Hello, lovely lovelies♡ I woke up this morning......and you were on my mind ♪♪♬♪♬♫ Just channelling Crispian St Peters. =) Though, I really have been waking up in the mornings and thinking of some of you, of late♡ I hope you are travelling okay, all things considered; living in this alternate universe we find ourselves♡
Here in my little universe, within the safe cocoon of my humble home, sheltered from the ails of this sorry world; and where the summery garden embraces me every day, I've been fashioning more flower baskets. I was a wee bit excited on Friday as I thought there were enough flower baskets for the quilt and the piecing of rows could begin. But. Alas. No. It seems more are needed. Now, if this girl's muddly head wasn't more often than not, lost in dem arty farty textile clouds, twirling and whirling around all things fabric, ribbons, flowers and baskets, she would've realised the layout she imagined was just not going to work. So, with both feet once again on terra firma, and with a new layout decided upon, the appliqueing of new baskets is under way. Though I'm loving all these pretty baskets, the appliqueing of the baskets is wearing a bit thin....just a tad. So, perhaps next week there may be a Flower Baskets flimsy to ooh and ahh....and wax lyrical about.
One of these things is not like the other...
Just lovely colors--reminds me of coming Easter tide days....such pretty baskets of flowers, Kim.
ReplyDeleteThat wool for the sweater looks so soft...don't you just love cabling???
It used to be my favorite thing to do...so rewarding to see the twists and turns come out...;))) Hugs, for a great week to come Julierose
Lovely baby sweater...can I come and take a cable knitting class with you?? Those baskets of flowers are just what I needed--we still have lots of snow and cold here but March is fast approaching...
ReplyDeleteWhen I was a child, my grandmother gave me a piece of Lavender Rose china for every birthday and Christmas. I have a full set and use them once in a while. Do you just have the little creamer or the full set of dishes?
We sang those same Sesame Street songs when my daughter was little. She also loved to watch Mr Rogers and even had a zippered sweater that she wore when we watched the show.
Take care.

we watched He Man and She-Ra (princess of power) and Transformers and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles instead of Sesame Street - till i became a nonna and tuned into Daniel Tiger and Arthur for my grandbabies ... anywho, your baskets are my favorite things today!!! real flowers instead of snow covered brown grass - thank you for adding some color to my day!!!
ReplyDeleteThank you, I love the flowers. I did notice that you'd placed 'real' flowers into the baskets you'd fashioned. Such lovely flowers and baskets, too. The basket quilt will be outstanding as I can see that each basket is fantastic and each will glorify the quilt. Thinking of you, also, Kim. Blessings...
