in which there is an ending, a beginning, and a new adventure
The news is true: The Sanguine Gryphon is disbanding. In January 2012, Cephalopod Yarns is beginning. I’m spending tonight caught between two places, in limbo between 2.5 years of hard work and a future of new adventures. I don’t know what to say tonight. This is hard, because it is both an end and a [...]

pokeberries and pumpkins
Here in Sanguine Gryphon Baltimore, we’ve been dyeing yarns with pokeberry dye, all- natural, sometimes in pumpkins. It’s messy, and fun, and all being done as part of a fundraiser that we are running right now to benefit Team Wench. The auction closes tonight at 5pm, Eastern- please, stop by and take a look? Also, [...]

the 28th list of Very Good Things
Broken out in Flickr, as ever. Rhinebeck was amazing. We received a last- minute invitation to vend and Gryphon, the elves and I threw everything we could find into the SG van and ran off to New York to have a mini- adventure. It was completely unexpected and absolutely fantastic. I find Maryland autumns to [...]

the twenty-second list of Very Good Things
Broken out on Flickr, as ever. It’s a rough week. I’m feeling a bit worse than usual, although upright. Most of it isn’t a big deal- tingling, feeling foggy around the edges, fatigue. The auditory hallucinations, though, are a pain in the ass. It’s been a while, and I don’t really remember how to tell [...]

I am suddenly possessed with the strongest need to quilt. small quilt for julia, originally posted by uzbeckistan I’m interested in shapes, textures and negative space- and while I admire the traditional quilting, it’s just not where I am. I’ve been digging up images of “whole quilting”- not that I know anything about it, I [...]

on the color pink
Cosyknits recently wrote a post about her changing views on color that is so appropriate to how I've been thinking, lately. I am coming to view colors differently- I've been watching myself shift from murky deep dusk colors into the bright and clear tones. There is still depth there, but I've been feeling a lot [...]

currently making me happy
A goblin of my very own, from Goblin Road. (Shortcut to their shop here.) He needs a name, of course. Currently considering: Gilbert, Thornfield, Hareton, Jude, and Farfrae. (My Vic lit obsession, it is eating up my year.) I'm open to other ideas, of course. Suggestions/ votes? He'll be in Atlanta at Stitches South [...]

in which there is a puppy and there will be gutters
Today was rough- a killer headache, incipient flu, a sick kid, a sicker business partner, tech issues, slow downloads and a far- too- full plate, but it all worked out in the end. The kid was sweet, the business partner was sweeter, I managed to get most everything I needed to do done and the [...]
