a long long long time ago, when i was a few days past my due date for the hazelnut, and she didn’t have a stocking to match the rest of the family, and i happened to find myself at a sewing event with my quilt guild, i decided to make her a patchwork stocking, even […]

christmas related activity of 2022

Posted on December 28, 2022January 29, 2023by sarah

i think i mentioned it in my cookies post, but i really was not feeling the christmas spirit this year. i really don’t know what was up. maybe it’s because the kids are older and not really into the fun things we used to do. or because the pandemic has made everyone dead inside. but […]

other december happenings, including christmas.

Posted on December 31, 2021January 12, 2022by sarah

and now, for my standard monthly recap, minus the things that were exciting enough (or i had too many picture of) to have their own posts (hazel’s cake, her birthday, christmas baking, and a quilt). turns out, there’s still a lot to talk about. firstly, anna decided to try out for her middle school basketball […]

(and that doesn’t even count hazel’s birthday, which falls right in the middle of all of it). firstly, there was the annual decorating of the gingerbread houses. this year, i opted […]

scrappy christmas patchwork forest.

Posted on December 7, 2021January 10, 2022by sarah

as it turns out, i have acquired a slightly ridiculous volume of christmas fabrics over the years. you see, it’s hard. because new stuff comes out and you have to buy it. and then christmas season happens so fast that you don’t get much time to use up much of the fabric. and then after […]
