oh, it’s been a really rainy spring here in vermont…the sun shot through the trees in my front yard right at the end of the day, when the light is all slanted, which makes everything look magical, which is why they use it in car commercials…anyway i ran out and took these:

here’s a 12-second clip of me ringing the new windchimes i made from a bunch of donated random keys.

welcome to my fledgling website.  i’ll be posting things that i like, things that i like to do, and things that i like to make.

i have a lot of projects.

this weekend i finished my “two skirts in two days” project.  took my patternless instructions from Sarah over at One Crafty Girl.  started with some amazing fabric from the best little re-use shop in Barre, The ReStore…
