it really is!
today it surely feels like Winter is behind us now...
beautiful blue-skies, warm(er) temps & full-on sunshine blessed us today here at the farm.
I hung some of our old quilts outside to air ~
sew pretty....
airing quilts in the herb garden |
my rocker, patiently waiting for me and a glass of sweet tea |
more quilts freshen up in the sunshine & clean air ~ |
my collection of antique ironing boards stands on the shop's porch near our old green wringer/washer |
inside the shop we are preparing for Spring, too ~
little by little....
lightening up with tulips and farmhouse goodies... |
forsythia and statice in an old flower basket ~ |
I moved this big white standing wooden box nearer to the cutting counter...
it is actually a zinc-lined cooler, complete with original Coca Cola bottle opener attached to one side.
It holds nicely our bolts of utility fabrics like osnaburg,
muslin, rug linen, weavers cloth, stitching linen and burlap....

love the chipping white paint on this piece, the original paint underneath the white is a superb salmon-color! |

and a closer shot of the same. |
the little doll on the small blue chair below, was made by the talented
