Made in April
Earlier in the month I made a couple of new table runners with our Laguna Sunrise fabrics (available in stores in September 2024) to add a little more spring to our home decor. Patterns are available for both runners in PDF format in my Etsy shop:
Since sewing the runners I’ve been spending the majority of my sewing time working on projects for our upcoming book along with some fun little projects with strike offs from a future collection.
Five Things I’m Loving Right Now
- Weather…again! I need to mention it as much as possible as a favorite before the summer heat arrives. We even had some rain this month which is a little unusual.
- Travel + Family…a quick trip to Salt Lake City for a belated anniversary celebration. Then, the following week my youngest and his fiancée came to visit to celebrate his birthday and Chelsi’s birthday (just a week apart).
- Reading: I am in love with the book Uptime which I finished just last evening. This might just be my favorite personal productivity book ever. I’m starting it again today to take more notes.
- Home Improvement: I was recently able to get some updated shelving in my closet, and I’m loving the improved organization. The new flooring has been a little delayed, but as soon as it’s installed I’ll share the finished photos!
- Tulips: I was able to attend the Tulip Festival at Thanksgiving Point in Lehi, Utah this year for the second year in a row. Once again, the tulip display inspired me with all of the beauty and color! (If you live in or near Utah you can still visit through May 18th).
