sewing room fabrics
Before we dive into the fabrics for the guest room, thank you so much for all of your encouraging words about Mustard Seed Mentoring yesterday! I am looking forward to working with those who signed up so far! If you’re still thinking about it, I will be on Instagram Live and Facebook Live over the […]
join me on my next step of faith
I know I’ve been cryptic about “things I’m working on” and “new projects” for the past few months. Those vague phrases are actually referring to several irons in the fire. You know about some them like the fabric designs I’m working on for Spoonflower and the oil painting course for beginners, but there are a […]
May 2019 Favorites
May was a good month. That’s a simple, but true way to say it. I’ve loved the cool spring weather in Minnesota. I enjoyed being out on walks in the mornings and sitting on the porch in the evenings. And, while it’s been stressful at times, I have been loving work. I am working on […]

What’s your number?
I’ve heard about the enneagram number for years, but I never even looked into taking a test. Finally, enough people mentioned it to me that I thought I might as well take the test and see what my number was. I found one online that claimed to be fast and accurate (and free), so I […]
