Studio Update

Hello my friends! The never~ending renovation to my basement studio is moving along. Here is a little reminder of where this all started.

The yarn storage wall is still in limbo. I hope to finish it up this week.

Here are some photos of some of the progress on the main part of my studio.

We put up some paneling to cover the furring strips and cheap insulation. The walls will still need to be finished properly one day, but at least they look better now.

Throw Back Thursday ~ My Old House

I have been having fun with the Facebook TBT (Throw Back Thursday) trend. I have been sharing some of my older patterns on Thursdays that some of my newer followers may not have seen yet. Really I have just been doing this on Facebook and Twitter, but this week, it is going to spill on over here. This is today’s TBT pattern: So, how does that relate to today’s blog post? Well, Kyla LOVES those hearts. So much so that … Read more

Videos to come, and home improvement!

Do you like the new look? I knew what I wanted for a long time, but it was not the easiest thing to achieve. Thankfully, with a LOT of help, I am nearly there.  I like it. I really wanted it to be done by today, because I have a guest post on Stitch and Unwind ~ the blog from All Free Crochet & All Free Knitting. I will be writing a few more guest posts for them over the next … Read more
