Spider Bites & Sunrises

So I think I've been bitten by a spider. We have an overwhelming amount here. I'd rather them, then something else. We try to be civil- but apparently someone was upset. Now I have a small welt above my ankle. I used some Merry Hempster's salve on it, which despite being from college (say around 2000) it still seems to deliver a soothing effect.(Note to Self: Must purchase newer salve for when baby arrives)

Here is my new inspiration board. I'm still searching for that cuter than life paw print fabric.

Up around 5 am, I watched the sunrise from my window while eating a bowl of Honey Nut Cheerios, organic strawberries & soy. Now Jasper is on the arm of the couch next to me enjoying our quiet, little space. ( Although the neighbor tends to vacuum at 7:30 am! for reals!)

Last night we watched Project Runway, of course. I must say the tan, sort of surfer guy, might be my least favorite- but then again there is Suede who comes in close second. The people don't seem to have the same pizazz the other designers had. I'm sure I am just coming off a
Christian Siriano of some sort. Maybe I'll snap out of it.

Yesterday morning, after dropping Z off at the train I stopped on the side of the road for this lovely lady:

A Samsonite hard case, large suitcase in bright red! It is in pretty good condition, except for a little of the lining coming undone. I plan to utilize it in the bedroom, for all of the baby clothes that are sizes 18 months & up. It will be nestled on top of our closet. I'm so proud of it!

In other news, here are some sneak peeks into my latest coffee cuffs


and here are some- WIP pieces


I just love the chalkboard color mixed with the bright, fruity fabric!
Hope you're having a great day! Happy Thursday
Little Hobos!
