~ Sunday Morning Musings ~

Good Morning Friends & Folk ~

a very hot & humid Sunday, but hey, it's another new day isn't it?

remember to take time for yourself today ~

paint something, stitch something, work in your garden....

soothe your mind & soul.

a morning walk-about to check my wild gardens...

The black eyes susan's are escaping!

i love when they mix with the queen anne's lace....

 {{ for those who might not know the difference between queen anne's lace and wild white yarrow:}}

THIS is wild white yarrow:

this is called 'rabbit's foot clover, or hare's foot clover...

i have recently found it growing ALL over the place {Nancy b.!!}

oh! hello.

yesterday i started and finished this tiny sampler...

stitched over one on some old linen I have {me thinks it to be 32ct?}

of course this will be framed under glass {by my resident woodworker/hubby}

and hung on the wall of my dollhouse {#Maryblacksdollhouse}

 

then last night, i started to needlepunch a 'rug' that will be hung above the mantle

 {also in the works by said woodworker/hubby} 

the design is of my beloved Suzy ~ 

{who Miss Mary Black loved as much as I}

I'll finish this today and perhaps begin on some curtains?

a peek inside...

as Mary loves the birds as much as I do, 

I hung a small birdhouse outside her bedroom

so she can enjoy their chittering and song ~

{notice the bed is gone? I am making a wire bedframe for the handmade ticking mattress I made}

 also added a small pincushion and a quartz crystal on top of her trunk...

and this photo below shows just where in our old farmhouse,

Miss Mary Black's dollhouse is...

right above my favorite spinning-wheelin our Keeping Room off the kitchen ~

I hope you will follow along on our journey

 of creating tiny-things 

for Mary ~ 

 we can't wait to show you what's next!
