Weekly Pattern Wednesday

11/4/2015

This week I haven't gotten a new pattern made. I have a cold which is making me feel a bit rundown. I have been putting my energy into other projects which will be ready to share soon.

I'll share a mandala that I created a while ago with you today as inspiration. Stay inspired even when life is slower and you aren't being as creative. There is a time for slowdowns in every persons' life as well as high energy creative times.

This is what greeted me outside this morning when I was taking my kids to school. It's cold but beautiful all the same.

Have a wonderful week everyone.

I have a loving husband who thinks I'm a bit crazy to be so obsessed with art. I am a mother of five children from ages 21 to 5. I spend most of my time mothering and keeping house. In my free time I like to play with textiles, art journaling and painting. I have a degree in textile and apparel studies with a design focus. Right now I am more interested in fiber arts than apparel design, but I don't know where my journey will take me.

I love to read and am not often without a book. I love fantasy and science fiction novels. I also love reading a lot of mainstream fiction and historical accounts. Art books and magazines are another favorite of mine.I also dabble in gardening. I want to get out and garden more when my little ones are a bit older and less of a challenge. I enjoy being outside, at least when the weather is nice. I love animals. I also live with two cats.

I live in Alaska with the beauty of the natural world all around me.
