Hello, friends! Here's a little bit about life right now:
This sweater over and over and over again:
I'm blaming the weather and laziness. (PS: I know I love food, but look at how I look at the food! LOL!)
What have you bought?
Well, I haven't bought it yet. We are shopping for kitchen cabinets and I really loved the ones in this photo, but they were out of my price range.
But I think I found something else fab that I really love and that is half the price…crossing my fingers that it works out!
What are you reading?
Just finished my first Nick Hornby novel, Funny Girl, and really enjoyed it. So, I'm about to start a new one: How to Be Good. It's not beach weather, but they really are perfect beach books. Quick and easy reading.
Current art crush?
My current art obsession is stitching and painting mixed together. So, it's no surprise that when I found Tansy Hargan, I freaked out. Her work is so exciting and inspiring!
I love her sketchbook too. It's so fascinating to me!
I hope to own a piece of her work some day!
So, there you have it! That's the scoop on life around here at the moment. If you'd like more behind-the-scenes real life fun, you can always check out my vlog. I post a new vlog to my YouTube channel every Wednesday! This is the most recent vlog:
Thanks for stopping by!

Thank you Julie, I have learned of so many artists through your blog. I love this new one, stitching, painting, etc. in one project is a current thing of mine too. I love when you post your embroidery updates. The funny thing is that I wanted to share is when I looked at Tansy’s Instagram page and now come back here to your blog online, not by the email which does not show everything you post, my eye caught many of the same pieces you post here in the blog.

I have a go to sweater as well when the weather is bad. Of course you have much colder weather then we do! I met you not long ago in San Diego at a Scan N Cut class and we were complaining about the cold, lol!! I grew up on the east coast but have really been spoiled by So Cal weather. We don’t get many winters like this. I agree with those kitchen cabinets, they are beautiful! I’m struggling to do any projects at all since the cold makes it very difficult for me to work! But I’m plugging away trying to finish some long over due UFO’s.
