Quiet Time



 "My candle burns at both ends; It will not last the night; 
But ah, my foes, and oh, my friends, it gives a lovely light!"
-Edna St. Vincent Millay

This is the result of a lovely little stroke of genius that I had today... a knit lace luminary sleeve. Doesn't this just make you want to take a deep breath and rest your eyes? or dip into a long hot bath?

Details will be forthcoming.

Pretty!

I read on your bio that you're a homeschool mom. I would like to ask, how does homeschooling work? Do you just buy supplies like textbooks and teach children or is there some list, etc?

From SITS :D

That's nice. I remember when I was younger and my mom signed me up for crochet classes. I enjoyed them and I've been thinking of starting to crochet again.

Saw your comment on the SITS featured blog today and popped over for a visit. Enjoy your day.
