazing! Although, it will be more of a messy side bun. I hope it looks half as nice as in this video! ::crossing fingers::
Happy Weekend!
