The cats are my sewing buddies. Pim is experiencing the "tent" for the first time, lol. Can't wait to wear this on sunday!

Here's what I made with the scapes. 4 jars pickled. I can't wait for the bulb harvest.

Scapes! And so many of them!!! Most of this garlic came from taos, nm. It brings the feeling of "home" just a little bit closer.

Got a nice set of cups in process! Taking forever but worth it. Hope to finish up the full dress today. 😀

Lots of sewing, hoping to get the leaves for the skirt done tonight. Looking good so far! Such a pretty shade of green. :)

Pinning all the fabrics, making all the leaves!

Here are the colors going into the new dress design. So excited!

These are my baby spooders. Non dangerous, usually as adults they set up in my tomato beds and learn to avoid me when I tend the plants. 😀 I saw these while out watering today in one of the cinderblocks, much excitement!

Got done with round 1 of pressure washing. Unearthed another sidewalk/pathway. Lots of weed scooping in my future. Hopefully I'll get to some sewing next week. Gardening has taken precedence.

We had been told there was a walkway. Found it!

Just a cute little spooder to brighten your day. He hung around the entire time that I was sorting pots. He's in the Bold Jumper family I think. I've named him Henry. I wonder if he will stick around as this years' greenhouse spider?

Feverfew? More like FEVER MANY. 9 Volunteer plants so far.

A good chunk of kidney stone finally passed, I don't think it's fully done yet, but still yay!

Seeds are popping, moved my rue, weeded a bunch more but had to pause due to an ant nest. Potting up extra starts that have come up.

Enjoy this tiny friend that I found today:

Just out gardening while waiting out a kidney stone.

First batch of magnolia petals are dry, and first round of polishing is done. This batch is pigeons blood agates we hunted in utah. It's a beautiful day outside!

Magnolias oh my!

Yummy chocolate covered strawberries that I made for my nephews birthday today. :)

My dress is finished as of last week, super happy with how it came out. It is largely handsewn. :)

Finished up the project with the flower crown (can't wait to do the photoshoot!) Now back to hand sewing the flapper.
March 25, 2025 at 8:31 PM
All finished, I think that was the last part I needed for a shoot the end of the month. Can't wait to see it all together. (Lico helped obviously. Haha)
March 24, 2025 at 4:04 AM
Another project. (How many projects do I have going on? ALL OF THEM)
March 23, 2025 at 9:29 PM
Dismantling some fabric into trim, next step after that will be shaping and sewing.
