This month we are sewing the giraffe!
I spent a day in the studio last week embroidering the spots with silver thread.
It was a truly good use of my time, even though especially because I had so much computer work to do. It cleared my head and I was more productive afterwards!

Have a great week!
Thanks for posting this, Carla. I have bookmarked it and passed it on. I love the comment about fingerpainting. I still mix my palettes (water based paints) with my fingers – sometimes I have a different color on each finger 🙂
adorable!
