The Raven Moon and Me

I love autumn!

And I feel that autumn's loving me right back! Yesterday, my shop was featured by the fantastic Linda of Stylestance Daily.  I was also featured in two fall-themed Etsy treasuries.

My crow scarf was featured by pmsusie, and one of my pumpkin orange scarves was featured by menzocollection.

I'm spreading the autumn love by having an Autumnal Equinox Special.  From now until midnight EST on September 30, I'm offering free shipping for all purchases.  Plus, if your purchase totals $40 or more, you'll receive a free 8"x54" silk chiffon scarf!  Visit the shop for all of the details and some fall accessory shopping!

A much needed rest

Last weekend, I took a much needed break by, of all things, working.  I was a vendor at Shimmy Tecumseh, a weekend-long event that combined belly dance workshops and camping.  The weather was perfect, the people were great, and I had a lot of fun.  I breathed.  I listened.  I napped to the sound of cicadas and the wind blowing through the trees.  And I realized that I need to make more time in my busy schedule to do those things.

Hoppin' Summer

 

My summer has flown by seemingly in the blink of an eye.  It's been chock full of weave designing, fabric dying, vegetable gardening, wedding attending, and friend visiting.  This past weekend, I exhibited some of my work at the Salons at High and Hubbard for Gallery Hop.  It's a brand new salon in Columbus, and my friend Anissa has moved her esthetics studio there.  We had a lot of fun that night, and it was a great way to prepare for a busy week.

For the rest of the week, I've been dying dozens of belly dance veils.  This weekend, I'm headed up to Michigan for Shimmy Tecumseh, a three-day dance event.  I won't be taking any of the workshops, although they sound like so much fun.  I will be chilling out while selling my veils and scarves, having fun with some friends I haven't seen in ages, and meeting other dancers from around the Midwest.
