Books, Writing, & The Cozy Life
Each Friday I share a few things that have brought me joy throughout the week. I'm finally starting to feel like myself again, which is joyful in itself, and shaking off the cobwebs within me brings opportunities to do the things I love again. I'm thankful! + I'm reading again! And not just audiobooks, which... Continue Reading →
In 2018 I started a handsewing project that makes me squeal every time I see it. The design is called The Mandolin Quilt and I purchased all of the required paper templates from the quilt designer. Along with some luscious Liberty of London Tana Lawn fabric, I quickly stitched together these two blocks: Finished November... Continue Reading →

Throughout the week I collect moments of joy to share here on Fridays. Noticing the small things creates true happiness and I really need to do this work today.

Each Friday I try to gather up little bits of joy from the week and share them here. It's been another trying week, hasn't it? I almost want to go out on a limb and say that this has been the longest week ever, but then I'd worry about jinxing things! And still - there... Continue Reading →
I decided to rename my Friday series from Friday Cozies to Full of Joy Friday. I hope it captures my goal to focus on positive things from the week. But my timing is quite awful because I think it's in poor taste to simply ignore what's happened in the last few days. Instead, I'm going... Continue Reading →
This post is inspired by Anne Bogel at The Modern Mrs. Darcy and Emily P. Freeman. Both of these writers close out each year by asking themselves what worked? and what didn't work? I'm playing with the format a bit - taking out what didn't work and replacing it with what I'd like to change.... Continue Reading →
