Cotton Harlequin Bug 🪲✨ This week’s prompt for @thetuesdaycollective introduced me to the wonderfully colorful Cotton Harlequin Bug—and I couldn’t resist giving each little beetle its own decorative personality. Inspired by the i
Tea Time at Hedgerows End 🫖🍂 There’s something comforting about the ritual of putting the kettle on, choosing a favorite cup, and settling in with a good book. I hope it brings a little coziness to your sewing, decorating, and everyday ritu
