A few gems

In 2009, I discovered a few new blogs that I've added to my sidebar & subscribed to.....take a peek!

Little Green Notebook - Interior Design. Her post today highlights '09 projects.
Anne Marie Horner- fabric designer. Here's her most recent Quilt Market booth.
Sis Boom by Jennifer Paganelli - fabric designer. Here's my kind of office chair.
Nesting Place- interior decor. I love this collection of robots.
Cluck, Cluck, Sew- quilting. Here's her '09 project collage.
Simplify, by Camille Roskelley- fabric designer, quilter

These ladies inspire me to create & to surround myself with beautiful (& fun) things!
