good december of small things

what else? well, small things. like i embroidered this little train on one of finn's hoodies.

and i got a couple of new notebooks/ sketchbooks--and in them i am writing ideas for children's stories--it is something that, right now, i am actually finally doing and i feel the most excited about. the first story/ poem is called "places where the sun gets caught" and it's about things in november that are beautiful.

this is photo of my boxes and piles of fabric that i have not started yet started holiday crafting with yet. i am existing in a sort of state of paralysis, with long lists of things to make, and feeling unable to start at night after finn is in bed--which is when i could do it. you know but it's semester-end. probably one night, peacefully, i'll just start cutting and ironing and sewing methodically, like an elf. . .
happy boy with tree and excavator! (or elevator, as he calls it)

that's all & i am wishing a good december to all of you, of baking and writing and painting and sewing and knitting and whatever it is you do!
love blue
