damariscotta day





















emily invited me on an outing last week that was a perfect distraction for me (from my constant "what-is-zoë-doing-right-now?" thoughts as well as some stitchery work that i was very happy to put off for a day). i drove to her house in topsham and then she drove us to to alewives fabrics, where i wandered aimlessly, admiring and stroking the beautiful fabric (emily was more purposeful, but she also spent more money than i did!). afterward we browsed at maine coast book shop and had coffee and scones and chatted for a long time. it was such a lovely day.

and below, please join me in admiring emily's crochet skills. this photo doesn't quite accurately capture the gorgeous contrast of her blue scarf against her sweater. i am inspired to learn how to crochet, and i know just the person to teach me!

Aw! I wish I could teach you. I've been told I'm a very good teacher, which Jeremiah scoffs at openly.

Oh, I've always wanted to go to that fabric store. You have to take me sometime!

Liz Woodbury said...

yes, let's go sometime! actually, we should swing by emily's and pick her up when we do it. i'd love for you to meet each other.
