Liz,

I am a quiet, behind the scenes reader of your blog, but I just wanted to write and let you know how much I look forward to coming to your blog site. I love your perspective, your sense of appreciation for the simple things in life and for the encouragement you offer to those who come visiting. You make me feel like I am sitting down to take a deep breath, sipping a nuturing cup of tea and realizing I have all I need to be happy. Thank you for what you share with us!

I want the pillow in the first photo. Dreamy. It's really great to see what was once only an idea coming to fruition. That is encouraging.

I'm with pink sky: that last photo is intriguing and I have tons of ideas of what it could be, but I'm guessing that I will be way off.

Your creations are looking great. Keep sewing!

LOVE the vision of you creating like crazy, and these close up shots of your work are such a wonderful tease. ;) Good luck getting everything ready for the show!!

Oh that sounds like a fabulous show!
I would love to meet Ellynanne Geisel! Her apron book is lovely.
