Anna, I would love for you to do a post about adjusting patterns to fit your girls. I have a teen and a 3 year old, and trying to buy a patterns and getting it to fit is loads of trouble. My teen is tall and slender, like Clara. My little girl is tall for her age, but just teeny tiny everywhere. I have trouble deciding whether to buy a pattern that fits waist sizes, then adding extra length, or just adjusting the waist. I'm an intermediate seamstress, any tips would be great!
Wow that is so creative and inspiring. I have wanted a wreath for my door for years but never been happy with any I find... perhaps I need to get busy and make one. This I like!
I am an evangelical Christian. I have three daughters whom I homeschool: Clara (16), Bella (14), and Daisy (7), and two older sons: Giles (20), a college graduate, and Felix (18), a college freshman. I'm 41 years old and happily married to my Dear Composer. We live in a 1920's school converted into a home, outside of town. And God is good.
Photography is an important part of life at my house. Photos that appear here are taken by Giles, by the Composer, and by me. Giles is a real, paid photographer, and he uses a Sony Alpha. Most of the photography prior to September 2008 is his. Since then I have done most of the shooting and I use a Konica Minolta. Additionally, the Composer offers me nice shots on occasion, often from his little Canon point and shoot. I've given up trying to note who's done what. Thanks for your interest!

nice wreath. Did you make it? Now I have some new ideas for the wool suiting scraps in my stash :)
Thankful for all of your blog. Honestly. It changed my life.
Hope you had a blessed Thanksgiving with your loved ones. Would love to hear what your menu was!
A wreath can be made out of anything, can't it? I just need to remember it. :)
