Apron for K



I collaborated with my mother-in-law on this beautiful linen apron.  I did the embroidery on the front pocket, which is some sprigs of rosemary.  The apron was designed and sewn by my mother-in-law.  The linen was an old piece she found in her stash.  I am still blown away by how beautiful it turned out. ~ Amanda

November 2014






November has been full of cooking, cleaning, a little sewing, some photography and a little bit of rain (over 4 inches so far).   I forgot to mention my little 8 month old Arlo is starting to scoot!!

Time With Arlo








Yesterday I got to spend the whole day with just my Arlo.  It was nice to have some one on one time with my little man.   After finishing some of our daily chores we walked around the yard and captured what we found.

Knit Baby Hat


I love this little knit hat I made baby Arlo recently.  The pattern is from the purlbee.com and the yarn I found in my stash, not sure of the brand.  I just love the green color of the yarn.

Dogwood


Lately the boys and I have been relaxing under the dogwood tree.  Warm days are slowly coming to an end here in the Pacific Northwest and the dogwood tree leaves will soon be gone.  Hopefully the drought will be over soon, but we will see.  I have moments here and there to work on various projects, like the little sprig embroidery I finished.
