crazy beautiful


The sisters behind maricor/maricar do some amazing embroidery work.


I want that P (heehee)!


Now I really need to learn how to embroider. These are so cool. I'd love to have any of these framed on my wall. Oh, they have an Etsy store, too.

resolutions


I started a new project today, and it got me thinking about the new year and resolutions. Normally, I don't give myself resolutions. New Year's resolutions just seem like setting yourself up for failure. Instead, here are somethings I'd like to get do this month:

1. Ride my bike more! Last month was cold and wet, not the best combination for bicycle rides. Today I brought out that blue beauty and road to work. Oh, I also need to get batteries for my bike light for night rides. 

2. Finish the things I start. I now have one quilt that is basted but not quilted, one quilt top, and am almost done with another quilt top, yet today I decided to work on something completely new. Why? 

3. Spend less time on the internetz (damn you Pinterest!) and more time writing and reading. 

4. Take more pictures. 

5. Eat more veggies!!
