~ The Sweetest Word.... ~

I had rather be on my farm than be emperor of the world.

 ~ George Washington

good old George.

he sure knew best, huh?

I am a self-admitted and heartily proclaimed homebody. 

and very proud of it.

...there really isn't anywhere I would rather be than in my own tattered chair

pulled up snug against our woodstove in this old farmhouse -

unless, of course, it is at my mom's house....

~ or anywhere really, that she is,

that feels like home to me...

our days begin & end at the places we call home.

... some are fancy, others plain

most are lovingly in-between. 

we fill our homes with things & souls we love ~

from collectibles to family & kittens...

old things, new things, broken things, 

and beloved ~ things.

filled too, with laughter and pain and every other emotion known to human-kind,

H O M E is where our hearts are.

So, with that being said, 

~ I thought it would be appropriate to design the next project for our

Primitive Punch Needle Club

using that thought-provoking word...

 

rendered in the style of, and inspired by

and antique hooked rug ~

what better way to celebrate the place we hold so dear?

 

Club members will begin receiving their kits this coming week ~

we do apologize for the delay with us being so busy this time of the year.

kits include:

threads

weavers cloth

paper pattern

I finished mine by attaching it to the front of one of Peter's Coffer Boxes,
