New top for me

One of the hardest things about designing and creating is finding time to do it for yourself. Here is the latest thing that I've done for me, I made this using a linen cotton blend for the brown ling and used a sheer chiffon sari  that I don't wear anymore. The empire waist detailing what is a pre-beaded Paisley design that I picked up at my local wholesale fabric store. I never had a plan for my fabrics or my embellishment and sometimes that's the best way to go. I often try to pick things up along the way and then do something but I just feel with it. 

Japanese friendship Garden

 One  of the great things in Phoenix to do is to go to the Japanese friendship Garden it's in downtown Phoenix it really makes you forget that you're in the city. There is just something so peaceful, tranquil, and serene. About being in this place you can feed the fish listen to Taiko drums or just be at peace with listening to the waterfall and the natural nature  surroundings. The garden is open May through October they are closed during the hot time here. Not having the beautiful Fairmount Park Ave., Riverside, CA to go and rejuvenate myself at. This is by far the closest I've come to something of that nature herein the desert. I love to take whatever I'm crocheting or hand sewing up and spend the afternoon morning what ever in the garden as I work I find it gives a better energy to my work.

Sick days

So for the past few days I have been sick, the browning sick make my fibromyalgia flare up. It's truly an awful feeling and it was the first time that, I have had a flare like this in the three years that Michael and I have been together. So he'd never seen me like that when he came by yesterday because he knew I was sick he just looked so worried and helpless. I hate that look because there's nothing I can do just tell him that it will pass. But the sweet thing is that when he came by he brought me flowers so sweet.
