My name is Lee Ann and I am a craft junkie. Is there anyone out there that can relate? I go through withdrawl if life forces me to go too long without creating. When the workday is too long and I need a hit, Etsy or Artfire can fill the need for a little while. I adore seeing what others are doing! It spurs my creative juices. I have one lady at the office that kind of “gets” the need to create but mostly I am on my own with it. I doubt VH1 will create an intervention type show for us….or maybe they have. Anyone seen hoarders?!
Have a super HUMP day.

As this month winds to a close, I realize that I’m not going to devote just a little time to getting settled in the new house – it is going to take a while. Consequently, I have taken up sewing again cause I have been missing it. I have several ideas spinning in my head – just need the time to implement them. Time. Would love to know where to purchase some of that. Or even if I could figure out how to get by without sleeping one night a week. Sigh. My brain just plans so much more than my feeble body can possibly follow through with. Am excited about some new ideas for recycling/repurposing fabric. Cannot wait to get into the new, much larger work room and get at it! Hope your summer is being good to you – and your air conditioner is keeping up!

So it only took me one week to get back on here – I believe it is a record! We have physically in our new house, but in the “boxes in every room” stage. I am excited about my new craft room. I will have an industrial machine, plus my serger & sewing machine, and plenty of room to organize the ridiculous number of plastic tubs which hold my raw materials. I’m holding my own working this week, but have hope that this weekend will bring opportunity to settle in. June 12th brings another Frisco Farmers Market appearance, yeah! It is a terrific setup. If you are in the Frisco, TX area on Sat morning, I encourage you to come out. Fresh food, vendors, families, dogs; it is reminiscent of the familiarity of days gone by. More soon!

I hope this finds your spring full of colors and laughter. I had hoped to spend the Memorial day weekend sewing but we are moving to a new house so that will come first. Then I will have a much bigger room to put my machines and let my ideas bloom like the flowers!

Although I have made an attempt to separate my personal life from this biz, truth is, this is part of me. So I need to share that I received a call that a much beloved 21 yr/old nephew died Sunday night. Travel is necessary to be with family and say goodbye so I will be away from the website the remainder of the week, May 12 – 16th. I’ll respond to you as quickly as I can next week. In the meantime, my wish is that you have a calm week.
