We were coming home from the gym about six last night as the sun was setting. I was just in time to shoot a few pictures before the sky lost it’s beautiful colour. Unfortunately in my haste, I had neglected to fix one of the camera settings, so these photos do not capture all of […]

Well, as I mentioned in last week’s art post, I’ve become very interested in the work of David Downton. I read the interview on his site today to get a better idea of how he works and gets to the final stage of his pieces. There wasn’t a whole lot about his process, but there […]

I know I missed posting yesterday, and I place full responsibility for this on Project Runway. I’m not sure how it has prevented me from posting, but it does manage keep me up late… While I am waiting for my second batch of fabric samples to arrive, I’ve been making some new slippers. I’ve […]

I took this photo when we were driving through Boulder, Colorado. It was a beautiful autumn day and the entire town was covered with leaves. We were sitting at a traffic light and this Volkswagen pulled up beside us. I couldn’t resist…

Just thought I’d post a custom order for an itouch pocket I made this afternoon. I’m happy to have sold two pockets the past couple days…
So, my latest fixation- Project Runway. Yes, I’ve been sucked into another tv series. It was nice to have a couple crochet projects to finish today so I could keep […]

I made beans for the first time today. Lately I’vereally been wanting to make a wider variety of food, and decided I would start with rice and beans. I never really had them much growing up, and figured they would lend themselves to some new dishes… They turned out surprisingly well for my first time! […]

I took about a million photos of my valentine flowers. I separated them into various vases instead of shooting them all together. They were beautiful combined, but I wanted to capture the simplicity of each type of flower instead of the abstract colours in a bouquet.
