serene sunday and all is well in the neighborhood

Posted in animals, art, BOOKS, etsy, serene sunday on March 3, 2013| Leave a Comment »

Had a wonderful weekend with friends and good food at Milagros. Did lots of reading as well – The Witch’s Daughter. Savoring what is left of this serene Sunday. Snuggling with the kitties.

Now, how about some art (Etsy, of course) I browsed on a lunch break . . .

Sunday and serene

Posted in art, BOOKS, etsy, holidays, serene sunday on December 31, 2012| Leave a Comment »

Calm evening, enjoying the quiet before tomorrow’s busy work day. The end of the month and first of the week – it will be busy. So, I’ll be off to bed early and relish the thought that I have Tuesday off for a holiday. Yea!

Etsy, of course.

Check this out! Bustle and Sew, Helen, is amazing. She put together a complimentary book of tips for stitchers and has The Stitcher’s Companion for sale (see my sidebar)!

I am so excited that I am not sure I will make any sense. And if you haven’t seen her monthly magazine, well, let me say that you are missing all the fun! Lots of patterns and other goodies. Wonderful! The Stitcher’s Companion would make a great holiday gift for your favorite stitcher, and for yourself. So click on the link (sidebar) and get your copies today.

Big hug,

Deborah

take a look thursday

Posted in art, birds, BOOKS, bunny, etsy, INSPIRATION, take a look thursday on August 20, 2009| 2 Comments »

Things are boiling at work. The guys are starting to fight amongst themselves. We are still waiting to hear about our contract protest to see if we have jobs. Not good for the stress levels. I say, just breathe.

Etsy, of course, has some things to make me smile. How about Sandy’s Alice? That is how I could feel today, going down the rabbit hole. Okay, just kidding. Look at her adorable face. She came to my house recently…
