A Lively Hope #40
My favorite book of the year (maybe?) + what I've been working on lately

In My Art Journal:
Reading
The Correspondent by Virginia Evans is perhaps going to be my favorite book of the entire year. It’s gorgeous and deep, heartbreaking and real. If you only have time to read one more book this year, please allow me to lovingly place this one in your hands. If our taste overlaps at all, I think you’ll love it.
It seems unfair to place any book next to The Correspondent. But I also recently read and enjoyed The Situation Room by George Stephanopolous. This was a fascinating look back through the last several Presidents of the United States and how they each used the Situation Room in the White House during various crises. Really, really interesting!

In the Shop:
A brand new Stick and Stitch collection! Available as a PDF for you to print yourself or on water soluble paper that will be mailed to you. These cute little autumn motifs are sized to fit in 2 or 3” hoops and make a darling addition to cloth napkins, clothes, table runners or as hanging ornaments. Leaves, pumpkins and mushrooms galore!
Here’s to making the time for the things we love to do!
