Monday Musings ~


Made a little progress last night ...
on the Sepia Sampler I'm stitching ~

I did have to frog-out the entire bird once :(
but
it is fine now :)




i'm in love with the floss colors I chose for this ~
...subtle, aged & old.




my stitching chair sits in our Keeping Room 
~ and I enjoy lots of natural light there…
although today is a bit cloudy,
my green glass still glows on my table.




I've been collecting pretty jars & other glass containers 
to make tiny terrariums out of 
for our 
Spring Open House & Market
Saturday May 23rd

...this one sits on the table as well ~




I'll try to finish this today ~
then I need to work on a bunch of tiny chickens 
{wait till you see!!!}
that I'll be bringing with me to the
Virginia Rug Fest
on April 18th.




I love what I do 
and am blessed everyday to be able to share it with all of you ~

Hoping you have a beautifully creative day my friends!

~ Blessings from the Farm ~

Hi Lori
What a beautiful design and yes,the colors are beautiful as well.

Never seen a stopper like the one on the tall green bottle - very pretty.

Wish I could attend the Rug Fest - should be lots of fun
