More time enjoying the summer weather means less time crafting, but I'm more than willing to make that trade. The summer roundups are my crafty equivalent of a squirrel storing up food for winter- when it's time to retreat inside like the cold-fearing wimp that I am, at least I'll have a good supply of inspiration to keep me going!
