Revealing a creative momentum through the means of Mother Nature over here at Simmer and Stitch with these rain showers!

While we let Mother Nature do her thang in the gardens, providing abundance that will morph into teas and simmer pots this Fall, help me purge my current stash over here at Persnickety by Jen Farley !

Medicinal tea blends to sooth your soul, hand embroidery that will make you want to put it in a time capsule and random homestead goods like heirloom seed packets give you a little insight of the vibe Simmer and Stitch likes to keep.
