Hello! Today we’ll be continuing the topic of last week’s post with stories from Grandma’s Attic: All Grown Up. Let’s start! I enjoyed the books in this series documenting the older years of the characters better than the preceding ones. Which, incidentally, is the case with many of the books I’ve written about here on the blog. 😉 I guess…
Hello! Today on Modest Monday we’ll be taking a look at a handmade shirt and skirt. Let’s get started! You might recognize this skirt as the one I wore in this post. Ever since I made it, it’s quickly become one of my favorite skirts, handmade or otherwise. And, as it happens, I also made the shirt! (Keep an eye…
Today on Simply Saturday we’ll be taking a look at my latest amigurumi: a panda bear. Let’s get started! I made this as a gift for one of my niece’s for her first birthday. This is the same pattern used for the Winnie the Pooh bear (and care bear) in this post. I also linked to the pattern in that…
Hello! Today on Reading Wednesday we’ll be talking about the series of stories from Grandma’s Attic. Let’s get started! These stories are geared more towards younger readers, but I think that any age would enjoy them. The stories are written as if they were being told to us by the woman who had lived them.

Today on Modest Monday I’ll be sharing an outfit that features both a denim jumper and Jellypops. Let’s get started! You might think that this jumper looks a little familiar. That’s because I made another jumper, using the same pattern, last year. I’ll link to that post here. I actually like this denim one much better than the green one….
Hello! Today on Simply Saturday we’ll be talking about making skirts out of shirts. Let’s get started! Well, in this case, it’s not a shirt, it’s the top part of a dress that was cut down into a dress and–you get the idea. And it’s not a skirt for myself, but for my two-year-old niece. I made another one for…
Hello! Today on Reading Wednesday we’ll be taking a look at The Wide, Wide World. The books, that is. 😉 Now, if you’ve ever read Little Women, you’d probably remember that this is the book that Jo March is crying over in one of the chapters. And yes, the two books do begin rather somberly with Ellen Montgomery and her…
It may be a little early, but people wear red for Valentine’s day, right? Let’s get started! Yesterday we braved the cold in order to get pictures outside. Not after trying several indoor locations, without much success, however. 😉 With this outfit, I suppose I just felt like wearing a lot of red. Oh, and I had also just made…
