Watercolors, Birds & Knitting Birds

Hello! 

I’m so excited about the recent publication from Jackie Morris and Robert McFarlane. It was a delight to receive and a delight to share with you all. I’ve also been delighting in my watercolors and using a swatch project to springboard me into some painting…and not just rocks 😉 There’s also some bird knitting. Thank you for being here with me.

Episode 186~Back in the Sketch Book, Beorn’s Spiced Honey Cake & Knitting

Wow! It’s April 13th! I am know 50…older but not smarter ;). I throughly enjoyed baking up this cake though with my new pan from Nordic Ware. I’m prepping for my Scotland trip and I’ve cast on the Audrey in Unst vest by Gudrun Johnston. I’ll look forward to sharing that with you next episode but it’s not brown. So have a good wonder about that!

A Bittersweet Finish & Another Leather Bag

I hope you enjoy the small retrospective on the Yell. I also finished the Vintage Leather Tote which I’ve promptly given to my niece Maddie. Since finishing the Yell, I’ve worn her a few times to my sheer delight. I’m looking forward to taking her back to Scotland from whence the wool all came.

My Most Rewarding Project Ever & A New Book

Hello All, 

I think the title says it all~ I’ll be back very soon as I soak up every bit of my February vacation. My nephew is visiting and we’re getting up to all sorts of mischief. Haven’t touched my knitting! But he’s been eating all his favorite Auntie Sarah foods. 

I hope you enjoy this episode.
