winter creativity...

umm, hello, look at the ring around the sun on my ride down, amazing.

confession: i was an epic failure at the girls sewing/knitting extravaganza in little compton over the weekend. i was too busy blabbing my mouth and asking the serious sewers & knitters a million and one questions about their own projects. but i did learn the basics of knitting (thank you amanda!) and regardless, the weekend was perfection...and these are the photos to prove it...

yeah, so this is the morning view from the house, no big deal...




sweaters, scarfs, bags, quilts, pillows...there was so much production & creativity happening. we nicknamed the house the 'sweatshop' for the weekend...




and holy hell, the best breakfast i've had in years. i will never cook bacon the same way now that i know the secret to the perfect piece of bacon. i wish i had photos of the beef bourguignon from the dinner the night before, but i was too busy shoveling it into my mouth...


ok, i lied, i did one little project...homemade valentine's...which weren't super successful since we couldn't stop eating the swedish fish...


thank you sarah, for hosting, you are awesome. and thank you amanda, meggin, stephanie & emily for letting me listen to your stories, watch you create beautiful items, and making my heart feel full and warm on a cold winter weekend ...and for all the talk about crystals too!
