Happy 4th of July! We celebrated by going to a church breakfast, cleaning the house and I fiddled with my blog look a bit. See all those cuties up there? Love those happy faces! I can't believe there will be another one in just over 4 months. Where does the time go?
I've been working on many projects simultaneously and I'm feeling a bit scattered because of that. I really must learn to do one project at a time. And then clean up my table afterward. My goodness.
Speaking of projects, here is a sewing project that I just finished. Meet TreeBeard.
He is a variation of a pattern from Softies by Therese Laskey. This is a lovely book that everyone who enjoys sewing soft toys must own. And really, who doesn't love sewing something like a little tree? Or a tooth?
TreeBeard will reside on the couch in the loft along with the beautiful pillows that are currently languishing unfinished in my studio. Hmmm, I sense a terrible pattern here...
TreeBeard was wildly popular with the young man. They became immediate buddies. They frolicked all over the house until...
TreeBeard, while saving C from a fate worse than death, suffered a terrible accident. Take a look at his left eye (on the right side of the picture for those of you who did not take anatomy in college.)
Oh dear. Poor guy. Now he's in a pile of broken and abused toys waiting patiently for me to restore him to his former glory. It may be awhile. Alas...

P.S. Forgot to mention in my other comment that I love TreeBeard and your new header is absolutely adorable. :)
{yeah, I'm procrastinating and that's why I'm here for the second time in a few hours!}
