Navigating

Amy is looking for a home. 

Early Work Mercantile 

opened last night.

There are still wonderful pieces that I have available. 

This is Amy.

She is named after

one of the Little Women~

I always loved her 

insight.

" You don't need scores of suitors,

you need only one, if he's the right one."

A favorite quote of mine,

that I have often repeated to my daughters as they have grown up.

To say that I got involved in her dress,

is an understatement.

I had this pictured in my head for years now.

I attack my sewing simply

with an elegance to it...

and this was anything but simple.

I was able to get it,

driven by my desire to 

challenge myself.

It took some time. 

....and it was 

so very worth it.

Our Starling colony has

been arriving

as Spring

creeps in...

looking for homes!

And what says,

Spring is coming

as much as sheep?

The wee ones 

are arriving!

 Witch in white is still available.

I love pieces that 

I can tuck

in the dollhouse 

or 

hang on a cupboard door.

these are a perfect size.

of course...

Halloween does live in this house

year round.

....and with it a new 

mousel.

The Moss Witch of County Cork
is still available at EHAG

Mousies are an ever 

source of 

inspiration...

A friend

nudged me about 

adding more mushrooms

this year.

It's been a while...

These are inspired by the ceramic ones.

that my Dad

and I would make 

and sell to Vermont Shoppes

when I was 

a teen.

 As you can tell,

I have been deep 

in creating...

and for me as an Artist,

it is because a part of me needs

to escape

life at the moment

and create a balance

within.

Our family

is suddenly faced

with a member

that has a health crisis.

It has knocked the wind 

out of our sails 

at the moment...

"In Her Widow's Weeds" is still available.

and

I will be sharing

when it is decided to be shared.

Right now,

we are all

just navigating

the start of 

this journey.
