SpindleJigs: June 2014
http://spindlejigs.blogspot.com/2014_06_01_archive.html
A blog about Crafts and Kids, with things to see and do. Friday, June 20, 2014. Lamentable Sketches, Falling off Horses, and Perfect Light. We get to the barn, a small barn run by a retired man with retired horses, for a casual couple of hours. My sister Amanda always goes first, ten years into lessons still on a lead line and blissfully content. She is weekly proof of the miracle that riding is for people with special needs.

SpindleJigs: February 2015
http://spindlejigs.blogspot.com/2015_02_01_archive.html
A blog about Crafts and Kids, with things to see and do. Sunday, February 22, 2015. After being stuck in the house for what felt like weeks,. Well, it actually has been weeks. After endless snowstorms and sub zero temperatures. It finally warmed up a bit today. Enough to melt some of the snow and make puddles. Enough that low tide heaved up big blocks of ice that broke free. But most importantly we could go out for a walk. Down to the marina with all of its land bound boats. Whiskey on ice.hah.

http://mariespaulding.blogspot.com/2010_08_01_archive.html
Saturday, August 28, 2010. Rollin', Rollin', Rollin' - in the Spirit of Peace. TODAY I spent a good part of the day felting with a group here in Austin for their Peace Felt Project. If you don't know about Peace Felt yet. go here. Group organizer Mary Tokumaru contacted me and shared that they wanted to create a felted origami lotus flower - emulating their group logo to give to their peace partners. But as it turns out.not one of them had ever felted! They were very proud of their little starter felts.

A blog about Crafts and Kids, with things to see and do. Tuesday, July 1, 2014. Outlander - a literary love affair. That first book became a series now on it's eighth volume. Over the years these books have stayed with me, the characters like a secret family. My mom has also come to love them. I have laughed, cried, been bored, been worried, and happy over these books for almost two decades. This vest is my tribute to book number eight, Written In My Own Hearts Blood. Oh, and for some more serendipity, t...
