I am finding inspiration from my new job. Working outside the home has left me less time for creating but I am actually getting more done. Go figure! Also inspiring me is the anticipation of your new class at Big Picture. Cannot wait! It will be my birthday present to myself!

I am inspired by a fabric store I stepped into today. The smell, the texture.... the nice ladies who are so helpful. I run my hands thru every bale of cloth, almost. I imagined what I can do with them. Heavenly!

I was recently laid off and in my newly found spare time decided to tackle the boxes of old family pictures. Seeing all the old photos has started endless creativity flowing. I am inspired daily by this project and so many ideas are already written down to start on.
