End of Summer

The summer has raced by. We enjoyed a week of circus camp for the younger girls, a camping trip with friends at Hermit Island. The girls joined the other children in two mud fights using the low tide mud (YUCK). What a sight they were! They enjoyed floating out to sea on a log and adventuring around the camp ground after dark.

I continue to be busy with my custom orders. Here is a composite photo of some of the cake toppers over the last few months.




I had one bride contact me this summer sharing a photo of one of my ring pillows...



This photo was taken by Joe Mikos photographers. His wedding photos are extremely beautiful!

Washing Day....

I've spent a few days this week working on washing a full bag of nice brown/grey wool. Its not always a fun job but once the wool is washed and they hay shook out its so nice and soft.


I just wanted to share a few of the pastels my husband and I drew while up in Maine last month.

This one was done by me of a hillside overlooking the ocean.



My husband did this one on Isle le Haut while the girls played in the cold waves of a rocky stone cove below. The rounded rocks made a lovely sound as the waves crashed and drained back to the sea. The girls were scandalized to be wading in their underpants. We had climbed the rocky shore cliff to look out along the coastline.
