Twyla Tuesday

Hello dear friends!
I hope you've all had a great week.
I want to thank you all for leaving sweet comments on October Afternoon's blog
in response to Lindsey being the guest designer this month.
I don't guess I have to tell you how proud I am of her.
Her designs were created through much work and consideration on
her part.  She totally put her heart in each of these creations.

I wanted to share with you a couple of my latest finds.
This sweet little Hull planter.  I'm loving pink and yellow together!


The vase is McCoy and I believe the planter is Shawnee.
Just little treasures that make me happy. 
I love coming home from the antique malls with items like these.



I have created a pattern for a crochet cap!
I plan to make several of these in different colors and list them in our
etsy shop.  If you have any requests let me know. 
I enjoy making them so much!  It is almost the season for them and
I think they would make great gifts!



Another thing I love is occasionally making myself an afghan.  Most of the time
I make things for other people or to sell, but this afghan is just for me!  It's soft and yummy
with it's mostly pastel color scheme.



Another thing I love is my bloggy friends.
By the way, I was curious about the word 'blog' and where it came from and
discovered that it began as the term 'web log' and just gradually got shortened
to 'blog'.  I thought that was very interesting.  It is so
wonderful that we can connect this way and share little bits of our
lives with one another.  I am continually in awe of the creative and inspiring women
in the world.  Whether you are an artist, a homaker or a collector, you all amaze me
with your wisdom, hospitality and grace in inviting us into your corners of the world.
Thank you so much for making my life so full.
Wishing you all much happiness this week!
