curly

Some twisty curly leaves I found in the front yard. Such beautiful shapes.





Here are a few books I'm eyeing, and think you guys might be interested too. I'm especially excited about the Japanese-y one and the Lotta one.

Lotta Jansdotter's Simple Sewing for Baby

    What treasures! I’m almost addicted to sewing and crafting books. I keep a pile on my bedside table…

    oh - nature will always be a constant inspiration for so many!

    those books look wonderful - I keep telling myself to go get a book for sewing...I'm afraid I may be procrastinating!
