Are you having a wonderful morning? I'm sitting here looking out of my window into a thick fog. It reminds me of TV programs I've watch that were filmed in England...pea soup!
I took the pets out to pottie and I could not see them! I was afraid they would get away and run to the front lawn. The street is very busy out front so, we don't allow them on the front unless it is on the porch. I was feeling very panicky until I got them safely back inside!
I've often mentioned I am no good at sewing and the likes, maybe because I haven't tried, however, my #3 sister, Patricia (Pat) can do it all! Watching her work, I envy the skills, speed and creativity she possesses when making a piece. This doll's dress and hat below is one outfit that she finished crocheting quite easily and quickly. Then, the smaller ones she made afterwards. Aren't they darlings?

The quilt on the bed was one of Mom's with all embroidery. I posted them when I first started to blog. Here are the pillows first, of her ladies, then, the pillows with the quilt.
We labeled them "The Ladies"
The design is Ladies of different color with different flowers in blocks, as seen below
Then, back to the pillows again. There are five of us girls, no brothers and she made one lap quilt and pillow for each of us, in our favorite color.
This one is mine below in blue-n-white
Mom knew exactly what was needed. I curl up in my recliner often with my quilt and pillow, especially on those days the fibro decides to visit. I even use it during the summer when Hubster cranks up the AC!
Sewing is definitely not my forte, but in my family, as I'm sure you all can attest, each one have different abilities. In God's Almighty Wisdom, He made us to need each others creativity. Therefore, we are not inept, but we are inter-dependent, right?
This is exactly what I see/feel when I view your creations! No two are alike...variety is pleasing to the eye!
Whatever you create today, I know your project will be pleasing to our eyes! Don't worry if it isn't perfect...are we?
Have a wonderful and sparkling week!
