Your little random quilt for the kitchen is so pretty. I am working on a quilt for our family room. While our big brown leather sofas are practical and comfy...they aren't very pretty.

I was able to go for a short walk in the garden today and managed to snap a few photos in manual mode while I was out there... These well loved terracotta pots were found in an old shed on my husband's grandmother's farm. Isn't the patina amazing? I transplanted... Continue reading
