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
color photo
punching instructions
&
finishing suggestions
I finished mine by attaching it to the front of one of Peter's Coffer Boxes,
but you can finish yours however you'd like ~
here is the link to join ;
and here is where you can purchase a Coffer if you'd like to ;
I do love to see photos of your finished club projects!
Have a *sparkling* November day my friends,
~ Blessings from the Farm ~
