the littlest berrypicker

 I think today might have been one of Sadie's happiest days ever.
 Finally, she can pick as many plants as she wants...AND there are blueberries (and blackberries) as far as the eye can see.



Its always a little sad when it's time to go home.

  1. LOVE the pictures! They should be illustrations for the book: Blueberries for Sadie. Did you make her Cuspik? or can you buy them up there? I'd like to get one for one of Sadie's "cousins". Also, do they make anything for little boys?

  2. I did not make this particular kuspuk for Sadie. It was a gift. You can buy these up in Nome, or I can make one for Sadie's cousin (which one?) They do actually make them for boys--they are usually a solid color with fancier trim and a different kind of pocket.
    Also-I have a pair of baby slippers for the new little Swanson baby. I can pop them in the mail and send them to you this week.

  4. Lovely. Beautiful pictures, and I really love the kuspuk! It's one of the most beautiful ones I've seen on a kid that size in a really long time!

  5. Thanks Kim! Ironically, the lady who gifted me the kuspuk was apologetic that the fabric was "old-ladyish." I think its very beautiful too. I love the colors!

  6. Mom- I thought of you when I took those buttons out of the kiln. Even if you don't win the giveaway I have some saved out for you:) Blue ones too!
