Weather change again...More crocheting...Linens


Well as you know I have been busy crocheting away...started on a lite green Tea bag holder last nite... I figured I would make all the purses then add the neck pieces and buttons last...I went home for a little bit yesterday to feed sweetpea, I feel so sad leaving her there but Mom's is not the place for her. I have to take Mom to the Doctors this morning and we got a newer car so the brake lite needs fixing so we have to drop by to the person who sold it to us...and then o the bank..so a few things to do..I really don't want to go outside today. I need to make my own doctors appointment and check whats going on with my asthma! It's going to be warm today. anyways I have some linens to share with you today...So pull up your cup of Tea and hang out with me for a few....I found this sugar bowl and creamer that I had bought alone time ago at the second hand store..I never used it so I washed them up and got my blue glass Tea cup out..I thought they were so cute with the bubble look...like the milk glass.
I enjoyed using them...they must have in storage for 15 years...Just silly but I couldn't get to everything...but finally...I'm going to finish going through it all...I did a lot a few years ago then got sick with my panic and couldn't finish...Underneath is some of the linens, I love the blue and white this is a place mat with napkin with pretty blue Roses, using my hammered tray with I just love to pieces...
I love this kind of work...here's another piece that is very old and has some stains

The edging is starting to raval away now ... but I love it just the same...
Nothing like a hot cup of Tea....Why is it that a stack of linen looks so pretty to my eyes...It's funny how that is...stacks of linens, Tea cups, dishes...

I have two of these pretty pillow cases, they have his & hers on them..A huge white bow with pretty delicate blue flower and leaves
And my tiny little heart pillow case...

One of my favorite hot pads, I don't use it it just hangs on the wall under the cabinets in the kitchen...

Wishing you a fabulous day today...with love Janice...
