Last week, after weeks of beautiful weather it finally hit me that we were almost into winter and there was still no signs of real fall weather or snow. As I sat at my window looking outside at the bare trees and the leftover leaves I decided to create a new scarf. Instead of using my standard bright colors I pulled out fabric, fiber and embellishments reflective of a fall landscape.
Come and take this journey with me.
