Quilt and Embroidery


 

Incorporating embroidery onto simple patching and bright color.

My Spring Garden


 Spring garden of April 14th. 

It looks much different now. The irises really bloomed and they are a lovely purple/black. The roses are amazing also. This is the first year of real rose exhuberance. The non-climbing one is showing some yellow leaves already in the interior if the plant. Why, why? I guess I'll spray for fungus? It is to early for bugs I think.

Hoopty or Hooptie

Either way I love the word!

More Home Improvements






Here is the wall paper mural in the entry. It is faded and torn on both sides but I can't bring myself to remove it.

Home Improvements






House projects have taken up much of my time this winter. When all the work was done on the house and I could actually CLEAN again I had a burst of energy and painted the entry way. It turned out pretty much as I thought -- or maybe hoped - - it would. There is a picture of the ceiling here also. We have a new (to us) light fixture and need to take the electrical risk and hang it.
