Nature Nerd

I'm a nature nerd.  Luckily I have a friend who shares my excitement for large acorn caps and such.  On my walk this morning I resisted picking up fall leaves for about a block and a half.  Once I started I couldn't stop.  Embarrassed to encounter a passerby as my bouquet grew, it didn't stop me from adding to it!

Nature's color palette is so inspiring!  


The veining of this selection caught my eye!  Nature just knows what colors look great together!!!






So many shades of yellow and reds!







Even the browns are beautiful!  Would they think I was crazy if I strode into Nordstrom with a leaf and said "I want a pair of boots this very color"?











Go take a walk!

Soft Launch

About to "soft launch" my new cross-stitch design company:  The Nebby Needle!  I have one design packaged and ready to go...will deliver it Thursday.  I wasn't going to jump in quite this soon...I wanted to have more ready to go...but an opportunity presented itself and...well...HERE I GO!

This is the first design from The Nebby Needle:  Cabin In The Pines
