These quilts are lovely! The tight color palettes are so pretty--I can imagine a stack of these created over the years and your girls picking out their favorite to take back to college. I have to say also, I'm happy to see your weekly-ish blog posts. I follow you on IG and always find so much fun content in your stories but I like reading these posts with more of your thought process. Have a wonderful holiday season!

I just got an old typewriter from my dad he had out in his barn--he had gotten it from a company he had worked for. It's from the late 60's/70's, huge and heavy. It took me forever to clean it up. I did a Google search on the model I have and there was some obscure website that had a scanned copy of the original owner manual. I was able to disassemble most of the typewriter to get all the gunk out. And I ordered a new ribbon off Amazon!

That's a great word! My OLW for 2015 is see. Still trying that one out. I did sign up for Ali Edwards OLW class--I need the monthly reminder to myself. Your blog looks great and I've been enjoying reading all your decor posts. As part of my OLW, I want to make time to see old friends...I would love to get together for lunch sometime!

It's probably from living in a rural sub-division that does it, but I love a good city. And London, it's a favorite. Since this is my third trip to London in eighteen months, I thought I would list (some of)... Continue reading

It's almost December. The year-end holidays have already begun and it's almost December. And that means, December Daily. I ordered the December Daily kit offered by Studio Calico; I received all the papers, embellishments, and trims but the American Crafts... Continue reading

Just a bit of housekeeping on the blog. I actually started a redo several months ago and got hung up on a bit of coding. Frustration set in and the blog was left alone. For a long time. But this... Continue reading

Lee, thank you so much for the kind words on your blog today! You have no idea how it made my day. I used Clinique lotion for years too, then switched to another line a couple years ago that offered more (cough,mumblig) anti-aging properties.I have several moleskine journals and while I love white towels at hotels, I really like colored towels at home but pristine white bed sheets.

Good intentions. I always intend to blog more, get my scrapbooking projects done, print out or post my photos. Good intentions, I have to say, don't get me very far. Good intentions are like New Year's resolutions--quickly made and just... Continue reading

February 2011 will be remembered as the month that I got sick, stayed sick and got sicker. I came down with the flu on the first of the month--fever, cold, cough, aches--all those Nyquil symptoms. A week later, the aches... Continue reading
