This is just what I needed to break out of my recent creative funk.

                               

This nice little stack of fabric has so far turned into these:

             

…as well as a few other things. I was just starting to get back into a rhythym again after the holidays and then this past week I was down with the flu. Luckily Stella managed to not get it, so hopefully the rest of this week won’t be a total write-off.

Speaking of Stella…(nice segue I know), she has been having a serious word explosion lately. She has been talking a lot more for awhile, but she has definitely taken it to the next level. Today alone she said boot, shirt, bread, food, and sit. All new words for her. Her new thing lately is saying “yeS” with the “s” enunciated PERFECTLY. Will and I crack up at that, it makes her seem so old and proper. She used to say “yah” all the time, which I think we say more than yes, so it seems really odd that she says “yes” like that. She also says “puck” instead of “cup” which I pretty much stopped trying to correct because it is SO cute, and she seems to pronounce everything else normally. She is totally entranced by animals now, and loves to make the animal sounds, especially horses, dogs and cows. She makes a more accurate horse neigh than I do in fact. And that is probably enough about the babe….. don’t want to bore anyone. More crafty projects coming soon. Maybe even some tutorials if I can get my act together.

Peace, love and craft….
