ode to the coming spring. | a poem

Feb 29, 2020 | Sonya Cheney

Your toesin the grass growing more lush by daythe deep greenvast before us. (Your first spring.) Crisp eveningsinviting us to sitbeneath the maple trees,your small body growing, curling into sleep in my arms;the fresh air breezesings a lullaby among the leaves. Your eyesfollow the crimson cardinal acrossthe cloudless sky for the first time. My heartis…

trust in a witch.

Feb 22, 2020 | Sonya Cheney

Was it in middle school, when a girl on my bus let me borrow–and ultimately keep–a copy of A Witch’s Guide to Faery Folk? Or maybe it was before that, when I was reading the Circle of Three series in elementary school. I never even finished it until a deep dive on Amazon in college earned me…

in a hole in a ground there lived a hobbit.

Feb 15, 2020 | Sonya Cheney

All right—if I’m honest, I don’t want to live in a hole in the ground, though I’ve heard it can be very efficient in terms of heating and cooling. But I have been realizing more and more lately that a new dream of mine is to, essentially, live like a hobbit. Now, in what I…

sharenting.

Feb 08, 2020 | Sonya Cheney

Before Finn was born, one of the subjects that plagued me was whether or not to post photos of him online. Seemingly everyone I am friends with does it—celebrities do it—and overall it just doesn’t seem like something that would even come to mind among all the other details of having a child. There are…

a quilted christmas gift.

Jan 25, 2020 | Sonya Cheney

About a year and a half ago now I started learning how to quilt thanks to my friend Lydia, and for this past Christmas I made my third completed quilt as a gift for my friend Katie. One thing I love about quilting is the creative opportunity that it presents. Each quilt that I’ve completed…

jan 2020 | current favorite podcasts.

Jan 18, 2020 | Sonya Cheney

In an effort to keep the TV off a little more often, I would say the majority of my time is spent on Spotify listening to either any of a million playlists or, more likely, listening to a podcast. Right after Finn was born, I would keep track of the days of the week by…

favorite books of 2019 mini book.

Jan 11, 2020 | Sonya Cheney

Last summer, I joined rukristin’s Awesome Ladies Project online community to help on my scrapbooking journey, and one of my favorite projects that I’ve done so far as part of the site is her “Best of…” course. It’s quick and simple to fill out the sheets she provides (although choosing favorites isn’t exactly easy), and…

zines, scrapbooking, and storytelling.

Jan 04, 2020 | Sonya Cheney

For months I’ve been obsessed with scrapbooking. It’s on my radar as a possible creative activity for years, since around the time 30 Days of Lists started, but it’s only recently that I’ve finally begun dipping my wallet toes into it, and as I was working on a mini book of my favorite reads from 2019,…

twenty-twenty incoming.

Dec 14, 2019 | Sonya Cheney

Hello there. It’s been quite the year, hasn’t it? The last few months of my life have been both completely different and entirely the same: I still watch an unhealthy amount of Netflix, but the difference now is that I do it with a small human in my lap most of the time. Of course,…

Hello there!
I’m Sonya! I like horror movies, knitting, and witchcraft.

A moment please for this gorgeous LOTR yarn from @ A moment please for this gorgeous LOTR yarn from @longdogyarn. I really had to reign myself in for this collection, so it was so, so hard to choose just one color for a project, but the way I said, "Ohhhhhhhh!" and could feel myself light up after opening the package means I made the perfect choice. (And I'm just such a sucker for anything inspired by Eowyn's "I am no man!")
