Darling friends,
While I was home during the week my mom exercised her amazing sewing talent. Ever since I was a little girl I remember my mother's sewing machine as a sound of comfort. After she had put us kiddies to bed, she would sew bibs for her business--and I would fall asleep listening to the sound of her ambition.
Mom bought a bunch of flour cloths (I think that's what they're called), and some really adorable cupcake fabric to sew a little applique. I watched as she carefully ironed each piece of fabric, sewed it to the cloth, and delicately added pretty bows to the folded center of each.
Last night, I got the pictures I ordered from Rachael's wedding in the mail. I purchased a 200 photo album a week or so ago for these photos. Before beginning my day today, I organized the pictures and then put them into the album. I actually ran out of space--I couldn't include the "after-party," but perhpas it is better that those pictures are left out
Today, I am back visiting my cousin Sarah at her medical town =). We always have so much fun. This was a very spontaneous visit, in which I decided to leave upon receiving an early morning text message from her asking to visit. Here I am!! We had a delicious fish dinner, prepared by Sarah. This was her first time making fish by herself--I told her as long as we didn't die, I'm sure it would be delicious--and it was, and we're still here haha!
Time to go walk to Friendly's for ice cream. We have a big day planned tomorrow! Stay tuned.
Love Always,

I love sewing... even though it's not a "Ralph Lauren" creation... I still feel like I'm making something that's all my own~
