Happy Creative New Year!

Well, it's 2008 at last. I'm always ambivalent about the New Year, what with all the resolutions and taking stock. Sometimes, it all feels too much! 2007 was a busy year, that's for sure. This blog really started taking off and I was dedicated to doing near daily posts. I mostly made that happen, but it is a lot of work and it did take me away from more hands-on pursuits such as sewing projects for my Etsy Shop and for my home. So, for the last week during my mini-blog vacation, I've not only been celebrating with friends and family, I've also been sewing!!

Here are a few things I've been working on:




Visit my Etsy Shop for these and more designs. Fabric swatches are available for all these pillows.

I also spent some time working on a little DIY project in my dining room. I'll be doing a full how-to post shortly, but here's a sneak peak on my new dining room sideboard/storage units.
Happy New Year to you and yours! I'd also like to take this opportunity to thank my 2007 sponsors - Littman Bros. Lighting, Robert Abbey Lighting, Belle Maison and Mystic Valley Traders. Thanks so much for your support and encouragement! And mostly, to you, my readers for coming back again and again, your emails, comments and suggestions for new content. I appreciate your input!
