I can’t believe September is so far gone! It’s the 18th already. Well I spent the day feeling lousy, even napped, which didn’t help at all, and nothing has touched this headache. While I moaned on the couch, I did work on finishing up some projects that are a bit overdue. [...]

I’m going to make buttons for it. I started playing around in the studio tonight. This is what I made. I plan on making more time [...]

I got a print Gocco for Christmas and I’m sitting here staring at it, feeling very intimidated about using it. I have read about how to use it, I’m sure it’s easy enough, but I’m feeling trepidation about starting. I think I’ll wait a little longer…It’s so pretty sitting there in it’s box, [...]
