I'm so lucky all the folks I work with are wonderful but it's a little extra magical when I get to support a local event with all the Appalachian flair I can muster!

If you go to the Beattyville Appalachian Memories Festival, you can snag a shirt with this design on it. ☺️

✨ The inspiration behind one of my original designs: ✨

In our twenties, My husband, Pete and I spent our weekends driving from the city to backpack in the Red River Gorge. We fell in love with its wildness and the way we felt when we were together here. We also fell in love with hearing the whippoorwills song echo through the forest at dusk. We hadn’t heard it before and I still remember it feeling so magical. We decided we wanted to live where we could hear it on our own front porch. A few years later we made the leap to transition our lives to the area full time. This spring we've been here for 5 years!

Whippoorwills have disappeared from a lot of the places they once inhabitant. At almost every market I set up someone tells me stories of whippoorwills not being where they once were and it breaks my heart.

Every spring when they return to our property I feel a sigh of relief. I hope they are always here but regardless, their song is forever embedded in my cells and will always remind me of our journey to our chosen home here on this 42 acres in eastern kentucky.

Yes, they can drive you mad with their seemingly unending call but I still feel rooted to the ground every time I hear it and it feels so important to treasure the times they are here.

✨ Home really is where the whippoorwill sings. ✨
