when my hands work together.

I found a moments peace today, in between picking up toys, making lunch, and quiet time. So, I let my hands dig around in my craft stash. I let my mind run a little wild.
I am in love with these buttons.
I spent a good hour with a needle in hand.
And really, a pink zipper can work wonders for making your day happy. You can't look at a pink smile and not feel at least a little flitter of joy in your heart.

Before I knew it, I was done. My hands created something useful. Something beautiful.
And now, I am planning another wild rendezvous with the needle and thread soon.

Mmmmmmmmm, pink zipper! Wild floral vintage print! My hands are in love today.
Thanks nimble hands, you amaze me every time.

And then there's the camera. And the word art. The common thread running through all of it. You are way too much fun.

Emily...I love seeing all the wonderful creations you make from what I find for you at the thrift stores!! Did I send you that fabric or did you find it? I love it! I'll be on the lookout for you tomorrow when I go out again.
love you,
mom
