Sorry for checking out for a bit there. The heat made me a little sickly. I think the secret to my health getting back on track is the weather cooling down {please, oh please!} and more siesta. I wouldn't really mind the rain because i know it will keep everything cool and breezy. The heat has been a real downer these last few days ~ i think, i may have found my nap mojo, at least temporarily.
Something else on the craftastic side ~ it's pretty exciting that Christmas is on the way. It may take a little longer, but i know it's coming and that helps immensely with keeping things relatively cheery. I didn't get much in the way of crafting done. As you can see, my pile of projects are waiting for me. I'm seeing lots of red. :)
More soon, Stay Healthy!
Sending warmth and cheer to you and yours!
naps...ohh how I love them. They really need to be MANDATORY - so refreshing to the spirit and FORCES me to slow down. I hope you have a beautiful week sweet one. I keep looking at your book roll on the side and "The Artists Guide" is on my list. xoxoRobin

Heat does that to me too, so I can empathize. Hope you get some relief! I love the sneak peak of your next crafting project. That sewing fabric looks fabulous! Would love to see more of that too!

Oooh. What is that circular thing with the plaid border? Is that a home-made button of sorts?? I'm so intrigued by it!!!

I can't wait to see what you create from your lovely fabrics and notions! I know exactly what you mean weather wise. We have finally gotten the fall snap & weather has turned from the 100*+ to cool and rainy. A relief & now adjusting, I only miss the sun for her shine not her heat! Have a creative and wonderful week. ~Theresa

Hi Jacqueline,
In this part of the world the cold is slowly moving in and the days are getting shorter. We are still on 'summer time' but not for much longer.
Love your fabrics.
Stay cool!
Best wishes,
Ingrid xx

Glad that you are feeling better! I think I could use some nap mojo. Good luck with your projects—the Leica design on top of the pile looks awesome so far.

Posted by: Jacqueline | October 19, 2010 at 09:42 AM
Jacqueline, I couldn't agree with you more. The heat is certainly on for the past one week with little or no rain at all. Please take good care of yourself and plenty of water to hydrate yourself.
Posted by: BK | October 19, 2010 at 10:04 AM
nap mojo, huh?! i like that! :)
Posted by: kerri | October 19, 2010 at 10:14 AM
Hello dear friend, indeed it is sooooooooooooooooooo hot these days. Even air conditioning is not enough (for me). September was a much cooler month. Hope you stay healthy and take care! Am looking forward for a white christmas in Europe this year.
