Books, Writing, & The Cozy Life
This month I'm linking up with the Modern Mrs. Darcy and her QuickLit post! This gives me a chance to share a lot of what I've been staying busy with. It's been one of those spring/summers when I'm so busy all of the time, but have very little to show for it! What I'm Reading:... Continue Reading →
I just wanted to share one more little sewing trick today. If you're a quilter and make lots of half square triangles, you know how time consuming it can be to draw lines on the back of squares before sewing. There are some fancy sewing machines out there that have lasers built in and they... Continue Reading →
Happy Tuesday! And Tuesdays usually mean that I'm linking up with the Broke and the Bookish for Top 10 Tuesday! I completely missed the second part of this week's challenge. It was supposed to be The Top 10 Books from X-Genre that I've added to my TBR, but I overlooked the "that I've added to... Continue Reading →
Happy Monday, friends! I am so happy to say that I scheduled today off from work and now it is NAP TIME, which gives me a chance to publish a few blog posts that I've been itching to write. It was hard to know where to start because I have so much to share, but... Continue Reading →
I'm the worst at remembering to do basic maintenance on my machine. My primary machine is my Juki TL2000QI which I adore. It's not a computerized one, just a good old fashioned workhorse.

In my last post, I mentioned that I've been obsessed with knitting and sewing again. I wanted to share a few recent projects here, if that's okay. I know that it's not book related, so feel free to skip if you're not interested!! A recent finish is my Find Your Fade shawl. I am so in... Continue Reading →

Not so much. When I'm not reading, I'm usually doing something like knitting or quilting -- which... Continue Reading →
Lincoln in the Bardo: A Novel by George Saunders According to an interview with the author, Saunders was inspired to write this book when he learned that Abraham Lincoln was known to visit and hold his son's body after he died of typhoid fever. Willie Lincoln died when he was 11 years old and while his... Continue Reading →
I'm joining up with the Broke and the Bookish this week to talk about my Top Ten Books to Read in a day. This one is kind of hard for me because I haven't been able to read a book in a day in a long time. So please know that, more than likely, I did... Continue Reading →
Tomorrow will be the three month mark for my morning pages. On December 21 I started a morning routine of writing in my journal every single day. Much to my surprise, I've only missed a handful of days which makes this my longest stretch of journaling ever! I've always wanted to be the person who had... Continue Reading →
