A Sewing Night to Remember

A few weeks ago Elizabeth and I held a sewing night at the Cotton Shop in Provo, Utah to make skirts for our Skirting the Issue Event...and we loved every minute of it! When we approached the Provo Cotton Shop about holding a sewing night they asked how many women we expected to attend.  We said we hoped for 10.  And then the night came and we were surprised....ladies came and went all evening....and at one point Elizabeth counted over 50 people in the room! What an excellent surprise! Here is a ... View the Post

The Art of Homemaking

The Art of Homemaking….on liking what you do.

Today's art of homemaking is all about me needing a reminder.  I have been caught up in my cleaning the house duties...and being a bit of a whiner.  So, here's my throwback post to mostly myself ;) When I was a young mom (and still somedays) I felt very unproductive.  I felt like all I did all day long was clean faces, clean bums, clean clothes, clean kitchens and try to take a shower once in awhile throughout the process.  And after awhile I started loathing the everyday work of ...
