springing back

hi all. It's good to be back in the loop. I took some time off to fully submerge myself in motherhood which I haven't been able to do since Z was born. I realized that she will be 2 years old already next month and so I wanted to just focus on her and my family for a little bit and take a break from whatever I could in my work life. So now I'll be easing my way back into the circuit, I know I missed a lot but It was a renewal that I needed for myself and now I can be excited about my passions again and my blog.

The need for spring is getting sooo stressful here on the east coast, winter just doesn't want to let up yet. Maybe the feelings of spring like these wonderful fabrics from golly bard (i've been admiring Holly's work for a while now)will help to entice the sun to come out and play more.
