there are blue skies in my dreams
and laughter that seems un-ending
there are green grass fields there
and happiness and hopes for tomorrow
Just a few photos from our weekend taken with my Instax 210. We were in our old neighborhood, so we passed by one of the parks we used to take the boys to and found it torn down and replaced with this new…weird structure. There was a slide there that had NO EDGES on it. AND it had an awkward twist way up top. It was terrifying! I was kind of bummed to see this new place because I took some pretty lovely photos of the boys there when Andrew was a baby. Oh yeah, there are also no swings left behind at the park. I’d be so upset if we still lived in the area!

Soooo, it took me a few days, but I have SO totally warmed up to my Instax 210!
These are photos of photos. I tried my scanner and…just no. It’s horrible.

I’m about 80% done with the booklet, you guys. It’s pretty satisfying to look at the print preview in Publisher and see all that info and photos put together and…! It’s just really cool. As soon as it’s done, I’m going to start some previews of the patterns to introduce them. I want the booklet to be available in both print and PDF. If you buy the printed version, you will get the PDF as well, but there’s just SOMETHING about having a booklet in your hand to read and look through. Do you know what I mean? The print edition will probably be a limited thing and I’ll send along some goodies (like postcards and maybe some thread for you to crochet your own doily brooch) with each.
I hope your week started off wonderfully!

Hello, friends!
Things have been rather quiet around here as I’ve been putting most of my efforts into finishing up this booklet. I have finally made all the technical edits I wanted and only have to actually put the thing together. I’ve written an intro (I felt like a big ol’ dork) and composed a glossary with abbreviations used in the patterns. It’s really coming along!
The photo above is my son snuggling up with doily blanket #2. It’s bigger than the other one, but the pattern isn’t as complicated. It’s still pretty stunning, though. I’m totally keeping it.
Also–I finally caved and got an Instax. I chose the 210 because it reminds me of my Spectra. Oh, I miss using my Spectra. Someone give me a million dollars so I can buy lots of film. My SX-70 is feeling neglected, too.
