Remember that bag I was knitting and needle-felting this summer? I had hoped to write a post about my progress on it. I’m not writing a post about my progress on it. Because life got in the way. Does anyone else have a crazy November? It doesn't seem like it, because this is National November Writing… Continue reading NaNoWriMo… Someday we’ll connect
Finally…A Front Porch!
Before I hand things over to Ellowyne, I just want to thank the Lord for helping me complete this project that’s been two years in the making. I’ve prayed over this porch every step of the way—from prayers that I wouldn’t fudge on the detailed painting to prayers that I would make the correct cuts… Continue reading Finally…A Front Porch!

Praise and thanksgiving…
Before too much time passes (and we all know how quickly that happens!), I want to post a brief update on the Write on the Sound conference, in Edmonds, Washington. Praise the Lord, first of all, for safe travels, encouraging girl-bonding time, and beautiful weather. When I think of Seattle and its surrounding towns (Edmonds is… Continue reading Praise and thanksgiving…

A Writer’s Prayer
Two writer buddies and I are driving to Edmonds, WA for a writer’s conference this weekend. We leave Friday morning and won’t be back until Monday evening. I don’t know what I’m looking forward to more: the conference, the four days exempt from making dinners and washing dishes, or the nineteen hours (give or take)… Continue reading A Writer’s Prayer

We’ve been shuttered!
“So what have you been up to today?” my mom asked during our late Saturday afternoon phone call last week. I smiled. “I finished making the shutters for my house.” Pause. Then, “For your house…or Ellowyne’s?” Touché, Mom. Considering the plethora of doll-sized work I’ve been doing over the last couple of weeks, her question… Continue reading We’ve been shuttered!

A Teaser
Hello, everyone! Ellowyne Wilde here. I’m back (finally!) with a quick update on how Laurie is coming along on my front porch. She’s allowed me to reveal a few snippets, assuring me she will have the whole thing completed by the end of September. Okay, so she didn’t promise. I believe the word she used… Continue reading A Teaser

DiggyPod: A Review
Two years ago, well aware of my passion for writing, my grandfather asked if I would be willing to edit his autobiography—which he had written over the years using a typewriter—and make copies of it for me and his other seven grandchildren. I happily agreed (I love to type!), but I had no idea… Continue reading DiggyPod: A Review

Have bag. Will travel. Almost.
I’m on vacation for the next few weeks. When you think of the word “vacation,” what first springs to mind? Maybe relaxation. A time to unwind. A yummy drink in one hand and a good book in the other. Or maybe it means going to new places, seeing new sights, doing something different and fun… Continue reading Have bag. Will travel. Almost.

Green Makes Red
So about a week ago, I reached the mid-way point of the intarsia pattern of the Ravenna satchel and what keeps running through my head is the slogan to a TV commercial that used to air when I was a kid: Calgon, take me away! For I am overrun by strands of yarn and self-made… Continue reading Green Makes Red
