summer shop update
My shop has just been updated with newly completed designs and creations. Each piece has been such a delight to make. . . I'm so happy to share these glimpses of the finished product!
simple pretty
Spent the morning behind my camera lens snapping pictures of my newly-completed designs. I also caught a glimpse of my favorite wooden knitting needles and a single skein of lovely wool yarn that I've had for many years but never found a use for until now. . . something pretty to photograph.

Glimpses of a restored New England farmhouse filled with contemporary design and old-fashion charm. Each room has a pleasing balance of dashes of warm color and crisp white walls alongside rustic furniture and lots of wood accents. The spacious pantry is my favorite of the rooms - love the organization! See more photos over at Design Sponge.

new life
To round out the week of spring nature themed posts, here are a few of my favorite glimpses of new life at Hamilton House. Everything from grass covered fields, to patches of wild flowers and abundant lilac bushes have "popped" up along the walking paths of my favorite nature spot.

Two more glimpses of spring weight knits that are great for warm days and cool nights. Love it how both designs are such statement pieces, showcasing intricate stitch patterns and flattering silhouettes.
Looking forward to experiencing some sunshine and nature this weekend with my camera in tow. Everywhere I look nature is blooming and I can't wait to take the time to enjoy it up close. A first-of-the-year journey to my favorite nearby nature scene to see the abundant lilac bushes in bloom is a must.
Happy weekend to you!
