TUESDAY SUNSHINE.....and other things...

THIS IS A BEAUTIFUL MORNING FOR ONCE...FINALLY A SUMMER DAY...WE ARE SUPPOSE TO HAVE A SUMMER WEEK....BUT I'M NOT SURE IF THAT'S REALLY GOING TO HAPPEN EVEN THOUGH THAT'S WHAT THE WEATHER LADY SAID...WILL SEE...WELL I'M STILL AT MOM'S...WAS WAITING FOR MY SISTER WHO SAID TO WAIT SHE WOULD BE COMING AND NEVER DID....I COULD HAVE DROVE MYSELF HOME THANK YOU VERY MUCH...BUT I WAITED ONLY FOR HER TO SAY I'M NOT COMING WHEN IT WAS ALREADY AROUND 8 OR 9 PM....BUT ANYWAYS I'M GOING TO LEAVE IN A LITTLE BIT TO GO HOME. SWEETPEA NEEDS TO BE FED AND SO DOES THE GARDEN AND I'M READY FOR HOME...IT'S NICE THAT I ONLY LIVE ABOUT 10 MINS AWAY DRIVING TIME FROM MOM...SO LAST NITE I RAN OUT OF THREAD TO CONTINUE TO WORK ON MY TEA BAGS...LOL...(YOU MUST BE SICK OF THEM BY NOW)...SO I HAD SOME LIT GREEN LEFT AND I HAVE BEEN WANTING TO DO THIS CAUSE I HADN'T IN A LONG TIME AND I HAVE A FEW OF THEM...TALKING ABOUT WOODEN HANGERS, CROCHETED...I STARTED ONE WITH THE LIT GREEN AND I REALLY LIKE IT...I'M JUST FINISHING THE LONG PART AND WILL SEW IT TOGETHER..
HAVE YOU EVER DONE THIS, IT WAS ONE OF THE FIRST THINGS THAT I REMEMBER LEARNING, BUT WITH YARN...MOM HAD A YOUNG LADY FRIEND WHO HELPED ME LEARN BASIC'S...WE USED TO HAVE POT LUCK DINNERS AND SHE WOULD SHOW ME WITH YARN...I WAS PREGNANT WITH MY SECOND CHILD AT THE TIME. I MADE BLANKET AFTER BLANKET MAKING MY OWN DESIGNS...BUT MY PASSION WAS TO LEARN THE ART OF FINE THREAD CROCHETING...THERE IS SO MUCH I DON'T KNOW CAUSE I HAVEN'T ANYONE TO TEACH ME..I CAN NOT READ BOOK DIRECTIONS VERY WELL SO MOST OF MY CROCHETING IS DONE BY SITE AND MY OWN IMAGINATION...
I'M HOPING THAT I CAN FIND SOME MORE HANGERS WOODEN...I HAVE ABOUT THREE AT HOME BUT WOULD LIKE TO DO MORE OF THEM..SO I WILL PROBABLY TAKE A LOOK ON LINE TO SEE WHAT I CAN FIND...
LINENS,CROCHET, I LOVE THEM ALL ROLLED UP TOGETHER...THERE'S NOTHING MORE DIVINE TO MY EYES...BESIDES A PRETTY GARDEN BUT SOMEHOW I THINK THEY ALL RUN TOGETHER...GODS PRECIOUS GIFT WITH LABORS OF LOVE....
I LOVE THE GREEN IT SEEMS COOL AND REFRESHING NICE FOR SUMMER ...I'M GOING TO PUT A WHITE SCALLOPED EDGING LIKE THE TEA BAG HAS...THEN I'M GOING TO MAKE SOME WHITE FLOWERS FOR THE TOP....I WILL SHOW YOU WHEN IT'S FINISHED...I WAS SCOUTING UP IN THE ATTIC FOR LINENS, AND FOUND MY WHITE PILLOW CASES WITH CROCHETED EDGINGS...I LOVE THEM, I HAVE HAD THEM FOREVER...GOING TO BE SAD WHEN THEY FALL APART...


I ONLY HAVE ONE OF THESE, BUT I CAN STILL USE IT FOR I HAVE FIVE PILLOWS I KEEP ON MY BED...HERE IS MY TINY BUNNY AND PURPLE SHOE...I LOVE BUNNIES AND BEARS...MY LITTLE FANCY SHOE I FOUND AT A GOODWILL...I LOVED IT BECAUSE IT REMINDED ME OF VICTORIAN TIMES...SOME OF THE LINENS I FOUND IN MY THINGS IN THE ATTIC...I NEVER FOUND MYSELF TO BE A MODERN GIRL, NOT NEVER EVER SINCE I CAN REMEMBER I WAS FASCINATED BY OLD THINGS..I WOULD PONDER ABOUT IN THE BASEMENT LOVING ALL THE SURROUNDING OF THE PAST...I JUST NEVER KNEW THAT I WOULD GROW TO LOVE EVERYTHING ABOUT IT....
I REMEMBER FINDING THESE FOR $1.49 AT SAVERS WHICH IS NO LONGER HERE AND MAKES ME SO SAD....HE HE HE MY BUNNY PLAYING ABOUT IN THE LINEN....TIME TO GATHER UP AND PUT IT ALL INTO A BAG FOR HOME...I HOPE YOU ENJOYED OUR TRIP TO THE ATTIC AND MY CROCHETED HANGER....BUNNY HUGS & KISSES WISHING YOU A DAY FULL OF HAPPINESS AND SUNSHINE...WITH LOVE ALWAYS JANICE...

  1. I've said it before, we really are kindred spirits..for the love of the past times has always been my fancy...a stack of linens with crochet borders--divine for the eye...real eye candy...:) I've enjoyed my trip to the attic with you.

  2. Janice,
    The purple shoe is so pretty, and the bouncing tea pots are lovely also. Purple is my favorite color. I love the Victorian era too. The women dressed so elegant, ya know? I hope you are having a nice summer.
