It's been five months since we occupied our new space. It's a bright happy place and I love going to work --- but, I think I may drive my assistant, Eileen, crazy. She works on Tuesday and Thursday and without exception, when she leaves, I move things large and small, all around the studio.
Round and round, they go.
I might have an illness. I just don't know. I really like to rearrange things. I remember, as a child, frequently moving my bedroom furniture.
This arrangement feels like home. It's cozy and just might stick.
Do you like it?
I do.

The older Chapman children go back to school next week and my sweet little Isabel will be spending some more time in the studio. In an effort to strike a balance between home and work, the studio hours are changing a wee bit, beginning Monday, September 10. Barring an unforeseen circumstance, I will be in the shop
Monday through Friday, from 9:30 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. We'll close for an hour mid-day to eat lunch, ship and take a little stroll through town.
Over the years, I have mastered many crafts. Scrapbooking was my first obsession. Then rubber stamping, followed by sewing. I am excited to share a new project with you which incorporates my expansive stamp collection and newfound passion for hand-stitching.
These fabulous panels are going to be crafted into tote bags and will be making their debut later this month.
