Addicted to (Owl) Love

I can't stop making owls. I am totally and completely hooked. Shh! these are presents:

Goodness Gracious Great Balls of .....Yarn

My Aunt Kathy (The Millionaire's Aunt, really) taught me to crochet this week. I vaguely remember my grandmother making afghans for us as kids and I know I've learned how to make chains before, but finally I sat down and learned how to put them all together.  It has been quick and easy for me, so Aunt Kathy gave me a bag full of yarn to pull apart and untangle as a starting point for practicing my single crochet, double crochet and edging.

FSAM

Better known as the Fulton Street Artist Market. I tried it out today for the first time. One of my new buds, Karin, let me share her space, which was just perfect for my little set up.  The market was a fun way to connect with other ladies who sew/craft/don't have their heads up their asses.

Folks back their vehicles up to a stall and the customers walk down the center aisle.  Way more laid back than the craft show I did this summer.

Wanna see?

The School Bell's Clangin'

...and it can't come soon enough! The Millionaire and I joined parents all over the country in breathing that sigh of relief for the start of school today. Not before we had a photo shoot though! The kids are wearing tops from windylou at ETSY, made just for their first day of school.

Coming Up Millhouse

I received this in the mail today because I rock.
