ICYMI: golden mandala is now available as a PDF digital download pattern!

one of my favorite things to post about on instagram is my reading life. the comments and discussions are always so much fun. no, it has nothing to do with embroidery, but yes, it has everything to do with slowing down and getting cozy with a hobby that brings me joy.

i recently read (and loved) a little life, by hanya yanagihara. have you read it? it is a tough one, but so beautifully written, and one that i will be thinking about for a long time. my current read is bitter orange by claire fuller, and i love it so far. and i just finished the new jane harper book, the lost man = ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

another recent good one: the good neighbor (audio version is narrated by levar burton!)
