{September’s Arrival}

I can’t believe it is September already! Where does the time go? I am in web mode (my part time job) and updating websites thus the little hiatus from blogging the past two weeks.

Here are a few projects that I completed over the last several weeks. Victorian tussie mussies and a new altered fabric dress.
While I hate saying good-bye to summer – I always welcome “cooler” temperatures!

Happy Friday! Hope you have a great weekend!

About Sugar Lump Studios

I am a dabbler. I love to create using all sorts of mediums...pattern papers, stamping, fabric, assemblage, collage, altered art, a never ending smattering of whatever strikes my fancy in whimsical moments. I find creating allows my soul to be fulfilled and love to spend hours in the studio.

    Always so much beauty for the eye to behold! Nancy, you really create such gorgeous fabric art! Love these! I hope you are enjoying the cooler temps! We were actually in Green Bay over Labor Day. Next time I hope to make it longer and who knows, might just head a little further East to see my Pea Shooting friend! Have a great weekend! Hugs!

    Happy September! I’m still happy as our weather is still very much summer-like. Your vintage inspired creations are ever so beautiful and have me thinking of the wonderful tutorials form PW’s 12 Days Event last year-I’ll be making more for this year too-thanks for your inspiration!
