Cats! because, obviously, I'm obsessed with cats.

And yarn. Because, duh, cats love yarn.

I'm starting to prepare for Surtex! I'm excited to go back this year, since I had to miss it last year (because Ryan was graduating from medical school and we were getting ready to move to Portland).

Speaking of Portland, we've been here for 7 months already. 7 months! Unbelievable.

I'll be sharing many more patterns here in the coming months as I get deeper into my Surtex prep.... I love getting ready for this trade show, because it's a major excuse to create tons of new art and beef up my portfolio. Excitement!
