There is still so much to be done around her, but my get up and go has got up and left…Oh, going off on a tangent, remember that public service ad with that line, something like "When my get up and go, has got up and left, I hanker for a hunk of cheese". My Mini would like that line. She's a huge fan of cheese. She recently said, "Mom, don't cook dinner, just leave the meat and vegetables in the refrigerator, and lets just have cheese, now and forever. I only want to eay cheese."
Well, anyway, back to my point. I'm not motivated. Or maybe I'm motivated in a different direction than I feel I should be. But lately, I have a stack of things that should be getting done, those apples should be processed, there is some butchering to be done, there is a lot of reorganizing and cleaning to be done. But I'm in my glass studio making buttons, and in my livingroom finishing the next sweater that shall be adorned with some of the aforementioned buttons.
The baby now has a Tiny Tea Leaves sweater…the only gal who doens't have one in this house, is Mama. Must fix that soon. That sweater is so great. It's so simple, but a wonderful cozy, thrown on over anything sweater. Yes, Mama needs one, too. But here is The Baby's very own sweater, with Mama made buttons. The yarn is Victorian Pink, Lamb's Pride. I bought the yarn last year to make a snow suit for The Baby, but went with a sewn snow suit, instead, so the yarn became this sweater and a soaker for her.
Amy: I love the new glass buttons! They are so beautiful on the cards in the shop too. What a great idea and beautiful work!
How awesome is that? To have locally made buttons even!
Thank you! I’m very excited. They have been very well received, and it got me back in the studio, which has been great fun!
Those buttons really are gorgeous. I’d forgotten the cheese ad until you posted the link; could this be the origin of my cheese addiction?!?
