I have pieces that I treasure just as you do- like a partially knitted sweater that my Mother started put never finished. It's still on the needles- row counter and all. <br /><br />Your quilts and pillows-- pictures and pottery- are all so lovely.

Like you I was introduced to gardening by my wonderful Quaker grandfather and his sisters. <br /><br />Secondly I recently recommended your book "Roots, Shoots, Buckets and Boots" to a friend with young children.

I think much of my love for OLDE also came from my childhood, spending time in the Victorian home of my mothers best friend. She had a little herb garden outside her kitchen door, and African violets growing in little clay pots in the windowsills. <br /> Your little bird paintings are so charming .jerilandershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07418564262425621746noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8434499602695302521.post-73121960860668043332012-03-05T08:49:08.903-08:002012-03-05T08:49:08.903-08:00What a lovely post.

So lovely Sharon. I love surrounding myself with things that are once- loved, up cycled and hand made. Your quilts are beautiful. Special Art pieces really add to a homemade life as well. I've got a new stack of books from the library... still too wet to get the new cut flower garden in.. A day of cooking, cleaning and reading for me! <br />Thanks for the peak into your cozy world! <br />lots of love! <br />DebAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12431126111383952372noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8434499602695302521.post-69882083901870761642012-03-02T10:05:20.210-08:002012-03-02T10:05:20.210-08:00My gratitude to you, dear Sharon, for this graciou...My gratitude to you, dear Sharon, for this gracious reminder that it is ok - wonderful even - to slow down and appreciate beautiful works from the past.
