I don't think of myself as a prolific maker, but goodness - I am eclectic! No wonder I always feel so scatterbrained - I have so many interests and allow myself to get pulled in so many directions. And the following is the result! I've done my best to look at the pictures I've uploaded... Continue Reading →
It’s Beginning to Look a Lot Like… A Sweater
It is definitely not looking like Christmas around here! Today's rain will wash away all of our snow, so we won't have a white Christmas for the first time in about a decade. Bah humbug, I say! I drafted this post yesterday but just deleted it all. It's pretty clear that I'm a little Grinchy... Continue Reading →
A Junction Update | Harikuyo | Chai
Good morning! Can you believe that it's Friday? This has been one of those weeks that has been agonizingly slow while also flying by. Know what I mean? So on one hand, yes. I can believe that it's Friday. And on the other... what is Friday? I can comprehend very little right now. I am... Continue Reading →
Friday Finish | Bear Paw Socks
Welcome to December! This week, month, year... it has all flown by. We'll blink and it will be 2023 -- how is that possible?! I mentioned it on Wednesday, but it's been such a cloudy and gray week around here and it's been perfect for enjoying my newest pair of socks! I've barely gone a... Continue Reading →

Friday | I’m in the Mood for Making
And I believe that our maple tree has finally hit its wintering stage. In less than a month we've gone from a full tree with just a tinge of color to nearly barren, with just a handful of leaves holding on for dear life. I mentioned this week that I'm also turning inward and am... Continue Reading →
A Weekend Full of Leaves
Last week was a strange one - I couldn't pull anything together for the blog for some reason. I feel bad about missing my Monday and Friday posts, but that's just how it goes sometimes. I'm hoping this will be a more typical week for me! This is the picture I meant to share on... Continue Reading →
Friday | Stunning Week
This gladiola stunned us when it opened earlier this week; we weren't expecting any to be this gorgeous orange and lemony yellow. And even with new gladioli blooming, there are signs of fall. Our maple tree is changing color and we're watching leaves fall to the ground at an alarming rate. Yesterday's high was 68*F... Continue Reading →
Friday | The End of an Era
Good morning! I hope you're happy that it's Friday. Fall continues to arrive in New Hampshire - the apple orchards opened for picking last weekend, school has started, and the nights are delightfully cool. And we have more sunflowers blooming! I hope you're also seeing signs of the changing season wherever you are because we... Continue Reading →
Friday | Late August Gifts
Hello to the last Friday in August. We've nearly made it through this month, friends. Can you believe it? September - here I come. Apple picking, apple pies, foliage, drives through the mountains, hot chocolate, and cozy time under my quilts? Yes, please! AND this week has been full of surprises and gifts. I'm sharing...
