Today I witnessed the flight of the queen. I was blessed to have been the hostess for a bumble bee nest for many months now. They lived in these nopales. Now to harvest the fruit. Thank you bumble bees for your company. Sleep well old nest. Safe journey for the new queen.

A little big visitor. It was holding a small rock. I found this caterpillar on the ground after a storm

A visitor

A reminder to live and enjoy the spice of life

Favorite thing to make, bags. Favorite details to add, hand stitching/embroidery and you guessed it, secret pockets!

This bag was fun to make, it sold immediately. Secret pockets all over this bag

Hand quilting this fabric that will be the focus of a sitting chair. I found it at the curb waiting for me to remake it and bring new life to a cat scratched chair. Now I can use my Frida fabric
